Introducing the cycle time reduction methods that have somehow remained traditional in Japan!
Aluminum die casting is a manufacturing method that produces parts by melting aluminum at high temperatures, injecting it into a mold (shot), and cooling it. It excels in precision, appearance, and productivity, and is widely used in various applications, from mobile phone casings to automotive parts. The time taken for a single shot (referred to as cycle time) generally ranges from about 30 to 60 seconds. Reducing the cycle time by one second directly translates to increased productivity, saving dozens of hours annually. This not only reduces the cost per shot but also decreases overtime, improves labor shortages, mitigates greenhouse gas emissions, and allows for time to be allocated for on-site improvements and quality control activities, leading to further enhancements in productivity and quality. Therefore, companies are working on shortening cycle times, typically by innovating cooling methods for molds and speeding up various operations. *For detailed content of the column, please refer to the related links.
