High Precision Zinc Die Casting Services
DeCardy Diecasting offers high precision zinc die casting services with the ability to produce difficult and complex miniature or small functional parts. Our wide selection of advanced machinery is capable of (see machine specifications below) 250 to 700 shots per hour, exerts 7 to 50 metric tons of clamping pressure, and produces shot weights of up to 2 lbs.
Parts are available in sizes up to 24" in length and 24" in width. Manufacturing utilizes a versatile, efficient high pressure die casting process producing and maintaining tolerances of ± 0.0005" throughout. Typical lead times are 4 to 6 weeks, handling small to large production volume. DeCardy’s developed concurrent engineering process optimizes quality and productivity, resulting in a highly cost effective and reassuringly consistent production experience.
Post-casting processes include machining, tapping, grinding, and Vibramilling. Surface finishing options include buffing, painting, e-coating, and electroplating. All production takes place on-site at our ISO 9001:2008 certified facility and every part is subjected to a full regimen of quality assurance protocols and thorough testing and inspections including optical comparator testing.
