Detecting Galvanized Metal Parts
Detecting galvanized metal parts involves identifying the presence of a zinc coating applied to steel or iron for corrosion protection. Here are key methods: 1. Visual Inspection Appearance: Hot-dip galvanizing: Look for a characteristic spangled pattern (crystalline sheen) and a bright, silvery-gray finish. Electrogalvanizing: Expect a smoother, uniform gray matte finish. Weathered Surfaces: Older galvanized metal develops a […]
Casting Processes & Alloy Selection
Die casting, sand casting, investment casting, HPDC: Die casting and HPDC are basically fast, high-volume methods. In this process, the molten aluminum is poured into a metal mold under high pressure. They are best suited for thin-walled, complex structures such as electronic enclosures. The alloys used here need to have fast fluidity and the ability […]
