At present, due to the environmental demand for energy saving, automobile lightweighting has become a development trend. In the field of freight logistics, in order to comply with regulations and reduce weight, many manufacturers have adopted lighter aluminum alloy carriages. Aluminum carriages occupy an unshakable position in the truck market.

Many people question whether aluminum alloy carriages are reliable? Next, I will introduce them to you in detail.

What alloys are used in aluminum plates for aluminum alloy carriages?

Aluminum alloy carriages are commonly used in 5083 aluminum plates, 5754 aluminum plates, etc. The hardness of aluminum is only one-third compared to steel. However, due to the addition of other elements, the structure and formation of the material are changed, thereby enhancing the strength, corrosion resistance and Processability. The aluminum alloy carriage uses 5083 aluminum plates, which have the advantages of high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance, and high recycling value.

A large amount of data research shows that if the vehicle weight is reduced by 10%, the fuel efficiency can be increased by 6%-8%. Aluminum alloy truck compartments have many advantages such as lightweight, energy-saving, anti-corrosion sealing, long service life, and recyclability, and have become mainstream models in some countries.

Advantages of 5083 aluminum plates for truck compartments

1. Using aluminum plates for car compartments can reduce the overall vehicle quality to a certain extent and achieve lightweighting of the body;
2. Aluminum alloy plates have excellent oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and anti-rust properties, and the aluminum alloy carriages have a long service life;
3. Aluminum alloy has good ductility and is easy to process, which can reduce material waste and is economical and practical;
4. The welding performance of the carriage body is greater, which increases the safety factor of the vehicle;
5. The aluminum plate used for the carriage body is light in weight. Under the same weight of the iron carriage and the aluminum carriage, the aluminum alloy carriage can carry more goods;
6. Aluminum alloy is easy to recycle and more environmentally friendly. 5 series aluminum alloy products have excellent characteristics and are widely used in the field of automobile manufacturing. They are of great significance to the development of lightweight vehicles. As its application advantages become more prominent, its share in the automotive manufacturing field will become increasingly high.
