With the world’s high attention to energy and environment, new energy vehicles have become an important development direction of the automotive industry in the future. Unlike traditional vehicles, forgings in new energy vehicles not only require the basic characteristics of traditional vehicle forgings such as durability and strength but also need to have new characteristics such as lightweight, low waste rate, and reasonable cost. So, what are the future development trends of forgings in new energy vehicles?
Firstly, at the national policy level, China has formulated a series of policies and measures to support the development of the new energy vehicle industry, such as promoting the demonstration and application of green vehicles, establishing new energy vehicle industrial parks, and actively cultivating leading enterprises in high-end new energy vehicles, etc. These policies will further promote the development of the new energy vehicle industry and drive the demand for forgings in new energy vehicles.
Secondly, in actual production, the future development trend of forgings in new energy vehicles is to adopt more advanced and sophisticated technologies. Some leading automotive parts manufacturing enterprises have gradually developed advanced forging technologies, such as using advanced lightweight materials, automated production lines, Internet of Things technology, etc., to produce forgings with the characteristics of lightweight, high strength, high precision, etc., to meet the needs of new energy vehicles.
In addition, in terms of forging materials, gradient forging technology has become a hot technology in the current new energy forging manufacturing field. This technology has important advantages in raw material utilization and environmental monitoring, which meets the requirements of national policies on energy conservation, emission reduction, and resource utilization improvement. In terms of forging structure design, lightweighting is one of the development directions, but of course, this also needs to consider the performance and safety factors of the forgings themselves.
In summary, the future development trend of forgings in new energy vehicles is to move towards more intelligent, lightweight, high strength and high durability. Future market demands will force companies to continuously innovate in terms of technology and manufacturing processes, and achieve more efficient, intelligent, and environmentally friendly automotive forging production through the continuous optimization of materials and process flows.
