Frequently asked questions about machines
How many machines does Micrometal have?
Micrometal operates 11 machines in total: 7 standalone presses (1 Agrati 20t + 4 Agrati 30t + 1 Italpresse IPZ90 90t + 1 Frech DAW 80) and 4 Frech DAW 80 robotic cells (1 with Kawasaki robot + 3 with ABB robots). Operating tonnage range from 20 to 90 tonnes.
How much does Micrometal produce per month?
Our production capacity is 75,000 kg/month of zamak die-cast components, distributed across 11 machines. Effective volume modulates based on geometric complexity, part weight (5g-700g) and alloy mix.
Which zinc alloys do you process?
We work the 4 main alloys per EN 12844 standard: ZP3 (zamak 3), ZP5 (zamak 5), ZP2 (zamak 2), ZP8 (zamak 8). Selection depends on application (mechanical strength, hardness, aesthetic finish, creep behavior).
Which tonnage for which part?
Tonnage is selected based on part weight and projected area: 20-30t for micro-components 5-50g (fashion, electronics), 30-50t for medium parts 50-200g (locks, valves), 50-90t for large parts 200-700g (automotive, structural). Dimensional details validated with our DFM team.
