Because the magnesium material is injected as a slurry [rather than from a liquid], Thixomolding® provides better mechanical properties, lower porosity, better surface quality and tighter tolerances. Additionally, thinner sections (down to 0.50 mm [0.020 in]) and more complex geometries (longer rib/wall ratios, longer flow lengths) can be made. Contact Parkway Products for more details on the enhanced design possibilities of magnesium.
