WHY IN-HOUSE TOOLING MATTERS
The die is the heart of every die casting project. Its design and quality directly impact part accuracy, surface finish, and production efficiency. By keeping tooling in-house, we control every aspect of die development.
Our tool room is equipped with EDM machines and conventional lathes to manufacture new dies, perform maintenance, and make modifications — all without depending on external vendors. This means faster turnaround, better quality control, and lower costs for your projects.
Faster Lead Times
No waiting for external toolmakers
Cost Control
Direct control over tooling costs
Quick Modifications
Rapid design changes when needed
Quality Assurance
Full control over die quality
OUR EQUIPMENT
Specialized machines for die manufacturing and maintenance
WIRE EDM
Precision wire-cut EDM for complex cavity profiles, intricate shapes, and tight tolerance features in hardened die steel.
SINK EDM
Die-sinking EDM for creating complex 3D cavities, textured surfaces, and features that cannot be machined conventionally.
CONVENTIONAL LATHE
Heavy-duty lathe for turning die components, sprue bushes, ejector pins, and other cylindrical tooling elements.
DIE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
From concept to production-ready die
REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS
We review your part drawings, specifications, and production requirements to understand the project scope.
- Part drawing review
- Material and finish requirements
- Volume and cycle time targets
DIE DESIGN
Our team designs the die with optimal gating, cooling, and ejection systems using CAD software.
- Parting line determination
- Runner and gate design
- Cooling channel layout
DIE MANUFACTURING
The die is manufactured using our in-house EDM and conventional machining capabilities.
- Die block preparation
- EDM cavity machining
- Component fitting and assembly
HEAT TREATMENT
Die components undergo heat treatment for optimal hardness and wear resistance.
- Hardening and tempering
- Surface treatment if needed
- Hardness verification
TRIAL & APPROVAL
Die is trialed on our PDC machines. Sample parts are produced and inspected for approval.
- First-off trial run
- Dimensional inspection
- Sample approval
TYPES OF DIES WE MAKE
Different die configurations for various part requirements
SINGLE CAVITY
One part per shot — ideal for larger components or initial production runs.
MULTI CAVITY
Multiple identical parts per shot — for high-volume production efficiency.
SLIDE CORE DIES
Dies with moving cores for parts with undercuts, side holes, or complex geometry.
TOOL STEEL GRADES
Quality die steels for durability and performance
H13
Premium hot work tool steel with excellent heat resistance and toughness. Standard for die casting dies.
H11
Good combination of toughness and wear resistance. Used for dies requiring high impact strength.
P20
Pre-hardened steel for die bases and lower-stress components. Cost-effective option.
SKD61
Japanese equivalent of H13 with excellent thermal fatigue resistance for high-volume production.
