The easiest alloy to cast, it offers high ductility, high impact strength and is easily plated. Zinc is economical for small parts, has a low melting point and promotes long die life. The low meting point of zinc alloys translates in lower energy needs. The melting-remelting cycles do not change their chemical composition (as soon as the temperature of 450°C is not exceeded), their physical or mechanical properties. Hence there is an optimum recycling of zinc alloy parts (feeding systems, sprues, carots, rejected parts). Zinc is natural and does not pollute. Choosing Zinc as material means a sustainable and 100% environmental friendly solution for the user. Due to their small shrinkage properties, part can be casted with close tolerances (up to 1/1000th of the nominal dimension) and small draft angles.
