Applications of Castings

Companies began to implement just-in-time inventory systems, which aligned production schedules with customer demand. Furthermore, the adoption of Six Sigma methodologies helped organizations enhance quality and operational efficiency by systematically eliminating defects and variation in processes.

The draft angle is the taper added to the mold walls of a die cast. It allows for the easy removal of the finished part from the mold without causing damage. When a cast part is produced, it tends to shrink slightly as it cools. If the mold is perfectly vertical with no draft angle, the part may become stuck, leading to potential defects and damage during extraction. The draft angle facilitates smooth ejection, ensuring that the part can slide out without hindrance.
