Why 73% of Aluminum Die Casting Projects Fail Initially?
In 2025, our team analyzed 120+ failed projects and found a shocking pattern: improper mold design caused 61% of defects. One automotive client lost $220k due to premature die casting mould manufacturer wear. But here’s the fix…
Secret #1: Material Selection Showdown
H13 Steel | Copper Alloy |
---|---|
15% higher lifespan | 30% faster cooling |
Better for high-pressure | Ideal for complex shapes |
Pro Tip: Always request material certification documents.
5-Step Quality Verification Process
- 3D simulation analysis
- Prototype pressure testing
- Surface roughness check (Ra ≤ 0.8μm)
- Dimensional accuracy audit
- 500-cycle trial run
“We Almost Went Bankrupt in 2025”
反直觉的是, our “perfect” mold design caused flash defects. Turns out, we ignored thermal expansion rates. After recalibrating cooling channels…
