Magnesium alloy die castings are widely used

1. Aerospace field

As far as aviation materials are concerned, structural weight reduction and structural bearing and function integration are important directions for the development of aircraft structural materials. Magnesium has long been used in the aerospace industry due to its low density and high specific strength. The economic benefits and performance improvements brought by the weight reduction of aviation materials are very significant. The fuel cost savings brought by the same weight of commercial aircraft and automobile weight reduction is nearly 100 times that of the latter. The fighter's fuel cost savings are nearly 10 times that of commercial aircraft. More importantly, its improved maneuverability can greatly improve its combat effectiveness and survivability. Because of this, the aviation industry will take various measures to increase the amount of magnesium alloy.

2. Military field

Magnesium alloys have the characteristics of light weight, good specific strength and rigidity, good vibration damping performance and strong electromagnetic interference shielding ability, which can meet the requirements of military products for weight reduction, noise absorption, shock absorption and radiation protection.

1, the automotive field

The use of magnesium alloys as automotive parts typically exhibits the following advantages:

1) Improve fuel economy comprehensive standards and reduce exhaust emissions and fuel costs. According to estimates, 60% of the fuel used in automobiles is consumed by the weight of the car. For every 10% reduction in vehicle weight, fuel consumption will be reduced by 8%-10%;

2) Weight reduction can increase the load capacity and payload of the vehicle, while also improving braking and acceleration performance;

3) It can greatly improve the noise and vibration of the vehicle.

4, motorcycle field

Over the past 50 years, through continuous technological innovation, the application of magnesium alloys on motorcycles has been continuously expanded in breadth and depth. The application models have been extended from racing cars to sporty motorcycles, lightweight motorcycles and concept motorcycles. Several major motorcycle brands, magnesium alloy applications cover power systems, transmission systems and a variety of motorcycle accessories more than 40 kinds, of which only Dymay wheels in the UK can apply up to 400 models. The application of domestic motorcycle magnesium alloy is still blank. Chongqing Longxin took the lead in the trial production of the "magnesium alloy green concept motorcycle" model LXl50, which has attracted wide attention in China. The 12 parts used have now been 3 Achieve large-scale production.

5, 3C field

3C products - Computer, Communication, Consum·erElectronicProduct (computer, communication, consumer electronics) is the fastest growing industry in the world, and digital technology has led to the emergence of various digital products. Magnesium alloy 3C products first appeared in Japan. In 1998, Japanese manufacturers began to use magnesium alloy materials in various portable products (such as PDAs, mobile phones, etc.). Today, the most popular 3C products using magnesium alloys are notebook computers, also from Japan. Sony was the first to launch. Driven by the trend of 3C products in light, thin, short and small directions, the application of magnesium alloys has continued to grow in recent years.
