The differences between forgings for new energy vehicles and traditional cars are significant, covering aspects such as material selection, manufacturing process, and performance requirements. This article will elaborate on these differences from the perspectives of national policies and actual production.
From the perspective of national policies, the Chinese government’s relevant policies aim to encourage the development of forgings for new energy vehicles. In 2019, China issued the “Development Plan for New Energy and Intelligent Networked Vehicles (2021-2035)”, which put forward requirements for high demand, high quality, stable performance, and safety and reliability of forgings for new energy vehicles. At the same time, this plan also pointed out that green materials and green manufacturing will become a trend in the development of forgings for new energy vehicles.
In terms of actual production, forgings for new energy vehicles differ from those for traditional cars in terms of materials and production processes. Firstly, forgings for new energy vehicles require higher material requirements, such as higher tensile strength and heat resistance, to cope with the high-temperature environment of batteries. Secondly, the structural design and shape of forgings for new energy vehicles are also different, so corresponding forging processes are needed. For example, some forgings for new energy vehicles require precise forging technology to ensure their precision and shape stability.
In addition, forgings for new energy vehicles also need to have higher environmental protection. To meet relevant environmental protection requirements, some forging manufacturers have adopted advanced environmental protection technologies, such as recycling and reuse of water resources during the production process, to reduce the impact of production on the environment.
In conclusion, there are significant differences between forgings for new energy vehicles and traditional cars in terms of materials, production processes, and performance requirements. In terms of policy support and production practice, people are constantly exploring the development path of forgings for new energy vehicles, making contributions to better serve environmental protection and economic sustainable development.
