2. Product Description

Our Full Automatic Metal Die Casting Machine was born from a 2023 collaboration with a Southeast Asian motorcycle wheel rim manufacturer. The factory faced two crippling challenges: their semi-automatic die casting machines required 6 workers per shift (for feeding, part retrieval, and mold cleaning), costing $18,000/month in labor; and inconsistent manual operation led to 8% of rims being rejected (due to uneven injection pressure), wasting 2,000kg of aluminum monthly. Worse, 4 hours of daily downtime for manual mold changes delayed order fulfillment. Our engineering team spent 9 months optimizing automation workflows—integrating 6-axis robots, precision servo injection, and auto-cleaning systems—to create a machine that transforms aluminum casting from labor-reliant to fully autonomous.
Visually, the machine stands as a robust, matte-gray industrial system with clean, modular sections (feeding unit, injection unit, mold clamping unit)—no tangled wires or exposed components, exuding reliability. When you touch the 10-inch HMI control panel, the anti-glare, scratch-resistant glass feels cool and responsive, even after 12 hours of operation, with taps registering instantly (no lag) for parameter adjustments. The machine’s steel frame has smooth, welded joints—no sharp edges that risk worker injury—and the mold clamping area is well-lit with LED strips, making it easy to inspect during maintenance. During operation, it emits a steady, low hum (around 55 decibels)—quieter than a commercial refrigerator—so workers don’t need ear protection, unlike the loud clattering of semi-automatic machines. You’ll notice the 6-axis robot moves with fluid precision, retrieving a freshly cast wheel rim in 3 seconds without scratching the surface; the auto-feeding system dispenses aluminum ingots in exact 2kg portions, ensuring consistent injection. After 8 hours of operation, the mold cleaning arm sprays a gentle, residue-free cleaner—no manual scrubbing needed—preparing the machine for the next shift in 5 minutes. Every detail—from the dust-proof electrical cabinet (preventing aluminum dust damage) to the color-coded emergency stops (easy to locate)—is designed to make aluminum alloy production efficient, safe, and cost-effective for B2B manufacturers.

3. Product Features and Highlights

  • End-to-End Automation Reduces Labor Costs by 60%: Integrates 4 core automated modules—1) Auto-feeding (screw conveyor with level sensors, dispenses 0.5-5kg aluminum ingots precisely); 2) 6-axis robotic part retrieval (±0.02mm positioning accuracy, avoids part damage); 3) Auto-mold cleaning (high-pressure air + biodegradable cleaner, removes residue in 2 minutes); 4) Auto-deburring (rotary brushes for flash removal). A motorcycle rim factory replaced 6 workers with 2 machine operators, cutting monthly labor costs from \(18,000 to \)7,200. The automation also eliminates human error: rejection rates dropped from 8% to 2%, saving 1,600kg of aluminum annually (worth $3,200).

  • Precision Injection Ensures Consistent Part Quality: Uses a servo-driven injection system (5,000N injection force) with PID temperature control (±1℃ stability) for molten aluminum (650-750℃). This delivers ±0.05mm dimensional accuracy—critical for parts like automotive pistons that require tight fits. A Chinese auto parts supplier producing 10,000 pistons/month reported 99.5% of parts met assembly standards (vs. 92% with semi-automatic machines), avoiding $10,000/month in rework. The injection unit also has a pressure feedback loop that adjusts in real time—preventing underfilling (common in thin-walled parts like LED heat sinks) and overfilling (which causes excess flash).

  • Durable Construction for 24/7 Operation: The machine frame is made of Q345B high-strength steel (tensile strength 510MPa) with a powder-coated finish (resists aluminum dust and coolant corrosion). The mold clamping unit uses double-toggle mechanisms (service life 10,000 hours) that maintain clamping force stability (±2% variation) even after 1 million cycles. Our tests show the machine runs continuously for 8,000 hours/year with only 4 hours of monthly maintenance—unlike cheaper machines that require 12+ hours. A Vietnamese industrial pump factory running 3 shifts/day reduced downtime by 75%, increasing annual output by 30%.

  • Energy Efficiency Cuts Utility Bills by 25%: Equips a variable-frequency servo motor (96% energy conversion rate) for the injection and clamping units—reducing power consumption by 25% compared to fixed-speed motors. The machine also has a heat recovery system that redirects excess heat from the injection unit to preheat cold aluminum ingots, shortening melting time by 15% (from 40 minutes to 34 minutes). A Brazilian aluminum parts factory running 2 machines cut monthly electricity bills by $600, achieving full ROI in 14 months.

  • Smart Connectivity for Factory Integration: Supports Industry 4.0 protocols (Modbus-TCP, OPC UA) for remote monitoring via MES systems or mobile apps. Operators can track real-time data (cycle time, rejection rate, energy use) and receive fault alerts (e.g., low aluminum level, mold overheating) via SMS/email. A German factory managing 5 machines from a central office reduced on-site supervision by 50% and resolved 80% of minor issues remotely, avoiding 6 hours of annual downtime.

8. Usage & Maintenance Guide

Proper operation and maintenance maximize uptime and lifespan—tailored for B2B factory teams:
  • Pre-Operation Checks (5 Minutes/Day):

    1. Inspect auto-feeder level: Ensure aluminum ingots are filled to 50% capacity (avoid overfilling, which causes jamming).

    1. Check cooling water flow: Verify 150L/h flow rate (low flow causes overheating—clean filters if needed).

    1. Test emergency stops: Press all 3 color-coded stops (red, located on HMI, mold area, and feeder) to confirm machine shuts down within 0.5 seconds.

    1. Calibrate temperature sensor: Use a portable thermocouple to verify molten aluminum temperature (±1℃ deviation allowed).

  • Weekly Maintenance (1 Hour):

    1. Clean the robot grippers: Wipe rubber pads with isopropyl alcohol to remove aluminum residue (prevents slipping).

    1. Lubricate mold clamping toggles: Apply high-temperature grease (provided) to 4 toggle joints—prevents wear and ensures smooth movement.

    1. Inspect electrical cabinet: Use compressed air to blow away dust (accumulation causes overheating of PLC components).

  • Monthly Maintenance (2 Hours):

    1. Calibrate injection pressure: Use a pressure transducer to adjust servo motor output—ensure 5,000N force (±2% variation).

    1. Replace auto-cleaner lubricant filter: Clogged filters reduce spray pressure—use genuine replacement filters (part #DAC-001) for optimal performance.

  • Annual Professional Inspection:
