Die-casting: The die-casting process and its application in modern manufacture, die-casting machines, design of different types of dies, composition ... other non-ferrous alloys, and cast iron

"The production of castings by applying pressure to force molten metal into steel dies or molds is one of the notable developments in modern manufacturing practice. Die-casting, as this process is termed, provides a means of producing unlimited quantities of castings of such uniformity and accuracy that machining costs are either reduced greatly or eliminated entirely."
