Custom-made foundry parts with CNC machining auto dashboard bracket

Magnesium alloys are well-known for being the lightest structural alloys [1].

They are made of magnesium, the lightest structural metal, mixed with other metal elements to improve the physical properties. These elements include manganese, aluminium, zinc, silicon, copper, zirconium, and rare-earth metals [2].

Some of magnesium’s favourable properties include low specific gravity and a high strength-to-weight ratio. As a result, the material lends itself to a range of automotive, aerospace, industrial, electronic, biomedical, and commercial applications

Properties and advantages advantages   Applications

Magnesium alloys cover a wide array of applications, from automotive and aerospace applications to electronic and biomedical uses.

Structural applications Automotive, aerospace, industrial, and commercial applications are examples of structural applications. The advantage of magnesium alloys to be used in such applications is their light weight, high strength-to-weight ratio, high stiffness-to-weight ratio, castability, machinability, and great damping [4].

Automotive: support brackets for brakes and clutch, housing for transmission

Aerospace: landing wheels, helicopter rotor fittings, gearbox housings

Industrial: high-speed operating machinery, such as textile machines

Commercial: luggage, hand tools, computer housings, ladders

Electronic applications Electronic applications include electronic packaging, hard drive arms, cell phone and portable media device housings. Magnesium alloys are being used instead of plastics due to their light weight, strength and durability. They also are relatively better for heat dissipation and protection against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference [5].

Medical applications Portable medical equipment and wheelchairs that require light material make good use of magnesium alloys. Also, cardiovascular stents and orthopaedic devices are potential applications of some magnesium alloys due to magnesium’s biocompatibility and bioabsorbability [4].

Die casting is a metal casting process that involves feeding molten non-ferrous alloys into a mold at high pressure and high speed to rapidly manufacture shaped products. The main materials used in die casting are alloys of aluminum, magnesium and zinc.

Zinc die casting for the automotive industry involves a process called hot chamber die casting. The zinc is heated until it reaches a molten state, and then pressure forces it into a mold in the shape of the desired auto part. After the metal has cooled and hardened, it is removed from the mold.

    Converting Aluminum with Conversion Coating

    Aluminum is a versatile material that is widely used in various industries including aerospace, automotive, construction, and packaging. However, untreated aluminum can corrode and deteriorate over time, especially in harsh environments. To protect aluminum from corrosion and improve its surface properties, conversion coating is often applied.   Conversion coating is a chemical process that converts the surface of aluminum into a thin layer of oxide or phosphate coating. This layer acts as a protective barrier against corrosion, enhances adhesion of subsequent coatings or adhesives, and improves the appearance of the surface. There are several types of conversion coatings for aluminum,...
