[SMM Magnesium Express]Recently, it was reported that Shanxi Kelite Precision Casting Technology Co., Ltd. plans to officially commence production of its light alloy integrated die-casting project in mid-July. With a total investment of 100 million yuan, the project can produce 8 million lightweight robotic precision structural components annually, primarily serving sectors such as meal-delivery robots, household service robots, and new energy vehicles. Leveraging Shanxi's magnesium ore resource advantages, the company has successfully transformed from a traditional pipe-casting enterprise into a high-end precision manufacturing entity. It has introduced cold high-pressure die-casting core technologies and established a provincial-level doctoral entrepreneurship station in collaboration with North University of China. With the project's launch, the large-scale application of magnesium alloy in intelligent robotics and new energy vehicles is expected to deepen further, accelerating the transition of traditional casting enterprises toward high-end magnesium alloy manufacturing.
