Features
|
1. Forging aluminum alloy material
Because there is no solid-liquid-solid transition of the material , the inseparable components such as segregation, loosening, and oxide inclusions are avoided.
2. After the forging process deforms the billet forging, the material structure becomes denser, do the mechanical properties of the material are higher.
3. the mechanical properties of all parts of the forging wheels are the same.
|
|
1. Due to casting molding reasons, castings have different mechanical properties at different locations due to different cooling conditions.
2. Spokes generally have an elongation of about 4% , while rims have an elongation of about 10%. therefore, the aluminum wheels produced by the casting process can only be used in the area of cars.

Meet the needs of flat tires
|
the mechanical strength of the aluminum alloy wheel produced by the forging process is more suitable for the flat tire requirements of the vehicle
