Lightweight has become a major trend in the development of the automotive industry, and it plays a very important role in the economy of energy consumption and the optimization of automotive performance. Aluminum alloy has outstanding comprehensive cost-effectiveness and is the preferred material for lightweight automotive applications.
Aluminum has good mechanical properties, with a density only 1/3 that of steel. It has good thermal conductivity, good corrosion resistance, excellent processability, and obvious lightweight effect. Its application in car bodies is constantly expanding. The car body, four doors and two covers, seat frame, interior, fuel tank, wheel hub, etc. can all be made of aluminum alloy, among which the body skin is generally made of 5052 aluminum plate in H32 state.
The main alloying element of 5052 aluminum alloy plate is magnesium, which has good formability, corrosion resistance, weldability, and moderate strength. The car skin is made of 5052 ultra wide aluminum plates, and precision sheet metal technology is also used. This technology can improve the safety of the entire vehicle, making it not afraid of collisions, corrosion-resistant, and long service life.
The use of 5052 aluminum alloy plates for automotive skin is of great significance
1. Good results in weight reduction and energy conservation and emission reduction. As the weight of the vehicle decreases, fuel consumption and environmental pollution will decrease.
2. Improved security. Reducing the weight of the vehicle body can cause the center of gravity of the entire vehicle to move downwards, making operation smoother and further improving product safety performance.
3. Materials can be recycled and reused. Aluminum material has high recycling value and can be recycled and reused.
