Processing Technology of Aluminum Plate in Automotive Applications

2023-05-08

Aluminum plate manufacturers introduce the processing technology of aluminum plates in automotive body stamping production
1、 Application forms of aluminum in automobiles:
1. Aluminum alloy forgings (structural and fatigue parts with high strength requirements, such as suspension brackets and aluminum alloy wheels)
2. Molded castings (mainly including car wheels, various shells, engine cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, and other parts)
3. Aluminum alloy extrusion and aluminum sheet stamping products (producing aluminum alloy profiles for various body structural components)
4. Aluminum alloy rolled sheets (aluminum sheets for passenger car exterior covers, such as engine cover plates, luggage compartment cover plates, etc.) and cast parts.

In the current automotive industry, more and more aluminum plates are being applied to automobile manufacturing, and the use of aluminum plates for vehicle bodies is also an important technological innovation. The parts replaced by aluminum plates include engine hood, luggage compartment lid, fenders, etc. The replacement of aluminum plate materials for parts covered outside the vehicle body is more common.
Under optimized design, reasonable material selection, and advanced process technology, automotive aluminum sheet materials can effectively reduce the weight of passenger car bodies without affecting the safety structure of the vehicle. The application of automotive aluminum sheet materials has been extensively studied and promoted by various parties due to its advantages such as being conducive to safety regulations and protecting pedestrians in collisions.
