A question we get frequently is “What are some design factors that can help you reduce the cost of casting projects?”
While reducing cost isn’t always the focus when planning your casting project, it is typically a factor. We wanted to provide two safe ways to reduce overall cost of casting projects while improving the design.
Use of Lighteners
Strategic use of lighteners to help reduce mass and overall cost. Lighteners can provide the maximum weight savings while keeping the design where it is needed for structural integrity, rigidity, and strength. Our team is experts in ensuring your design meets your needs while keeping your costs in mind.
Using Appropriate Draft
Also, using appropriate draft will minimize part distortion during ejection, secondary straightening processes, and also increase die lifespan. To learn more about the die casting process please reach out and contact our engineering team today.
Each projects’ design is unique and we will work with you to meet all your requirements while keeping cost in mind. We look forward to it!
