die-casting
Injected metal process
Die-casting is a manufacturing process in which molten metal is forced under pressure into a mold cavity, producing precise, uniform parts.
The technique creates everything from engine blocks to door handles to toy cars.
Die-cast parts have smooth surfaces and tight tolerances, making them ideal for mass production.
As a modifier: die-cast aluminum, die-cast toys.
