In the past two years, with the rapid development of new energy vehicles in China, especially the further increase of the high-end electric vehicle market, it has brought new opportunities to the industrial application of carbon fiber composite materials.
As a leading enterprise in the field of carbon fiber composite materials in China, JLHY Carbon Fiber Material Technology Co., Ltd. New Material R & D Co., Ltd. has also made huge investments in the research and development of automotive carbon fiber components in recent years. Its R & D and supply capabilities have also been recognized by automotive OEMs.
On February 24th, JLHY announced that it has obtained small batch orders from several OEM OEMs in China to produce carbon fiber composite luggage guards, rear floor assemblies, seat panel assemblies, and rear floor beam assembly components for electric vehicles. Bring the application of carbon fiber composite materials into mass production stage. At present, the company has completed the production of trial parts, and the order is expected to be delivered in June 2020.
The total investment of JLHY's carbon fiber composite materials project is 350 million yuan, and the annual production capacity of carbon fiber composite materials parts reaches 300,000. At present, it has signed a letter of intent with many OEMs to carry out targeted product development according to different models.
The carbon fiber trunk cover (weight 1.2kg) introduced this time can replace traditional metal parts (2.35kg). In the case of weight loss of 48.9%, its mechanical properties including torsional stiffness and bending stiffness are equivalent to the latter, taking into account the dual requirements of the OEM on the performance of parts and weight reduction.
For the first time in China, this product uses a mold that can be applied to both HP-RTM and WCM (Wet Compression Molding) molding processes. It is used to set the shape of the product's rubber barrier structure, and can also reduce the waste rate of resin, which is a new exploration of the molding process.
The company is committed to becoming a new material solution provider integrating R & D, production, sales and testing technology services of fiber-reinforced resin-based composite materials, and its products are oriented to many fields such as automotive, aerospace, rail transportation, marine engineering and ships. The company will continue to develop new products and technologies to bring new vitality to the industry.
