On August 24th, the International magnesium Association announced the 2021 International magnesium Association Automotive casting Excellence Award at the 78th World magnesium Congress. The award was awarded for the AZ91D magnesium alloy charger shell of Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV). The winners are Wanfeng magnesium Reading lightweight Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Wanfeng magnesium Reading") and Subaru Automobile Company.
Magnesium alloy charger shell is a product designed by Subaru Automobile Company and Wanfeng magnesium Reading. The magnesium alloy parts are produced in Wanfeng magnesium Reading's Shanghai plant and assembled in Japan. They have excellent heat dissipation performance and can be quickly charged at 240V. The parts are assembled with two AZ91D magnesium alloy castings with weights of 1.56kg and 0.69kg respectively, replacing two-piece aluminum castings with a weight loss of 25%. The casting design of the magnesium alloy parts provides low draft angle and thin-walled cross-section, and self-tapping fasteners can be used to reduce the machining process. This is the first time that magnesium alloy has been used in the shell of car charger, which shows more potential of magnesium in electric vehicles.
