Frequently Asked Questions
What alloy is used in the precision die casting of SFP+ structural parts?
CZT typically uses zinc alloy (Zamak) or aluminum alloy depending on the weight, strength, and EMI shielding requirements of the specific SFP+ design. Zinc alloys offer superior dimensional accuracy for fine-feature parts, while aluminum provides a better strength-to-weight ratio for larger housings.
How does precision die casting compare to stamping for SFP+ structural parts?
Die casting enables complex three-dimensional geometries, undercuts, and integrated features that stamping cannot achieve in a single step. For SFP+ housings requiring precise internal cavities, latch features, and EMI fingers, die casting delivers better dimensional consistency and reduces secondary machining operations.
What dimensional tolerances can be held on die-cast SFP+ parts?
CZT's precision die casting process typically holds tolerances of ±0.05mm on critical mating dimensions, ensuring compatibility with SFP+ MSA cage and PCB footprint specifications. Critical features such as latch slots and guide rails are held to tighter tolerances as required by customer drawings.
