Development trend of aluminum die casting
Nov 19, 2024
The development trend of aluminum die-casting mainly includes the following aspects:
Technological innovation and automated production: In recent years, more and more domestic die-casting companies have begun to introduce advanced automated production equipment and increase investment in technology research and development, striving to achieve breakthroughs in product precision, material performance, production efficiency, etc. For example, the application of high-pressure casting technology improves the density and strength of products, and is widely used in industries such as automobiles and aviation that have high requirements for product performance. In addition, the application of digital and information technology in die-casting production is also becoming more and more extensive. For example, the integration of technologies such as automated control systems, the Internet of Things, and cloud computing not only improves the controllability of the production process, but also greatly reduces production costs and improves production efficiency.
Enhanced environmental protection and energy-saving requirements: With the continuous improvement of the country's requirements for environmental protection and energy-saving, die-casting companies have gradually realized the importance of green manufacturing. The use of environmentally friendly casting materials and the application of clean energy have gradually become a major trend in the development of the industry. For example, aluminum alloy die-casting is widely used in the field of new energy vehicles due to its low density, good thermal conductivity, and strong corrosion resistance, which helps to improve vehicle performance and reduce energy consumption and emissions.
Changes in market demand: With the diversification of market demand, especially the rapid development in the fields of consumer electronics, new energy vehicles, and smart hardware, the product demand of the die-casting industry has also developed in the direction of high precision, small batches, and multiple varieties. The traditional large-scale and mass production methods are gradually replaced by more flexible production models. Especially in the automotive industry, more and more car companies require higher standards for the precision and quality of parts. Die-casting companies need to provide customized products according to customer needs and ensure the consistency and stability of products. Industry integration and concentration: With the intensification of market competition, the concentration of the domestic die-casting industry has gradually increased. The production capacity and technical level of small and medium-sized enterprises are relatively weak, and it is difficult to meet the increasingly stringent market requirements. Therefore, the trend of integration in the industry is becoming increasingly obvious. Through continuous research and development and lean production, some companies have continuously expanded their production scale and raised their technical level to the domestic and even world leading level; other companies have gradually been eliminated due to backward process level and low production capacity. Development of integrated die-casting technology: The emergence of integrated die-casting technology has brought revolutionary changes to the industry. This technology led by Tesla integrates multiple parts into an integrated molding through large-tonnage die-casting equipment, which not only greatly reduces manufacturing costs and weight, but also improves the safety and durability of the car body. In addition, the integration trend of new energy electric drive systems from "three-in-one" to "multi-in-one" has also promoted the development of shell integration.
