Recently, the METAL THAILAND 2024 exhibition, jointly organized by the China Foundry Association and industry associations in forging, heat treatment, welding, and related fields, was held at the Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Center in Thailand. LK Group, alongside its subsidiaries in Thailand, Malaysia, and Japan, jointly participated in this prestigious annual event.
Centered on the core concept of "Green, Intelligent, Sustainable," the METAL THAILAND 2024 exhibition has gathered over 200 top enterprises from around the world, covering key areas such as casting, forging, heat treatment, and welding. This exhibition is not merely a platform showcasing the latest technologies and products, but also a grand gathering of minds, where fundamental machinery manufacturing processes, advanced materials, and intelligent equipment intersect in a symphony of innovative thinking, aiming to propel the green and intelligent transformation of the manufacturing industry in Southeast Asia and even globally.
Leveraging this international platform, LK Group showcased its latest advancements in die casting technology. Through the joint exhibition of its subsidiaries spanning multiple countries, LK Group demonstrated its regional synergy within a global perspective, as well as its deep cultivation and strategic layout in the Southeast Asian market. This highlights the Group's keen insight into local market dynamics, its swift response mechanism, and its capability to provide customized solutions tailored to clients' needs.
At this exhibition, LK Group highlighted its capabilities in die casting technology for electric vehicles, showcasing the technical advantages of die casting in the production of complex structural components through exhibits such as transmission housings, engine oil pans, front covers, and automotive air-conditioning compressor cylinders. As a pioneer in the giga integrated die casting technology, LK Group's 6000T-16000T giga die casting cells enable the manufacturing of key components such as rear floor panels, battery packs, and motor housings for EVs, providing a more reliable production process for automotive lightweighting and driving the high-quality development of the new energy industry.
LK Group's high-performance IMPRESS-III series cold chamber die casting machines have found extensive applications in the automotive (including EVs), 5G communication, and motorcycle manufacturing industries. Incorporating a wealth of design experience, profound manufacturing expertise, and widely validated application technologies, these machines are characterized by efficient die opening and closing, stable operation, and environmentally friendly production. They serve as the ideal choice to support die casting production cells that can be freely combined in a modular fashion with peripherals. Their outstanding stability and reliable performance have earned widespread acclaim and long-term trust from numerous global partners.
Overview of Key Features of IMPRESS-III Series
1.Stable intensification response: The adoption of direct intensification structure without internal check valve enables rapid intensification response. The max. dry shot speed ≥8m/s, which fulfills the production demands of high-precision die casting products.
2.Rapid control system integration: The brand-new control system seamlessly integrates with peripherals, boasting millisecond-level interrupt processing speeds.
3.High repetition accuracy: The die opening stroke is controlled by a position transducer, ensuring precise position control and high repetition accuracy.
4.Dual proportional control: The system offers dual proportional control of both system pressure and flow rate, both of which can be set and adjusted on the touchscreen panel. The unique fast die closing control shortens the cycle time and improves overall efficiency.
5.CAE-optimized design: The platens adopts a CAE-optimized structural design, ensuring rational stress distribution, high hardness, and minimal deformation, thereby meeting the requirements of precision die casting.
6.Cloud die casting solution based on industry 4.0 architecture: LK interconnects die casting machines, peripherals, and the industrial internet through LK-NET distributed and remote monitoring management system. This solution helps customers build future smart factories, enhances their digital production and management capabilities, and realizes full-process optimization, cost reduction, and efficiency enhancement in production.
LK Group sincerely invites industry peers and partners to jointly plan for the future development of die casting technology, explore new opportunities for cooperation, and work together to achieve a more environmentally friendly, efficient, and intelligent manufacturing environment.
