Die Casting: Starting up a Production Die
Once a die has been sampled, approved, and made several production runs, there can be a tendency to treat future runs casually, or with less care and attention than a new die might receive.

For best results (longest die life, lowest scrap) the following guideline should be observed every time a die is set up to run. Preheat the die from 300 to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Never make a shot on a cold die. Use the app to check items before making the first shot. The Die Casting: Starting up a Production Die mobile app allows you to replace your paper checklist with a handheld mobile device like a smartphone or tablet. The mobile form includes fields to document items such as customer, die number, part number, date and inspected by. Once the mobile app is filled out a secure PDF is generated. The PDF is easy to share, and a copy is stored in your account for your foundry and die casting records. You can also use the App Builder to personalize and customize this mobile form.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
