Recently (June 14), Shanghai Yongmaotai Automobile Technology Co., Ltd. (“Yongmaotai”) said when receiving research institutions that in terms of integrated large-scale die-casting, the company will actively deploy primary aluminum alloy production bases, and cooperate with Shanghai Jiaotong University Light Industry Co., Ltd. The National Engineering Research Center for Alloy Precision Forming, Shenyang University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, etc., focus on R&D and production of heat-free aluminum alloy materials for integrated super-large die-casting parts (new energy vehicle body, chassis, etc.), and promote the application to new energy vehicle enterprises .
According to reports, in 2012, Yongmaotai cooperated with Shanghai Jiaotong University to jointly develop high-strength and tough die-casting aluminum alloy materials (heat-free materials). . The products produced are used in Volkswagen engine oil pans, and have been supplied in large quantities for many years since 2013.
Yongmaotai said that at present, the company is independently or cooperatively developing high thermal conductivity aluminum alloy materials, heat treatment-free high-strength and high-toughness aluminum alloy materials, heat-treatment-free high elongation aluminum alloy materials, and high-strength integrated die-casting aluminum alloy materials. The products have higher The comprehensive properties such as elongation, tensile strength and yield strength are good, and some materials are in the stage of sample delivery and trial production to auto parts customers.
It is understood that Yongmaotai is mainly engaged in the business of casting aluminum alloy and aluminum alloy auto parts for automobiles, and currently has production bases in Shanghai, Anhui, Shandong, Sichuan and other places. Among them, aluminum alloy products for automobiles include aluminum alloy ingots and aluminum alloy liquid, accounting for about 75% of revenue, and auto parts products include traditional fuel vehicle parts and new energy vehicle parts.
for the future development of the company. Yongmaotai said that the company will speed up the lightweight process of new energy vehicles, focusing on R&D and development of lightweight, high-strength, high-toughness, self-strengthening aluminum alloy new materials, new processes, new products, new customers, and new markets for new energy vehicles. Among them, the aluminum alloy business will focus on the research and development of heat-free aluminum alloys for integrated super-large die-casting, and the mass production operation of the 100,000-ton aluminum ash slag resource utilization project.
In terms of auto parts business, Yongmaotai will focus on the development of new energy vehicle drive systems (battery packs, motors, gearboxes, electronic controls), body, calipers, air conditioner compressors, etc., as well as aluminum, copper and other components. At the same time, the company will pay close attention to the application of aluminum alloys in other industries, and use its own advantages to further expand the width of the product line.
