Metal, plastic, rubber fabrication service | Taiwan Kodai

We offer various metal fabrication processes including casting, forging, stamping, machining, metal injection molding, and etc. Metal parts are widely used in many industries such as electronic, computer, automotive, aerospace, medical, and etc.

Casting is most often used for making complex shapes that would be otherwise difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods. The process is to pour molten metal into a mold, which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then allowed to solidify. The solidified part is also known as a casting, which is ejected or broken out of the mold to complete the process.

The casting process is divided into two main categories: expendable and non-expendable casting. In expendable casting, a mold is temporary and non-reusable, and is needed to be reformed in each production cycle, while in non-expendable casting, a mold can be reused in all production cycle.

Here are some common casting processes we are capable of providing to you:

* Expendable mold casting

  * Sand casting
  * Investment casting
* Non-expendable mold casting

  * Die casting
  * Permanent mold casting

## Sand casting

Sand casting is the most used casting process of all metal castings. This process places a replica of the final workpiece in sand to create a mold. The advantage of sand casting is that molds made of sand are relatively cheap and sufficiently refractory. Also, sand casting allows for smaller batches at a reasonable cost. Sand casting allows most metals to be cast.

## [](/products/?processingMethod=casting)Investment casting

Investment casting is also known as "lost-wax casting". This process invests the pattern (a replica of the final workpiece made in waxes) with refractory material (e.g. ceramic) to create a mold. Often, several molds are assembled into a tree to allow casting several pieces simultaneously. The advantage of investment casting is that products come with great surface qualities, which can reduce the need for secondary processes. The disadvantage is the relatively high cost for short-run productions. Investment casting allows most metals to be cast.

## [](/products/?processingMethods=investment-casting)Die casting

Die casting forces molten metal under high preesure into a mold cavity. Die casting has large capital costs, but it is suited for small to medium size castings that require good surface finish and dimensional consistency.

The typical materials used in die casting are non-ferrous metals, such as:

* Zinc (Zn)
* Copper (Cu)
* Aluminium (Al)
* Magnesium (Mg)
* Lead (Pb)
* Tin-based alloys (Sn)

## [](/products/?processingMethods=die-casting)Permanent mold casting

Permanent mold casting, sometimes referred to as gravity casting, uses gravity to fill reusable molds. The advantage of permanent mold casting is the reusable mold. Permanent mold casting is used to manufacture gears, splines, wheels, gear housings, pipe fitting, fuel injection housings, and automotive engine pistons. The typical materials used in permanent mold casting are:

* Aluminum (Al)
* Magnesium (Mg)
* Copper (Cu)
* Tin (Sn)
* Zinc (Zn)
* Lead (Pb)
* Iron (Fe)
* Steel

Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metal using localized compressive forces. Forging can produce a piece that is stronger than an equivalent cast or machined part. Common forged products are gears, shafts, turbines, automobile parts, railroads, hand tools, kitchenware, jewellery, and etc. Forging is often classified according to the temperature at which it is performed:

## Hot forging

Hot forging operates above a metal's recrystallization temperature throughout the whole process. Iron and steel alloys are primarily forged in hot condition.

## Cold forging

Cold forging is usually done at room temperature. Brass, bronze, copper, precious metals are manufactured by cold forging processes.

## Warm forging

Warm forging occurs between room temperature and a metal's recrystallization temperature. The most common metals that are used in warm forging are steel alloys.

Stamping is the process of converting flat metal sheets into specific shapes. Stamping includes a variety of sheet-metal forming processes, such as punching, blanking, embossing, bending, flanging, and coining. Although stamped parts are not as strong as forged parts, they are good enough and cost effective for certain use cases.

Stamping

Machining is a process in which a metal is cut to a desired final shape, often by computer numerical control (CNC). The three principal machining processes are classified as turning, milling, and drilling.

## Turning

Turning operations are operations that rotate the workpiece as the primary method of moving metal against the cutting tool. Lathes are the principal machine tool used in turning.

## Milling

Milling operations are operations in which the cutting tool rotates to bring cutting edges to bear against the workpiece in contrast to turning operations.

## Drilling

Drilling operations are operations in which holes are produced or refined by bringing a rotating cutter with cutting edges into contact with the workpiece. Drilling operations are done primarily in drill presses.

Metal injection molding (MIM) is a process in which finely-powdered metal is mixed with binder material and then shaped and solidified using injection molding. Metal injection molding is used to create small, intricate, high-volume products.

MIM can produce parts where it is difficult, or even impossible, to efficiently manufacture an item through other methods. The molding process allows high volume, complex parts to be shaped in a single step.

The most common metals used in MIM are stainless steels. The typical products are used in industrial, commercial, medical, dental, firearms, aerospace, and automotive applications.

Wire forming is a process in which metal wire is angled, coiled, bent, or cut into a specific form. Common products produced by wire forming are springs, hooks, wire baskets, wire guards, clips, and etc.

The typical materials used in wire forming processes are aluminum, copper, steel, brass, stainless steel.
