Stainless steel forgings, as a high-strength and corrosion-resistant metal material, are widely used in the automotive and engineering machinery industries. According to national policy information, the future development of the automotive and engineering machinery industries will continue, and their demand will further increase, so the application prospect of stainless steel forgings is very broad.
Firstly, with the strengthening of environmental protection policies, stainless steel forgings are increasingly widely used in automotive emission control systems. For example, in automotive catalytic converters, stainless steel forgings can be used as carrier and lining materials. Its excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature oxidation resistance can effectively improve the durability and conversion efficiency of the catalytic converter, thereby reducing exhaust emissions.
In addition, stainless steel forgings are also extensively used in automotive parts. For example, key components such as bearings, gears, and camshafts in engines, transmissions, and steering systems can all be manufactured using stainless steel forgings to improve wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and fatigue resistance.
Regarding the engineering machinery industry, stainless steel forgings are also extensively used in the accessories of heavy machinery such as elevators, excavators, and bulldozers. For example, in large excavator hydraulic systems, stainless steel forgings can be used as pipe connecting parts and valve materials. It has advantages such as corrosion resistance, high strength, and high-temperature resistance, which can improve the reliability and safety of engineering machinery.
Furthermore, national policies have also increased the application of stainless steel forgings in these industries. For example, policy documents such as “Made in China 2025” and “One Belt One Road” clearly stated that it is necessary to promote the transformation and upgrading of the automotive and engineering machinery industries, improve the quality level of the industry, and promote the application of environmental protection and energy-saving technologies. These policies will further promote the application and development of stainless steel forgings.
In summary, the application prospect of stainless steel forgings in the automotive and engineering machinery industries is broad. With the support of national policies and the development of the industry, its application field will continuously expand.
