Custom Zinc Parts in CNC Machining
Zinc is the world's fourth most consumed metal after iron, aluminum and copper. Zinc has a bluish-white surface, good ductility, low hardness and strong plasticity.
At DEK, we possess advanced equipment such as CNC milling machines, CNC lathes, laser cutting machines, and EDM machines, along with skilled machining techniques. We specialize in the precision machining of zinc parts. The high strength and hardness of zinc alloys make them ideal for machining, pressing, stamping, and assembling parts. Whether it's for prototype design or mass production, DEK always meets your diverse needs.
Additionally, at DEK, you can obtain high-quality surface treatments including electroplating, polishing, painting, and powder coating. With a tight tolerance of up to +/-0.005mm, our precision services ensure the provision of high-quality parts for industries such as machinery manufacturing, electronics, and household appliances. We are the ideal choice for connectors, fittings, valves, mechanical housings, and brackets. If you are looking for one-stop custom zinc parts services, contact us immediately!

Zamak 3 (Zinc)
The most common alloy in the Zamak family is Zamak 3, which primarily consists of zinc with small amounts of aluminum, magnesium, and copper.
Basic Knowledge of Zinc
What is Zinc?
Zinc is a metal in Group 12 of the periodic table, which is widely used commercially. In the Earth's crust, it's a bit more abundant than copper and occurs mainly as the mineral sphalerite. China, Australia, and Peru are the leading producers. Zinc's major uses include preventing corrosion by coating iron and steel (galvanizing) and making alloys like brass. Galvanizing can be done through hot dip or electrogalvanizing. The former involves dipping steel into molten zinc, while the latter uses electrolysis to deposit zinc on steel strips.
In the human body, zinc is essential, concentrated in red blood cells, playing a role in enzyme carbonic anhydrase and insulin storage. Zinc is also important in plant health. The metal is obtained by roasting zinc sulfide ores and then either leaching or smelting. Zinc is also a component in electric dry cell batteries, and alloys with aluminum have lower melting points and good mechanical properties. Zinc's appearance changes over time due to oxidation. It has different isotopes, with 64Zn being the most common.
