Zinc-Aluminum Alloys

http://www.baldwinmanufacturing.com/zinc_AL_alloy.html

Zinc-Aluminum Foundry Alloys 8, 12 and 27 comprise a new family of zinc casting alloys that have proven themselves in a wide variety of demanding applications. They are engineering materials well suited to applications requiring high as-cast strength, hardness and wear resistance. These three alloys offer designers and casting specifiers viable, cost-effective alternatives for their component requirements. Compared to copper, the most expensive of the common foundry alloys, the lower inherent cost of the...

Magnesium Advantages

http://www.baldwinmanufacturing.com/magnesium_advantages.html

The high-purity magnesium alloys have physical and chemical characteristics that are superior to those of aluminum or zinc alloys. As a result, die casters can produce higher quality products — faster, easier, and for less money than ever before. Mdash; Because its tensile yield strength is equal to that of aluminum alloys, magnesium has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any commonly available material. Castability and Dimensional Stability. Mdash; Magnesium offers high ductility, excellent dimensi...

Magnesium for Diecasting

http://www.baldwinmanufacturing.com/magnesium_for_diecasting.html

Magnesium (Mg) has a specific gravity of 1.74 g/cc, making it the lightest commonly used structural metal. Alloy AZ91D offers the highest strength of the commercial magnesium die casting alloys. The magnesium alloys exhibit the best machinability of any group of commercially used metal alloys, although special precautions must routinely be taken when machining or grinding magnesium castings.

METAL CASTING chart for low to mid volume needs

http://www.baldwinmanufacturing.com/metal_casting_low.html

Permanent Mold, or Gravity Die Casting, produces parts that have better mechanical properties than sand castings, with better surface finish and a competitive part price. They are less porous than die-castings and can obtain thicker wall sections for structural usage. Common applications include, truck frames, engine mounts, large commercial door frames, and other structural applications. Most common and exotic alloys for commercial, industrial and aerospace markets. Rubber Plaster Mold Castings. This pr...
