Do You Offer Engineering Consultation for DFM and Material Selection?

Yes — Full Engineering Support at Every Stage

Neway offers comprehensive engineering consultation services focused on Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and material selection, helping customers optimize parts for performance, cost, and efficient production. Our die casting engineering team evaluates your part geometry, wall thickness, draft angles, and mold flow feasibility to minimize defects and tooling complexity.

DFM Consultation Services

Our DFM support includes:

• Parting Line and Ejection Optimization: Ensuring consistent ejection and clean separations in parts such as A380 aluminum or Zamak 5 zinc components.

• Wall Thickness Analysis: Recommending uniform wall structures (typically 1.5–3.5 mm) to reduce warpage, porosity, and cycle time.

• Draft Angle Recommendations: Optimizing draft angles (commonly 0.5° to 2°) for easy demolding without surface defects.

These improvements directly reduce tooling wear, cycle times, and part rejection rates.

Material Selection Support

We help customers choose from a wide range of die casting alloys, including:

• Aluminum Alloys: Such as ADC12 for lightweight, corrosion-resistant parts or EN AC-43500 (AlSi10Mg) for high strength and thermal resistance.

• Zinc Alloys: Including Zamak 3 and ZA-8 for dimensional stability and excellent surface finishes.

• Copper Alloys: Such as Brass 360 or Silicon Bronze C65500 when high thermal/electrical conductivity or wear resistance is required.

Value to Customers

Through early-stage engineering input, customers benefit from:

• Reduced time to production

• Fewer design iterations

• Optimized tooling lifespan

• Enhanced mechanical performance and surface finish compatibility
