Automotive aluminum sheet used in automaking industry

Automotive aluminum sheet, aka auto aluminum sheet, is being used more and more because of its various properties, and even the hottest Tesla is using automotive aluminum sheets for sale to manufacture its own vehicles. So why is it so widely used in car manufacturing? Why should automakers choose this material? Let's take a look at what the car manufacturer Tesla has to say today!

In the interview, Tesla said that although there is a demand for anti-collision, the body material is not as hard as possible, but should be "hard and soft". Tesla's body structure is made of mixed steel and aluminum. This combination is closely related to the properties of steel and aluminum. First of all, high-strength steel has the advantages of long fatigue life, high collision absorption capacity, high strength, and large elastic deformation area, which can protect the body and prevent unknown dangers from bringing risks to passengers; and aluminum itself has better metal ductility , lighter weight, good heat dissipation performance. Many capabilities of automotive aluminum sheets are higher than those of traditional steel, and at the same time, they can also ensure the performance of body weight reduction and heat dissipation. In addition, Tesla's use of high-strength steel can reduce the wall thickness of parts; aluminum materials can reduce the weight of the car to a greater extent. The combination of the two can further reduce the body weight and improve the driving efficiency. Moreover, Tesla uses a giant die-casting machine in the manufacturing process to integrally form the rear bottom plate of some models to reduce the weight of the bottom plate, simplify the welding process, and improve product consistency while reducing weight.

Haomei is a very good supplier of automotive aluminum sheets. The aluminum sheets we produce have a high safety factor when used as automotive aluminum, and our pre-sales and after-sales services are very good. At the same time, due to the recent devaluation of RMB, foreign customers should buy more aluminum sheets made in China, which are more affordable at present. Generally the automotive aluminum plates we provide include 5 series aluminum sheet and 6 series aluminum sheets. If you want to buy Haomei automotive aluminum sheet, please send us an email!
