This machine is designed for precision die casting of aluminum components—ideal for public lighting housings and other aluminum parts used in automotive, electrical enclosures, consumer goods and industrial applications.
Key specs include: cold-chamber type; power 18.5 kW; locking force 3000 kN; injection force 110 kN; ejection force 158 kN; die stroke 400 mm; die thickness range 250–650 mm; ejection/ejector stroke ~100–110 mm; hydraulic oil capacity 620 L; machine dimensions 6450 x 1640 x 2900 mm; machine weight approximately 12,500 kg.
It supports typical die-cast aluminum alloys used in industry, such as ADC12, A380 and A356. Alloy choice depends on part requirements; consult the supplier for any specialized alloys or process adjustments.
The machine features an energy-saving design (optimized hydraulics and control strategies) that reduces power consumption during operation. Actual savings depend on production parameters and process setup.
It uses an advanced PLC-based control system for precise process control and automation. PLC options can typically be integrated with peripheral automation such as part handling robots, conveyors and sensors.
The machine is offered with customizable voltage options to match customer requirements. It typically requires a three-phase industrial power supply; confirm exact voltage and frequency with the supplier at order.
Because of its size and weight (around 12.5 t), a reinforced foundation or mounting area and adequate floor load capacity are required. Lifting equipment (crane/forklift) and professional installation are recommended. Exact foundation drawings and site requirements should be requested from the supplier prior to delivery.
The machine has a 620 L hydraulic oil tank; proper hydraulic oil maintenance and filtration are required. Additionally, die casting requires die cooling (water circuits/chillers) and melt handling equipment (melting furnace/ladle) which are usually supplied or specified separately.
The machine supports die thicknesses in the 250–650 mm range, with a die stroke of 400 mm and a locking force of 3000 kN. Tooling should be designed to fit within these mechanical limits; consult tooling engineers to optimize die layout and venting.
Cycle time depends heavily on part geometry, casting mass, die design, cooling strategy and process parameters. Contact the supplier with sample parts or specifications to get estimated cycle times and throughput rates for your application.
Regular maintenance includes hydraulic oil and filter changes, inspection and replenishment of lubrication points, checking and servicing the ejector and clamping systems, PLC and electrical inspections, and die maintenance (cleaning, coating and repairs) according to a preventive schedule.
Yes—spare parts (hydraulic components, seals, sensors, PLC modules, etc.) and technical support are typically available from the manufacturer or distributor. It’s recommended to clarify lead times and recommended spare parts list before purchase.
Standard safety provisions generally include PLC-controlled interlocks, emergency stop functions, guarding around moving parts and hydraulic safety devices. Exact safety features may vary—confirm safety package and local compliance requirements with the supplier.
Yes—common customizations include voltage options, automation/robot integration, material handling peripherals, and process control upgrades. Discuss integration needs and available options with the supplier to ensure compatibility with your line.
Lead times and warranty terms vary by supplier, configuration and order size. For current lead times, shipping options and warranty details (parts/labor coverage), contact the manufacturer or authorized distributor.
