DIE - CASTING MOLDS - CNC MACHINING AND MANUFACTURING FOR METAL CASTING
Die-casting molds are mold solutions used to form metal products during the casting process. Mold quality directly affects the shape, dimensions, and consistency of the resulting cast products. Therefore, ing an appropriate mold design and machining method is an important part of die-casting mold manufacturing.
TATSU Trading Manufacture Co., Ltd provides mold manufacturing services, including die-casting molds and metal casting molds, using CNC machining technology during the mold design and manufacturing process.
1. CNC Manufacturing of Die-Casting Molds
According to TATSU, conventional methods of manufacturing metal casting molds may result in various defects in the final cast product - including shape, dimensions, surface condition, and cracking, as well as deviations in chemical composition and mechanical properties.
Applying CNC technology to casting pattern design and manufacturing helps improve the dimensional and geometric accuracy of the mold while supporting greater consistency in the machining of individual components.
CNC machining is one of the methods TATSU uses for metal casting mold manufacturing, replacing certain traditional manual machining processes.

2. Advantages of CNC Machining for Metal Casting Molds
Compared with manual mold-making methods, CNC machining offers several advantages during the manufacturing of casting molds.
✦ Smooth and Bright Mold Surfaces
- Metal casting molds machined using CNC technology can achieve smooth, bright surfaces, supporting the required mold finish during use.
✦ High-Precision Component Machining
- CNC technology supports high-precision machining of mold components, making it suitable for the shape and dimensional requirements specified in the design.
✦ Reduced Deviation from Drawings
- One of the advantages identified by TATSU is the ability to minimize dimensional deviations from the design drawings when machining molds with CNC compared with casting pattern methods such as sand molds or investment casting patterns.
- This is particularly relevant for molds that require accurate shapes and dimensions in accordance with the design.
✦ Faster and More Consistent Mold Manufacturing
- CNC machining supports faster mold manufacturing and greater consistency among components during machining. This is suitable for applications where consistent mold quality needs to be controlled throughout the manufacturing process.
✦ Optimized Machining Costs
- CNC mold manufacturing can have significantly lower costs than conventional methods. Actual costs depend on the design, material, dimensions, and machining requirements of each mold.
3. Metal Casting Molds Built to Specific Technical Requirements
Each casting mold may have different requirements for shape, dimensions, and structure. Therefore, the manufacturing process needs to be based on specific product drawings and technical information.
TATSU focuses on machining and manufacturing molds according to customer requirements. Technical drawings or product information provide the basis for determining an appropriate mold design and machining approach.
For components requiring high dimensional accuracy, CNC machining can provide better control over shape and dimensions during the manufacturing process.
4. CNC Machining for Casting Molds
During die-casting mold manufacturing, CNC machining can be used to form and finish components according to the design. This method is suitable for molds with complex geometries or applications requiring precise dimensional control.
In addition to CNC machining, TATSU provides precision part machining using processes such as turning, milling, EDM, and wire EDM, supporting mold manufacturing and precision components based on customer drawings.
Combining suitable machining methods helps ensure that mold manufacturing is carried out according to the specific technical requirements of each product.
