3 Advantages of Using Aluminium Bronze Castings

If you need to add die casting to parts or products, then you have to decide which casting material to use. While each material has its benefits, many applications work well with aluminium bronze casting. What are its benefits? 1. Better Longevity When you add casting to something, you typically need the casting to last for as long as possible. Depending on the part or product and its purpose, you might need the casting to add a layer of strength and to stand up to specific environmental conditions. Read More 

Stainless steel fabrication processes

Due to its versatility, stainless steel has become very popular in the fabrication industry. The fabrication of stainless steel produces a wide range of components with different applications. For this reason, steel fabrication uses the following efficient techniques: Work hardening Work hardening involves strengthening stainless steel through deformation. In comparison to other types of steel, stainless steel hardens faster depending on the type of alloy it contains. Before the hardening process, it is essential to determine the type of steel grade to match it with the right hardening treatment. Read More 

3 Types of Pressures in the Injection Molding Process that Start-Up Plastic Manufacturing Firms Commonly Ignore

In the manufacturing of plastic parts using injection moulding process, a myriad of parameters must be established and controlled. The parameters include temperature, time and pressure. While all the parameters are vital to the production of high-quality plastic moulded parts, the pressure is the most different attribute during the injection moulding process. Therefore, it is necessary to understand everything to do with injection moulding pressure. Unfortunately, most small-scale plastic products manufacturers get into the industry knowing only one type of pressure, that is, injection pressure. Read More
