Sinks are exterior die-casting defects resulting from shrinkage porosity. Surface depression is another common expression for this defect. As the name suggests, this casting oversight ends up causing outside dents, ranging from random to uniform shapes. The development of shrinkage porosity close to the outer surfaces initiates the downward depression. Porosity due to shrinkage develops on […]
Like any manufacturing method, die casting is not free from defects. One of the common types of defect encountered in die casting is the blister defect. It is a formation of bubble-like small cavities or blisters on the surface of a die-cast part. They typically appear as raised, rounded protrusions on the surface of the casting.
Laser technology has many applications in manufacturing. Top laser technologies include cutting, engraving, marking, and etching. These technologies are used in processes that require a high level of accuracy and speed. Laser engraving and laser etching are used to create long-lasting markings on parts for identification and traceability. These two processes involve techniques such as
