Zoltrix's R&D department maintains close technical cooperation with top-tier universities at home and abroad, and continuously tracks cutting-edge advancements in new material applications to enhance our technical capabilities. With independent feedstock development expertise, we have mastered production processes for a diverse range of materials including stainless steel, ceramics, low alloy steel, high strength steel, soft magnetic alloys, titanium alloys and special alloys. Our tailor-made manufacturing solutions deliver exceptional market competitiveness for clients' specific needs.
Mold Design and Manufacturing
Leveraging 20+ years of industry expertise and advanced software/process technologies, Zoltrix Mold Design & Manufacturing Center delivers precision mold design and manufacturing services through meticulous customer requirements analysis. From concept design to production, our engineer team tackles complex mold challenges with proven experience. High-quality mold manufacturing also can be ensured as we are equipped with CNC, EDM and wire-cut machines as well as testing facilities for high-precision machining such as CMMs and blue laser scanners. In addition, innovatively adopting modular standardized designs effectively shortens mold manufacturing cycles and reduces production costs.
Metal Injection Molding
Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is a manufacturing process that combines metal powders with binders for injection molding. Compared to other metal forming technologies, MIM offers unique advantage: ability to form parts with complex geometrical shapes while reducing machining and waste of raw materials. As the near-net-shape molding technology, it is suitable for manufacturing metal products that require intricate structures, high dimensional accuracy, and large production quantities. Currently, Zoltrix has mastered MIM technology for various materials, including stainless steel, tool steel, high strength steel, KOVAR, titanium alloy, copper alloy, and tungsten. The delivered products are widely used in computers, communication equipment, consumer electronics, automotive parts, medical equipment, smart home, precision jewelry and other fields.
Mg/Al Alloy Injection Molding
Zoltrix has achieved full-liquid injection molding in a vacuum environment, significantly enhancing product density compared to semi-solid processes while eliminating surface porosity. So there is no need for putty process, allowing direct post-molding anodizing, electroplating, or vacuum coating treatments.
Metal 3D printing (LPBF & BJP)
Compared to conventional manufacturing methods, metal 3D printing embraces multiple significant advantages including: wider material selection range, easier production of complex geometries, shorter production cycles and parallel production capability. Zoltrix is capable to support Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) and Binder Jet (BJ) metal printing processes using own equipment and provide a variety of surface treatments for customers to choose from.
Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP)
Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) is a technology that utilizes high temperature and high pressure to simultaneously subject metal or ceramic products to equal isotropic pressure, thereby enabling sintering and densification of the workpieces. It boasts stable chemical composition, isotropic mechanical properties, good structural adaptability, and low cost. Zoltrix has mature HIP technology that can meet customer requirements for enhancing the mechanical properties of products made from materials such as steel, aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, and cobalt-chromium alloys.
Hinge Design and Manufacturing
Zoltrix can rapidly optimize hinge performance and strength indicators through FEA and simulation based on end-device motion and reliability requirements, providing excellent hinge structural design solutions. Quick sample validation within short cycles for customers also can be performed thanks to in-house complete manufacturing capabilities including MIM, magnesium alloy injection molding, metal 3D printing, CNC machining, stamping, and post-processing. Our independent materials R&D department who possess proprietary technical know-how is able to support the application verification of new materials for hinges, particularly for lightweight and high-strength requirements. In the MP build, we can provide customized automated manufacturing solutions tailored to customer products to facilitate rapid market launch.
