Die casting is a metal casting process that is characterized by forcing molten metal under high pressure into a mould cavity. The mould cavity is created using two hardened tool steel dies which have been machined into shape and work similarly to an injection mould during the process.
The type of metal chosen to fabricate the part determines whether the manufacturers will use the hot chamber or cold chamber method.
