aluminum silicon alloy auto parts

Aluminum silicon alloy auto parts At present, the United States, Japan, and Germany are the countries that use the most aluminum alloys in automobiles, such as Germany's Volkswagen AudiA8, A2, Japan's NXS and other body-use aluminum alloys amounting to 80%. In addition to aluminum alloys used in Shanghai Santana, FAW Audi and Jetta (all imported production lines), there are many domestically produced red flags, about 80-100kg. Some data show that replacing the traditional steel structure with an aluminum alloy structure can reduce the mass of the car by 30% to 40%, the production of the engine can be reduced by 30%, and the production of the wheel can be reduced by 50%. The use of aluminum alloys is one of the important ways to reduce the weight of automobiles, protect the environment, save energy, increase speed and transport efficiency. Therefore, it is very necessary to research and develop aluminum alloy automobiles. The main advantages of aluminum alloys are light weight and good heat dissipation. With the development of engine technology, the valve structure has become the mainstream design trend of the engine.

Aluminum alloy for wheel hub

Aluminum wheels have gradually replaced steel wheels because of their light weight, good heat dissipation and good appearance. In the past 10 years, the global aluminum alloy automobile wheels have grown at an annual growth rate of 7.6%, and the aluminization rate of automobile wheels can reach 72% to 78%. Silicon-aluminum alloy, which has good casting properties and high comprehensive mechanical properties, is an example of the application of aluminum alloys in automobiles, and almost all new models use aluminum alloy wheels.

Silicon aluminum alloy for engine

Aluminum alloys for automobile engines are the most lightweight, generally reducing weight by more than 30%. In addition, both the cylinder block and the cylinder head of the engine require materials with good thermal conductivity and strong corrosion resistance, and aluminum alloys are very prominent in these aspects. Therefore, various automobile manufacturers have carried out the research and development of the aluminum alloy of the engine.

The development prospect of silicon aluminum alloy in automobile

Among lightweight metals, although the density of magnesium alloys is lower than that of silicon-aluminum alloys, the cost of magnesium ingots is higher, and there are many technical obstacles in the manufacturing process of parts, such as lack of high-temperature die-casting alloys and design data, poor surface treatment technology, and poor bonding level. Low-grade, so the current use in automobiles is quite limited; and although titanium alloys for aerospace have high mechanical strength, the manufacturing process is difficult and the manufacturing cost is expensive, resulting in the inability of titanium alloys to be applied to automobile production in large quantities. Aluminum alloy has good comprehensive performance in terms of cost, manufacturing technology, mechanical properties, sustainable development (the most aluminum content in the earth's crust, accounting for 8.1%), etc. Therefore, aluminum-silicon alloy is the preferred light metal material in the automotive industry now and in the future.
