The production line for automotive aluminum sheet will put into operation in 2018 - Mingtai aluminum

-
In recent years, the global automobile industries are showing a trend of lightweight development under the pressure of energy conservation and fuel efficiency, so a upsurge in car aluminum sheet is in the making. China has been unable to produce aluminum alloy car sheet by its own, so Mingtai seize the market opportunities, working to develop this new technology. At present, Mingtai is able to produce the aluminum alloy sheet samples, and expected that it can be put into operation in 2018.
Aluminum has been used in automobile manufacturing for more than 100 years. Recently, car manufacturing began to make extensive use of aluminum materials, aluminum industrial giants in developed countries are now carrying out an unprecedented large-scale technical renovation on the production of automotive aluminum sheet, the new global capacity of automotive aluminum sheet will reach 2 million tons in 2017.
The principal of Mingtai Aluminum technology research department said:" compared to steel, the aluminum products has advantages in many aspects, such as transport efficiency, energy conservation, traffic safety and so on.
The density of aluminum alloy is less than steel, in the same volume, aluminum alloy is equivalent to 1/3 the weight of steel. It is estimated that each the weight loss of 100 kg, the fuel consumption of car can be reduced about 2%, as well as the power performance will be improved. With the same weight of aluminum alloy steel, the cost of aluminum alloy is higher than steel about a quarter, but the recycling rate of aluminum is much higher than that of steel, so the overall costs of aluminum alloy is still lower than steel in the long run.
Some people will worry about the safety of a car body that made of aluminum alloy, because the strength of aluminum is less than that of steel, and experts say this is a misunderstanding. According to professional test, aluminum has a very good energy absorption effect, so its safety factor is higher than that of steel when hit by other cars, in addition, aluminum alloy hood and other aluminum parts can reduce the second injury to the human body.

 A pontoon boat is a flat boat that relies on floats to maintain buoyancy. These pontoons (also called tubes) contain large amounts of reserve buoyancy, allowing designers to plan spacious seating areas, stand-up bars, sun pads and various other amenities such as large decks. A pontoon boat has a shallow draft of about 8 inches (20 cm), which reduces the risk of running aground or being damaged in the water and allows you to access your luggage closer to shore. Aluminum pontoon boat refers to a new type of floating bridge made of  6063 aluminum alloy . The surface has been scientifically treated to enhance the frame's antioxidant and corrosion resistance. Aluminum pontoon boats offer high strength, ease of assembly, modern colors and durability. Aluminum alloy pontoon bridge is divided into main pontoon bridge and branch pontoon bridge. Aluminum profiles are specially designed for marine environments, have very good corrosion resistance, are suitable for rivers, lakes an...

  With the increasing energy density and power density of the power batteries in new energy vehicles, the battery charge and discharge rates are higher, leading to increased heat generation. Traditional cooling methods such as natural cooling or air cooling are no longer sufficient to meet the requirements. Water cooling has gradually become the mainstream cooling method. The water cooling plate is an important component of the cooling management system for power batteries in new energy vehicles, effectively cooling and protecting the batteries. The water cooling plate for power batteries in new energy vehicles has excellent performance using 3003 aluminum alloy sheet. The main element in  3003 aluminum sheet  is manganese, which provides excellent corrosion resistance. It is lightweight and has high formability for stamping. It has excellent processing properties and good weldability. It exhibits good resistance to corrosion and oxidation, high toughness, avoids deformat...
