ALUMINIUM · ZINC · PROJECT-FOCUSED SOURCING

Project-specific die-cast parts in aluminium and zinc alloys.

GermanSTS supports technical clarification and project-focused sourcing of die-cast parts. Suitability and availability depend on alloy, geometry, tooling, finish, quantity and application.

ENGINEERING FRAMEWORK

Consider material, geometry and process as one system.

Die casting can support repeatable production and complex geometries. Aluminium can support heat dissipation when appropriately engineered.

These benefits are not blanket property guarantees. Suitability depends on alloy, wall thickness, mechanical load, tooling concept, finish, environment and application.

SCHEMATIC ASSESSMENT AND SOURCING FLOW

MATERIAL OPTIONS

Alloys selected for each project.

  1. Aluminium alloysADC10 and ADC12 can be assessed against part and process requirements.
  2. Zinc alloysZamak 3 and Zamak 5 can be assessed for suitable geometries and property profiles.
  3. Recycling routeRecyclability must be evaluated for the actual selected alloy and material stream.

POSSIBLE PART GROUPS

Structures, housings and precision components.

  1. Technical and heat-dissipating housings
  2. Structural components
  3. Wind-energy and generator-related housings or components
  4. Speaker baskets, frames and front plates
  5. Project-specific precision components

ENGINEERING CRITERIA

Assess function and manufacturability together.

  1. Thermal & mechanicalThermal management, strength, wall thickness and environmental loading.
  2. Geometry & tolerancesDimensions, tolerances, surface quality and fit.
  3. Tooling & quantityTooling status, ownership, expected project or annual quantity and schedule.
  4. Finish & evidenceCoating, weather exposure, inspection and documentation scope.
