How to choose the right used die casting machine?

Purchasing a used die casting machine is an important investment. Choosing the right equipment can not only improve production efficiency but also reduce costs. To help you make an informed decision, we have prepared this purchasing guide for you, covering all aspects from demand analysis to equipment acceptance.

 

1. Clarify your needs and target your needs

 

Before you start purchasing, you need to clarify your own production needs, which will help you narrow down your choices and find the most suitable equipment.

① Product type and size: What type of products do you plan to produce? What are the size and weight of the product? This will determine the tonnage of the die-casting machine and the size of the mold you need.

② Production volume: What is your expected monthly or annual output? This will affect your requirements for equipment production efficiency and stability.

③ Budget: What is your budget for buying a second-hand die-casting machine? Clarifying the budget can help you screen out equipment that fits your price range.

④ Other needs: Do you have any special requirements for the degree of automation, energy consumption, environmental protection, etc. of the equipment?

 

2. Focus on inspection to ensure quality

 

After confirming your purchase intention, you need to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the equipment to ensure the quality of the equipment.

① Appearance inspection: Check whether the appearance of the equipment is obviously damaged, rusted, deformed, etc.

② Operation inspection: Start the equipment and check whether each component is operating normally, whether there is abnormal noise, vibration, etc.

③ Hydraulic system inspection: Check whether the hydraulic system has oil leakage and whether the pressure is normal.

④ Electrical system inspection: Check whether the electrical system is safe and reliable and whether the circuit is aging.

⑤ Mold inspection: Check whether the mold is intact and whether the size meets the requirements.

 

3. Sign a contract to protect your rights and interests

 

After confirming that there is no problem with the equipment, you need to sign a formal sales contract with the supplier to protect your legal rights and interests.

① Clarify equipment information: The contract should specify the brand, model, specifications, quantity, price and other information of the equipment.

② Agree on payment method: The contract should specify the payment method, payment time, etc.

③ Clarify delivery time and method: The contract should specify the delivery time, location, transportation method, etc.

④ Agree on after-sales service: The contract should specify the after-sales service content and period provided by the supplier.
