[SMM Magnesium Express] The second batch of magnesium alloy lightweight trailers jointly developed by Xi'an Jiaotong University and Shaanxi Automobile Group has, after more than three months of operation, cumulatively traveled over 30,000 kilometers. Their outstanding performance and stable operation have successfully verified the application potential of magnesium alloy materials. Each magnesium alloy trailer uses over 800 kilograms of magnesium alloy, achieving a comprehensive weight reduction of nearly 1 ton compared to the original steel-based solution. However, the weight-reduced trailers do not affect load capacity or driving, maintaining good handling and stability while also reducing damage to the road surface. Currently, the second batch of magnesium alloy lightweight trailers has cumulatively traveled over 30,000 kilometers, demonstrating good adaptability and reliability in the heavy-load scenario of coal transportation.
