The Zamak die-casting is Hugely Beneficial

Zamak die casting is a beneficial process as it fully exploits the characteristics of the alloy in question, which are unique in the sector and highly performing. Zamak (Z-Zinc, A-Aluminum, MA-Magnesium, K-Copper in the German language), is in fact an alloy that mainly constitute of high purity zinc mixed with small percentages of aluminum, magnesium and copper. Zinc gets hard and resistant due to the presence of these elements.

At first it was used for decorative applications or contour pieces. By time it has been able to perform more important functions. With the other high-performance casting materials such as aluminum, magnesium and brass, the mechanical properties of Zamak are now compared. In particular, with Zamak die casting you can easily get better finishes, precise walls and ribs because it is a particularly uniform alloy, which does not need subsequent processing.

Because of the high fluidity and low melting point of the zamak ,products are obtained with minimum tolerance limits and complex shapes, which with the other alloys is difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. This is the reason why Zamak Die Casting Process is highly used and preferred to other alloys, particularly in components sectors, the furniture, hardware and clothing. In addition, compared to other processing techniques die-casting of Zamak is less expensive as a result the production costs of the pieces are lower, but to the quality of the final products this is not detrimental.

Zamak die casting and recycling

The advantages are not at all restricted to quality, but also embrace the environment. Compared to other materials Zamak die-casting from Zamak Die Casting Manufacturer has in fact a reduced impact on the atmosphere because for the transformation of the raw material into the finished product it collects less energy. Zamak is a material that lasts over time as it has an excellent resistance to wear and does not require frequent replacement, with the consequent savings in terms of disposal and processing. Furthermore, the products are completely recyclable if the die-casting of the zamak has been carried out correctly.
