Nowadays, aluminum alloy has many uses in cars. Where is aluminum alloy suitable for use in cars?
1. The use of aluminum alloy materials for gearbox casings has long been used abroad, but in recent years, transmissions using aluminum alloy casings have only been widely promoted in China. Taking the Jiefang CA12TAXM3 aluminum alloy housing gearbox as an example, compared to the cast iron housing gearbox, the weight can be reduced by 108 kilograms.
2. In addition to some large components, some companies have also attempted aluminum alloying on some small accessories. Liberation has a truck that uses an aluminum alloy cab lifter and engine support. In addition, in some corners that are not easy to find, many components have already started using aluminum alloy materials.
3. The proportion of aluminum alloy in aluminum alloy trailers is very high, and apart from the axles and pipelines, most of them can be made of aluminum alloy.
4. The front and rear wheel suspensions of luxury cars are mostly made of aluminum, and the wheels of most cars are also made of aluminum
5. Many manufacturers also use aluminum sheet stamping to make collision beams, engine guards, and other parts of cars.
The advantages of using aluminum alloy in automobiles
1. Aluminum alloy material is lightweight, high in strength, and has a significant weight reduction effect on automobiles.
2. It can improve the driving quality of vehicles and enhance their performance. If cast aluminum alloy material is used for the front and rear suspension, it can reduce the weight on the wheels, improve the flexibility of the wheels, and reduce their vibration amplitude.
3. It can improve the fuel economy of vehicles.
