Soil solarization. Follow these four steps to solarize your soil: cultivate and remove plant matter; level and smooth the soil; irrigate; and lay a clear tarp on the soil surface for 4 to 8 weeks, depending on local conditions.
Die casting is a manufacturing process that can produce geometrically complex metal parts through the use of reusable molds, called dies. The die casting process involves the use of a furnace, metal, die casting machine, and die. The metal, typically a non-ferrous alloy such as aluminum or zinc, is melted in the furnace and then injected into the dies in the die casting machine.
The casting equipment and the metal dies represent large capital costs and this tends to limit the process to high volume production. Manufacture of parts using die casting is relatively simple, involving only four main steps, which keeps the incremental cost per item low.
