ZJWF Light Alloy Technology Group announced on the evening of November 26 that the company and FAW [Audi China Joint Venture Partner], DFW [PSA China Joint Venture Partner], CQCA [Ford China Joint Venture Partner] signed the "Mg Alloy Auto Parts Material Forming and Processing Technology Research The Cooperation Agreement will jointly promote the development and application of large-scale thin-walled complex magnesium alloy die castings for auto parts.
The main content of the cooperation agreement: ZJWF and three OEMs collaborated in magnesium alloy application research, magnesium alloy parts technology development, magnesium alloy parts process development and test verification, and magnesium alloy parts promotion and application to accelerate the application of magnesium alloys in automobiles . Under the framework of this cooperation mechanism, all parties will perform their respective duties to establish a division of labor mechanism in typical auto parts such as wheel development, instrument panel brackets, front-end modules, and jointly promote the development of auto parts for large thin-walled complex magnesium alloy die castings And application.
3 OEMs will provide new model platforms or mass-produced models, select appropriate parts, and carry out the promotion and application of magnesium alloy technology. The company undertakes the structural design, process and mold design of magnesium alloy large-scale castings, and together with 3 OEMs, it establishes magnesium alloy material characteristics, material high-speed tensile curves and failure judgment criteria, collision performance CAE optimization, large-scale casting design, process, and connection And anti-corrosion technology for research.
According to the plan of "Energy-saving and New Energy Vehicle Technology Roadmap", the amount of magnesium used in automobiles will reach 15kg in 2025, and the market for magnesium alloy applications is huge. If the cooperation goes on smoothly, the independent R&D and application of magnesium alloy auto parts under the T31 mechanism will greatly promote the application and development of magnesium alloy parts in the Chinese auto industry, and form a certain market promotion demonstration effect, which will be beneficial to the company's magnesium alloy business Localized applications, increased market share and the company`s sustainable development have had a positive impact.
