Different usage locations can significantly affect the design and performance requirements of die-casting lighting parts. The specific differences are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
1. Industrial environment (such as foundry workshops, factory buildings)
High weather resistance requirements: It needs to withstand harsh conditions such as high temperature, high humidity, dust or chemical corrosion, and parts need to have stronger corrosion resistance and sealing performance (such as high protection level IP certification).
High structural strength requirements: may face mechanical impact or vibration, and die-casting parts need to increase thickness or strengthen supporting structures to prevent deformation or fracture.
Key to heat dissipation performance: In high-temperature environments (such as near furnaces), it is required that the die-casting material has excellent thermal conductivity and is designed with efficient heat dissipation (such as fin structures).
2. Commercial and home spaces (such as shopping malls, residences)
Appearance refinement priority: The surface should be smooth and flawless, and support decorative processes such as electroplating and spraying to meet aesthetic needs.
Lightweight design: reduces the load on the installation structure while maintaining structural stability (such as thin-walled die-casting technology).
Optical performance optimization: requires precise control of the light distribution angle, reduction of glare, and compatibility with intelligent dimming systems.
3. Outdoor and public facilities (such as road lighting, public parking lots)
Extreme environmental adaptability: It is required to withstand temperature difference, ultraviolet radiation and rain erosion. Anti aging aluminum alloy is often selected as the material, and the sealing and seepage prevention design is strengthened.
Impact resistance and damage resistance: Public area parts need to increase structural strength (such as thickening the shell) to resist external impact or vandalism.
Maintenance convenience: Modular design facilitates quick replacement of parts and reduces maintenance costs.
4. Special scenarios (such as explosion-proof places, cold storage)
Safety certification: Flammable and explosive environments (such as paint workshops) must comply with explosion-proof standards (such as explosion-proof shell design).
Low temperature adaptability: Cold storage and other low-temperature environments require materials to maintain toughness at low temperatures, avoid brittle cracking, and solve the problem of starting voltage (such as preheating design).
