Aluminum Die Casting Services for Custom Parts
Aluminum die casting is useful when buyers need repeatable parts, thinner walls, better surface consistency, and stable production volume. The risk is that tooling, porosity, machining allowance, and critical surfaces must be reviewed before the die is made.
We review aluminum die cast parts from the drawing and expected production plan. The discussion normally includes alloy, wall thickness, draft, ribs, ejector areas, machining surfaces, surface treatment, inspection points, and packing.
Aluminum Die Cast Parts We Review
Buyer Questions Before RFQ
When is aluminum die casting suitable?
Aluminum die casting is suitable when the part has repeat demand, relatively thin walls, stable geometry, and a need for good dimensional repeatability after tooling is confirmed.
What risks should be reviewed before die casting tooling?
Porosity, wall thickness, draft angle, ejector position, machining allowance, sealing surfaces, cosmetic faces, and inspection requirements should be reviewed before tooling.
Can die cast parts be CNC machined after casting?
Yes. CNC machining is commonly used for holes, threads, sealing faces, bearing seats, datum surfaces, and areas that need tighter tolerance than the casting process alone can hold.
Before Sending an RFQ
If you are comparing suppliers or preparing a drawing package, start with the RFQ checklist. It explains what information helps us review material, casting route, machining allowance, inspection, and delivery before quotation.
What We Check Before Tooling
For die casting, the most expensive mistakes usually happen before tooling is built.
- Alloy choice such as ADC12, A380, ZL101, ZL104, or other aluminum casting grades.
- Wall thickness, ribs, bosses, draft, parting line, gates, ejector marks, and shrinkage or porosity risk.
- Machining allowance for holes, threads, flat faces, bearing areas, sealing edges, and datum surfaces.
- Surface treatment requirements such as polishing, blasting, painting, powder coating, or anodizing when suitable.
- Inspection expectations for key dimensions, material documents, appearance, burrs, leakage, or X-ray if required.
- Sampling plan, trial order, repeat production quantity, packing, and delivery schedule.

What to Send for an Aluminum Die Casting RFQ
Die casting RFQs should include both part details and expected production information.
- 2D drawing, 3D model, alloy grade, surface treatment, and assembly function.
- Sample quantity, annual quantity, expected repeat order, and tooling expectation.
- Critical machined areas, threaded holes, sealing surfaces, datum points, and tolerance notes.
- Inspection, leakage, appearance, burr, packing, and delivery requirements.
