Shandong Firm Secures Funding for Advanced Dissolvable Magnesium Alloys in Shale Gas Tech

[SMM Magnesium Express]Yesterday, Henan Dewei Co., Ltd. was intensifying performance testing and final approval for the second batch of magnesium alloy wheels supplied to Ford in the U.S. The company has independently developed and mastered the core patent for "one-time forward and reverse forging process of magnesium alloy automotive wheels," operating the only two mass production lines for magnesium alloy wheels globally. Its products have been certified by premium automakers such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Porsche, making it the sole domestic magnesium alloy wheel manufacturer capable of mass supplying high-end automakers. With the continuous enhancement of magnesium alloy wheel mass production capabilities, the competitiveness of domestic lightweight components in the international market is expected to further improve.

[Morning Purchases Lift Magnesium Prices Slightly; High Inventory and Weak Demand Cap Upside Room] The quotation for 99.90% magnesium ingot in main production areas was at 15,800-15,900 yuan/mt today, up from the previous working day.

[SMM Magnesium Express]Recently, Shanghai FANUC collaborated with Fengyang Ailse Light Alloy Precision Forming Co., Ltd. to develop a customized integrated die-casting automation solution for magnesium alloy, successfully overcoming the bottleneck in large-scale production. This solution covers the entire process, including high-temperature part removal and workpiece handling, and is suitable for producing various magnesium alloy components such as electric vehicle frames and new energy vehicle battery housings. The production line has been operating continuously and stably for over half a year, significantly improving production efficiency and product consistency. With ongoing advancements in die-casting automation, the large-scale application of magnesium alloy in the new energy vehicle and electric two-wheeler sectors is expected to accelerate further.
