- Die castings are widely used in the lighting industry.
Die castings are extensively used in the lighting industry due to their ability to produce complex, high-precision components with excellent mechanical properties and cost-effectiveness. Aluminum is the most common material for lighting die castings because of its lightweight nature (one-third the weight of steel), high thermal conductivity for heat dissipation (crucial for LED lighting), corrosion resistance, and suitability for mass production. Key applications include:
LED Lighting Components: Heat sinks, housings, and frames for street lights, floodlights, high bay lights, and downlights, where aluminum’s thermal management ensures longevity and performance.
Decorative and Functional Parts: Lamp covers, brackets, and fittings with intricate designs, leveraging die casting’s ability to create detailed geometries.
Outdoor Lighting: Durable, weather-resistant components with surface treatments like powder coating or anodizing for enhanced aesthetics and protection.
We supports such applications through their die casting and CNC machining capabilities, offering customized aluminum parts with high precision and various surface finishes (e.g., polishing, powder coating).
Die casting’s advantages for lighting include:
High Precision and Consistency: Ideal for complex shapes and tight tolerances.
Cost-Effective for Volume: High-pressure die casting enables rapid production of large quantities.
Material Versatility: Aluminum and zinc provide strength, lightweight properties, and recyclability.
Surface Finishing Options: Enhances aesthetics and durability for indoor and outdoor lighting.
