Recently, Wanfeng Aowei introduced the company's magnesium alloy layout on the investor interactive platform, saying that Wanfeng magnesium Reading is a global leader in lightweight and deep processing of magnesium alloys, improving the application of magnesium alloy components in the vehicle from the design end, and continuing to expand the application of magnesium alloys in North America. In the future, the development of the company's magnesium alloy market in Asia, especially in China, highlights the transformation of magnesium alloy technical advantages into market application. (1) promote the strategic development of T3room1, and intervene in the development of new models of traditional leading car manufacturing enterprises in China from the product design end of new models, which is responsible for the design, manufacture and service of large magnesium alloy castings, involving nearly ten complete vehicle models, among which the products under development or quotation include magnesium alloy products such as dashboard bracket, front-end module, display shell and screen elevator bracket with remarkable results, among which the products under development or quotation include dashboard bracket, front-end module, display shell, screen elevator bracket and other magnesium alloy products. (2) strengthen the cooperation with the R & D source of new energy vehicle manufacturers. New energy vehicles are located at the middle and high end, and have cooperated at the development source of new energy vehicle manufacturers, such as Lulai, Xiaopeng, BYD, Evergrande New Energy, and so on. Some products have been supplied in bulk. (3) keeping the core competitive advantage of magnesium alloy die casting and mastering the combined technology of magnesium alloy die casting is the key for the company's magnesium alloy business to become the industry leader. The company will fully grasp the development opportunities of new energy vehicles and maintain the leading position of magnesium alloy application technology and market.

Under the T331 strategic cooperation mechanism, the company is responsible for the design, manufacture and service of large magnesium alloy castings; the first batch of R & D products focus on dashboard brackets, wheels, front-end modules and gearbox shells, involving nearly ten vehicle models, among which the products under development or quotation include dashboard brackets, front-end modules, display housing, screen elevator brackets and other magnesium alloy products. At present, some products have been used in batch on some models, and some common and key technologies of magnesium alloy forming are under cooperative research and development.

Wanfeng Aowei pointed out that in view of the advantages and disadvantages of magnesium alloy and high-strength steel / aluminum alloy materials and their reasonable application environment, it is not suitable to replace all metal parts of the automobile. At present, the total consumption of the company's mature magnesium alloy products, such as automobile dashboard skeleton, rear door inner panel, front-end frame and so on, is about 100kg, which has become the preferred partner for magnesium alloy lightweight in automobile mainframe factory. In addition, the lithium battery magnesium alloy shell structure developed by the company has the conditions for mass production after winning the award, and it is being promoted in the market, but it has not yet begun mass supply.
