Important Design Considerations for Die Cast Mold to avoid defects

Some guidelines should be followed when manufacturing a die-casting mold. It can significantly reduce the time and difficulty of die construction. Here are some important tips for mold making.

• Replace the sharp edges with fillets
• The mold must have enough draft to enable easier casting ejection
• Avoid deep pockets and thin walls
• Minimize the number of undercuts and keep them aligned with the parting line
• Ensure enough runners, overflows, and vents for improving casting quality
• Pay close attention to the orientation of the parts during mold design
