Die casting is an efficient method of forming metal parts in dies, also called tools, which consists of two halves where molten steel or a type of metal is inserted into the cavities to mold metal parts. Die casting is used to produce parts for many industries, with an efficient method of changing dies required for all applications, particularly in automotive manufacturing where continual improvement in product quality and process efficiency is demanded.
Stucchi offers hydraulic solutions which help die casting processes significantly reduce time required for tool changeovers, also called exchange of dies, with leak-free quick couplers and multi-coupling plates. Our die casting hydraulic solutions increase equipment uptime and improve process efficiencies. Watch this video to see how Stucchi’s quick-release couplings and multi-coupling plates support SMED and continual improvement initiatives with quick mold change solutions.
