Magnesium Alloy: Material of the Future 镁合金：未来的材料 At The Auto Shanghai This Year, Many Brands Including Bmw And Volkswagen Highlighted Their New Energy Vehicles. Mercedes-Benz even started to develop a luxury electric car series. The development of new energy vehicles has become an unstoppable trend. A new round of competition has begun. Magnesium and magnesium-alloys are recognized as one of the lightest structural metallic materials and are known as green materials with great development and application potential in the 21st century. Magnesium alloys have the advantages of light weight, high strength, good mechanical properties and heat dissipation, etc., making them the preferred material for lightweight vehicles. It is for sure that there will be more and more applications with the advent of the electric era. Bestseller in China, Germany, and US Long-term strategic cooperation with customers In the international market, the promotion of new energy vehicles brought a lot of demand. Despite the impact of the pandemic, several customers in China, Germany and the United States purchased the Thixomolding machines from YIZUMI for the production of lightweight components. In April this year, the U.S. customer completed the installation and commissioning of the machine and ran a trial production of a 1.5 kg seatback. The customer is very satisfied with the product quality. In addition, the customers in Germany and China have also achieved mass production and are pleased with the machine efficiency and product yield. CASTWERK is a German company specialized in auto part production, producing structural parts like new energy vehicle screens. Their customers include large auto parts suppliers such as BOSCH and Continental, and end customers such as Volkswagen. In response to the market demand, the company is planning to import the third Thixomolding machine from YIZUMI this summer. Meigaomei Nuojiang (Tongchuan) New Materials Co., Ltd. is a hi-tech enterprise specialized in the design, R&D, and production of high-strength magnesium alloy materials. They supply high-quality magnesium alloy customized products to the aerospace-, military-, automotive-, 3C-, biomedical-, high-end equipment-, and other industries. The enterprise focuses on the Thixomolding technology R&D while mass-producing magnesium alloy parts. Besides manufacturers, R&D institutions are also important strategic partners for YIZUMI. The Center of Casting Lightweight Materials and Engineering at the University of Kassel (GTK) is a research institute which has its focus on casting technology. At present, the center teams up with YIZUMI to research the use of a multiple points hot runner system for our Thixomolding technol-
