What is Magnesium Die Casting?

Magnesium die casting is a highly specialized manufacturing technique used to produce precision metal parts and components from magnesium alloy. This process involves injecting molten magnesium into a meticulously designed die or mold cavity under high pressure, enabling the creation of intricate shapes that leverage the unique properties of magnesium alloy.

The process starts with the preparation of the magnesium alloy, which is melted in a controlled furnace environment. The molten alloy is then injected into a steel mold, engineered to withstand high temperatures and pressures while ensuring the precise formation of the final part. Once the molten magnesium fills the mold cavity, it rapidly cools and solidifies under pressure, resulting in parts with exceptional dimensional accuracy and intricate details. This method is particularly advantageous for producing complex geometries that are challenging to achieve through alternative manufacturing techniques.

We work closely with our customers to selecting the optimal alloy to meet your component’s performance requirements and environmental conditions.

Notes: There is a large selection of magnesium alloys available for applications like powertrain components operating at temperatures over 120°C (e.g., automatic transmission housing). These alloys are tailored to operate at high temperatures without “creep,” maintaining bolt tension and sealing surface flatness.

Benefits of Magnesium Die Casting

Magnesium alloys offer significant advantages in die casting, making them suitable for various industrial applications:

Applications of Magnesium Die Castings

Automotive: Steering wheels, seat frames, transmission cases—reducing weight and improving fuel efficiency.

Aerospace: Aircraft components—reducing weight and enhancing performance.

Electronics: Housings for electronic devices—combining lightweight properties with EMI shielding.

Industrial Equipment: Machinery parts—meeting demands for lightweight and durable components.
