SIMPLIFYING DIE CAST TOOLING
When it comes to manufacturing, we believe simple is always more effective and we do our best to avoid features which increase the cost of manufacturing and cycle time. This includes undercuts, bosses, and holes that need either subsequent machining or retractable core slides in the tool. They also tend to cause flash on exterior surfaces that lead to additional removal costs.
Die Cast Tool Redesign
Our engineering team is dedicated to creating the best tooling possible. So, even if you bring us a design that was previously cast elsewhere, we can optimize your design for die cast manufacturing to better serve your business needs.
Eliminating Secondary Operations
Undercuts beneath bosses form features that prevent the part from being ejected by the die. By carefully redesigning the component, our engineers can eliminate subsequent machining or the addition of core slides required in a tool.
Die Cast Parting Lines
The parting line is the line left on the part where two die halves meet. The part may need to be trimmed along this line and the trim must be configured to it and maintained.
Our engineers can simplify the parting line configuration that will reduce the cost of manufacturing and maintaining the trim. In some cases a simplified parting line removes the need for a clean-up operation on external surfaces.
