FAQ
Q1: Die-cast aluminum alloy junction box vs sheet metal / extrusion process difference?
A: Complex structure molding: can integrate heat sink / embedded parts / special-shaped cavity
Low mass production cost: large batches of unit prices compared to CNC processing by 50% +
Excellent surface quality: high density of die-casting surface, strong coating adhesion
High initial investment: need to develop die-casting molds (cost ranging from 10,000 to 280,000)
Design limitations: not suitable for ultra-thin flat parts (risk of deformation)
Q2: How to solve defects such as pores and sand holes in die-casting parts?
A: Five quality control methods are adopted:
1. Vacuum die-casting technology: cavity vacuum degree ≤80mbar, reduce bubbles
2. Mold flow analysis and optimization: MAGMA software simulates the filling process
3. X-ray non-destructive testing: 100% industrial CT scanning of key areas
4. T6 heat treatment: enhance density (hardness up to HB90+)
5. Porosity control: <0.1%
Q3: How long does it take to customize an aluminum alloy shell?
A: The customization cycle depends on the complexity of the design, whether mold opening is required (such as extrusion mold/die-casting mold), production quantity and surface treatment process. Usually:
CNC prototype proofing: 3-7 working days (provide 3D drawings).
Small batch customization (no mold): 7-15 working days (based on sheet metal processing and CNC).
Involving extrusion mold development: mold making time (usually 2-4 weeks) + production time.
Middle and large batch production: high efficiency after the mold/process is finalized. We provide quick response service and can communicate specific urgent needs.
Q4: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for customization?
A: We understand the needs of customers at different stages (R&D, trial production, mass production). For non-standard customization:
CNC processing/sheet metal bending: usually support small batch orders, or even single-piece proofing.
Profile boxes that require extrusion dies: There will be a minimum order quantity requirement for the first production (to share the mold cost), and the specific quantity depends on the complexity and size of the profile section, which can be negotiated. There is no minimum quantity limit for subsequent orders (but the unit price is better for larger quantities).
Q5: What do I need to provide to start customization?
A: The more detailed information you provide, the more accurate and efficient the customization. Ideally, please provide:
3D model files (STEP, IGS, X_T and other formats are best).
Clear 2D engineering drawings (marking key dimensions, tolerances, opening requirements, surface treatment, etc.).
Written technical requirements: including but not limited to material requirements, protection level (IPXX), heat dissipation requirements, EMC requirements, internal installation requirements (guide rail/copper column position), lock/hinge type, surface treatment color and process, certification requirements, etc.
If there is only a concept or sketch, our engineering team can provide design support and jointly optimize the solution.
Q6: Can small batch customization (within 100 pieces) be achieved? How to control costs?
A: Flexible production plan:
Within 50 pieces: CNC machining + sheet metal process (free mold opening fee)
100-500 pieces: combined mold solution (reduce mold cost by 30%)
>500 pieces: extrusion mold/die-casting mold optimizes mass production cost
Reduce customization costs through standardized module libraries (such as sealing structure/mounting hole position)
