World's first SSM magnesium alloy wheel debuts in Chongqing

The world's first magnesium alloy wheel using semi-solid molding (SSM) technique has been produced in Chongqing, China.

The magnesium alloy wheel, formed by Haitian's 3600T semi-solid magnesium injection moulding machine, was jointly developed by Chongqing University, Chongqing Dicastal Jieli Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Asian Metal Copyright, Ltd.Asian Metal Copyright, Ningbo Free Trade Zone Haitian Zhisheng Die Casting Equipment Co.Asian Metal Copyright The magnesium alloy wheel, formed by Haitian's 3600T semi-solid magnesium injection moulding machine, was jointly developed by Chongqing University, Chongqing Dicastal Jieli Wheel Manufacturing Co.Asian Metal Copyright, Ltd.Asian Metal Copyright, and Mingyue Lake Laboratory in Chongqing.Asian Metal Copyright, Chongqing Boao Magnesium Aluminium Manufacturing Co.Asian Metal Copyright Compared with the mainstream solid state molding for magnesium alloy wheel, the semi-solid injection molding technique uses four types of magnesium alloy to produce a 16-inch wheel for regular passenger car, with a net weight of 7kg, which is around 30% lighter than the traditional aluminum alloy wheel.Asian Metal Copyright, Ltd.Asian Metal Copyright Compared with the mainstream solid state molding for magnesium alloy wheel, the semi-solid injection molding technique uses four types of magnesium alloy to produce a 16-inch wheel for regular passenger car, with a net weight of 7kg, which is around 30% lighter than the traditional aluminum alloy wheel.Asian Metal Copyright, Chongqing Borun Mold Co.Asian Metal Copyright Compared with the mainstream solid state molding for magnesium alloy wheel, the semi-solid injection molding technique uses four types of magnesium alloy to produce a 16-inch wheel for regular passenger car, with a net weight of 7kg, which is around 30% lighter than the traditional aluminum alloy wheel.Asian Metal Copyright, Ltd.Asian Metal Copyright, Ltd.Asian Metal Copyright, and Mingyue Lake Laboratory in Chongqing.Asian Metal Copyright This marks another innovative product developed by Chongqing University since it debuted the world's biggest magnesium alloy die-casting automotive rare plate in 2023.Asian Metal Copyright This marks another innovative product developed by Chongqing University since it debuted the world's biggest magnesium alloy die-casting automotive rare plate in 2023.

Compared with the mainstream solid state molding for magnesium alloy wheel, the semi-solid injection molding technique uses four types of magnesium alloy to produce a 16-inch wheel for regular passenger car, with a net weight of 7kg, which is around 30% lighter than the traditional aluminum alloy wheel.

Chongqing University expects to strengthen cooperation with upstream and downstream partners and end-users to promote the design and development of semi-solid molding products to benefit from weight reduction and carbon reduction.
