Die Casting Advantages for OEMs

Original Equipment Manufacturers require dimensional consistency and outstanding surface finishes when die casting their custom parts and components. SKS’s metal casting services for OEMs are ideal for high-volume production runs of small to medium-sized components, delivering custom parts that match your project’s exact specifications. Additional die casting benefits for OEMs include:

  • Advanced production speed
  • Accurate dimensional stability
  • Tight tolerances
  • Variable wall thicknesses
  • Fast production times
  • Reduction in scrap
  • Extended tool life

Zinc Alloy Dies Casting Services for OEMs

Original Equipment Manufacturers rely on zinc alloy die casting methods to produce robust and versatile parts that can withstand extreme environments and years of use. Zinc alloys are the easiest to cast of all casting metals, providing excellent physical and mechanical properties. The advantages of using zinc alloys for your OEM die casting needs include the following:

  • Lower tooling costs
  • Longer tool life
  • Near net-shaped geometries reduces the need for future machining
  • Good vibration-dampening capacity
  • High yield strength and elongation
  • Faster production time
  • Numerous finishing options

Aluminum Die Casting Services for OEMs

Due to its vigorous and lightweight nature, aluminum is one of the preferred metal choices for Original Equipment Manufacturers. Aluminum die cast parts offer enhanced dimensional stability, corrosion resistance, and a high strength-to-weight ratio. Aluminum is also readily available and provides a lower cost of ownership compared to other metals like stainless steel and nickel. Additional aluminum die casting benefits include:

  • Good mechanical properties
  • Lightweight
  • Corrosion-resistant
  • Low cost
  • Excellent castability
  • High thermal and electrical conductivity
  • Dimensional stability

Secondary CNC Machining Services for OEMs

The machining process of die cast parts must be considered well before any order for the tooling is released. A careful evaluation of machined requirements can lead to redesign for net shape die-casting or near-net shape with a reduced number of operations. Depending on your application die casting needs, SKS offers secondary CNC machining services to complete your OEM die casting needs.

To evaluate if CNC secondary services are suitable for your design, request a quote with your specs, and we’ll work with you to determine the best options for your project.
