Application of Magnesium Alloy


With the continuous development and application of magnesium alloy forming technology, magnesium alloy die-casting structural parts will be more and more widely used in automobiles, home appliances, communication electronics, light tools, aerospace, military industry and other fields, and its consumption proportion will increase sharply to more than 60%. At present, magnesium alloys (die castings) are mainly used in die-casting products such as mobile phones, notebook computer shells, and trims, and are also widely used in industries such as car and home appliance manufacturing.

1) The car: generally used to make the seat frame, instrument panel/plate, steering wheel/steering wheel and steering column, roof cover, gear box, door frame, wheel hub, rear wheel cover of automobile, cylinder (top) cover of automobile engine, cylinder block, bracket, transmission housing, clutch housing, fuel tank bottom shell, dust pan, valve cover, air suction valve and air purifier cover, bracket, convertible ring, steering wheel damping shaft, motor, intake manifold, security parts and other parts (of which, the steering wheel, steering column and wheel hub are parts that use more magnesium alloys). We believe that with the continuous development of related technologies, more auto parts will be made of magnesium alloy.

2, mobile phones: because magnesium alloy has the characteristics of vibration resistance, wear resistance, especially the special function of shielding electromagnetic waves, is extremely important for mobile phones, these characteristics can help to eliminate consumers' doubts about whether electromagnetic waves will affect human health. Although the cost of magnesium alloy is still high, because magnesium alloy has the characteristics of light texture, high temperature resistance, strong plasticity and strong anti-magnetic ability, it will definitely win more favor from mobile phone manufacturers and consumers.

3, laptop shell: now the laptop shell emphasizes good heat dissipation, light weight, strong wear and bright colors and other characteristics. The materials of notebook computer shells on the market are mainly ABS plastic, carbon fiber, aluminum-magnesium alloy and titanium alloy, but in general, the materials that are more popular with the market and consumers are aluminum-magnesium alloy and titanium alloy products. The single sheet thickness of magnesium alloy material products is about 1.0mm, light weight and good ductility. Magnesium alloy after the development momentum is more optimistic.

4. Precision instruments: The impact resistance of magnesium alloy makes it more suitable for the production of high-rigidity integral components and impacted parts, such as the shell and base of the instrument. In the transmission of vibration damping damping effect, can improve the sensitivity and stability of the instrument.

5. National defense and aerospace: it can make gear boxes and horizontal rotor accessories for military helicopters, aircraft landing wheels, gear box covers, anti-tank grenades, light tanks and armored ambulances, part of the structural parts, cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, Gearbox body, missile shell and tail, radar locator shell, etc. In addition, magnesium alloy can also be widely used in the production of cameras, cameras, projectors, video recorders, chainsaws, lawn mowers, rechargeable batteries, Mike, headphones, MD and CD players, handheld computers (I. e., handheld HPC) and TV and other home appliances decorative parts.

The application of magnesium alloy is briefly introduced. The application of magnesium alloys in automobiles is also mentioned above. Then we will introduce in detailApplication of Magnesium Alloy in Automobile: Since the Middle East oil crisis in 1970, in order to reduce the quality of automobiles, reduce fuel consumption and pollution, and improve safety performance, the application of magnesium alloy materials in the automobile industry has increased day by day. At present, the regions and countries with more magnesium alloys in the automotive industry are mainly North America, Europe, Japan and South Korea. Comprehensive part of the use of manufacturers, so far, a total of more than 60 parts of the car using magnesium alloy:

1. Interior components: instrument panel, seat frame, seat lifter, console frame, airbag cover, steering wheel, locking device cover, steering column, steering column bracket, radio case, small toolbox door, window Motor cover, brake and clutch pedal bracket, pneumatic bracket pedal, etc.

2. Car body components: door frame, tail plate, roof frame, roof panel, IP beam, etc.

3. Engine and transmission system: valve cover, cam cover, four-wheel drive gearbox, manual shift transmission, clutch housing piston, intake pipe, oil pan, AC motor bracket, transmission housing, gearbox housing, oil Filter joint, motor cover, cylinder head cover, distribution plate bracket, oil pump housing, oil tank, oil filter bracket, left half crankcase, right half crankcase, empty, left suction pipe, right suction pipe of hood, etc.

4. Chassis: wheel hub, engine bracket, front and rear boom, tail plate bracket.
