Zinc die casting camera housing is durable and lower cost. With it to replace aluminum camera housing will save much expense in Communication and network deployment. In term of same application , but its cost is lower much than aluminum one.
Camera Housing is often made of aluminum alloy material due to main reasons that it has a good heat sink and light weight. But its cost is very high, request expensive raw material cost and high machining cost. So aluminum camera housing spend more expense. If this kind of camera housing can be replaced by other cheaper material, That will save much expense.
How Zinc Die Casting Camera Housing Is Formed ?
Zinc is pressed into cast die under high pressure, then formed various shapes parts and be cooled into solid metal desired parts. This is die casting manufacturing procedure. As custom zinc die casting part, the camera housing can be formed into metal parts at reasonable temperature. About 450 degrees at the temperature. Compare to aluminum die casting part, which is melton and formed at 800 degrees, That is too easy and lower cost saved.
With delication development of the industrial demands, People are also exploring more zinc products to be used in more fields. Zinc die casting is suitable for miniature precision parts , and durable and lower cost. But also It has many common properties of other metal materials. Also zinc is recycled and eco-friendly and being friendly to the environment. So zinc alloy material is made of their products is up to ISO 14000 ISO and European Union Rohs and Reach standards etc.
Zinc Die Casting Camera Housing Cast Process
Zinc die casting camera housing process belongs to hot chamber die casting. It is suitable for high precision small and medium size cast part, and has a fast cast cycle and lower mass production cost. It allows more intricate appearance and steady integrated internal structure cast part.
Camera Housing Design And Casting Die Design and Making
Following client intention, and collaborating with client engineering team, and design camera housing appearance and interial structure through cutting-edge design software and metal flow simulation tool. According to the 3d model of the housing, design high effective and durable casting die when the best tool steel is selected. Printing design 2d drawing of the casting die, and deliver these documents to mold technician and make physical precise steel casting die.
Preparation For Die Casting Process
Firstly, We have a good preparation for high effective mass production. It is need of melting Zamak 2 in the integrated furnace, filtering impurites within the molten metal by overflow method. And maintaining steady temperature molten metal in the reservior. The low melting metal require 380-420 degrees to become liquid metal, exhaust less heat energy.
Metal Part Cast Cycle
Secondly, We adopt hot chamber die casting machine to conduct mass products at high efficiency. By gooseneck mechanism, the machine’s hydraulic piston push the molten metal into the pre-heated casting die under high pressure. The molten metal fills the cavity of the die fully in a few seconds. The casting die accepts water cooling, and makes the molten metal solidified quickly, then ejected from the die. As cast zinc die casting camera housing is cast.
As Cast Part Post Process
As as-cast part, which may be deburred for removing excess gate gaps and hidden burrs. Worker use mechanical and munual options for high effective post-process. Rough zinc die casting camera housing is viberated for removing gate gap, manual filing, abrasive wheel for grinding the burrs, sand belt for grinding the burrs and cnc machining for high precision process which removes hidden burrs and have some drillings and tappings.
The Cast Part Surface Finishes
Zinc die casting housing, which surface is also treated in order to prevent corrosion from harsh environments and worse weather. So this casting camera housing is coated: powder-coating. Improve the surface finish of the cast part and enhanced durability.
100% All Check
Inspecting all finished parts, and conduct bond power and corrosion resistance testing and check the appearance of each part. Sometimes some parts require having a fit assembly for finished products and functional parts. Wrapping each finished goods with wax paper avoid scatch occurred. Sort out different categories and stick QC pass label on the each one.
