ADVANTAGES OF MAGNESIUM DIE CASTING

Magnesium is the lightest of all structural metals and is used extensively in applications demanding high performance characteristics.

null

Lightweight

Lightest of all structural metals 75% lighter than steel and 33% lighter than aluminum.

null

Highest Strength-to-Weight Ratio

Magnesium parts can be cast to net shape can also be used in high temperature applications.
null

Abundant Material Supply

Magnesium is produced from sea water, brines and magnesium-bearing minerals.
null

100% Recyclable

Once a magnesium die cast tool or part reaches the end of its life, it can easily be recycled to serve another purpose, saving on costs and environmental impact.
null

Very Good Stiffness-to-Weight Ratio

The weight of magnesium is nearly equal to many plastics and offers several distinct advantages over plastic, including superior stiffness and wear resistance.

MAGNESIUM ALLOYS

OFFERINGS

Magnesium alloys are noted for low weight, high strength to weight ratio, exceptional damping capacity and ease of machining. Magnesium die casting temperatures are about the same as aluminum and both hot chamber and cold chamber die casting machines are used to produce castings.

VIEW MAGNESIUM ALLOY PROPERTIES

AZ91D

AZ91D is the most commonly used magnesium die cast alloy that has an outstanding combination of mechanical properties, castability, and corrosion resistance.

AZ91HP

This alloy has been specifically developed for corrosive environments, and has lower levels of nickel, iron, copper and silicon than AZ91D.

AM60B

This magnesium alloy has excellent energy absorption characteristics along with excellent ductility. AM50B also has slightly higher strength that AM50A, but with otherwise similar properties
