Explore Our Die Casting Capabilities
Formioo offers comprehensive die casting capabilities, including High-Pressure Die Casting (HPDC), Low-Pressure Die Casting (LPDC), Gravity Die Casting, and Vacuum Die Casting. These processes enable us to produce high-precision, complex metal parts with excellent strength, dimensional stability, and repeatability. We work with a wide range of non-ferrous metals, primarily aluminum alloys (e.g. A380, ADC12, AlSi10Mg), zinc alloys (e.g. Zamak 3, Zamak 5), and magnesium alloys, to meet specific performance and weight requirements across industries.
To enhance both appearance and functionality, we provide multiple surface finishing options such as shot blasting, powder coating, anodizing, e-coating, chromate conversion, and CNC post-machining. Depending on the casting process and material, we achieve tolerances as tight as ±0.01 mm for critical features. All parts undergo dimensional inspections using tools like CMMs and X-ray testing to ensure internal and external quality compliance for end-use applications.

Die Casting Materials
Aluminum alloys
Aluminum alloys are particularly well-adapted for Die Casting due to their great strength, low weight, and better corrosion resistance. They are extensively utilized in the auto, aerospace, and electronics markets. Aluminum die-cast items like engine blocks, transmission cases, and automobile wheels, for example, utilize their light weight and strength, reducing vehicle weight and providing strength. Aluminum alloys are utilized in heat sinks and electrical enclosures where high thermal conductivity is required. Their high performance and versatility are reasons they are among the top demanded Die Casting materials.
- Mill Lead Time: As fast as 7-10 days
- Finishes: Raw, anodized, powder coated, bead blasted, polished
Zinc alloys
Zinc alloys have very wide usage in Die Casting due to their superior castability, good strength, and dimensional stability. These alloys are suitably applied in producing small-sized components with finer details. Zinc die-casting items have extensive application in the electronic sector, automobile components, and household consumer appliances such as connectors, switches, and enclosures. Zinc alloys are typically characterized by the method of creating smooth surface areas and excellent wear resistance, coupled with corrosion resistance. They are most commonly used where tight tolerances and high precision finishes are required, and are thus essential in items such as gears, locks, and handles.
- Mill Lead Time: As fast as 5-7 days
- Finishes: Raw, electroplated, powder coated, polished
Magnesium Alloys
Magnesium alloys are normally used on Die Casting on the basis of strength-to-weight ratio. Magnesium alloys are utilized in those applications where saving weight is highest, i.e., automobile and aerospace. Trim interior of motor engine blocks and lightness are possible due to magnesium die-casting parts because they weigh less but are strong. Magnesium alloys find their usage in power tools, sport equipment, and electronics where there is a need for lightness as well as strength. While magnesium alloys are highly resistant to corrosion, caution should be exercised while handling them while casting to avoid oxidation and for quality output.
- Mill Lead Time: As fast as 10-12 days
- Finishes: Raw, anodized, shot blasted, polished
Copper Alloys
Copper alloys, having high electrical and thermal conductivity, are best utilized in Die Casting where high heat dissipation and electrical conductance are needed. Copper alloys have large-scale applications in electronics, power transmission, and vehicle use. For example, copper die-casting components are utilized in connectors, electric terminals, and heat exchangers. Copper alloys also have high wear resistance, appropriate for high-stress components like gears and bearings. They are beneficial where thermal management comes into play due to their strength at high temperatures.
- Mill Lead Time: As fast as 7-10 days
- Finishes: Raw, electroplated, polished, brushed
Lead alloys
Lead alloys are used most frequently in Die Casting due to their high density and castability. Although use of lead has fallen owing to environmental issues, it is still required in some special purposes like shielding against radiation and batteries. Lead die-cast parts, for example, are still used in lead-acid automobile batteries as well as in medical imaging shielding. Lead alloys have high castability and are highly corrosion-resistant under specific conditions, but otherwise are used only for specialist applications where their particular properties are necessary.
- Mill Lead Time: As fast as 7-10 days
- Finishes: Raw, electroplated, polished
