What are the benefits of aluminum alloy engine blocks?
1 Answers
Aluminum alloy engine blocks offer the following advantages: 1. Excellent heat dissipation; 2. Lower engine weight; 3. Reduction in overall vehicle installation weight. However, the superior heat dissipation property of aluminum alloy poses technical challenges during the casting process of engine block remanufacturing, requiring higher technical parameters. Producing engine blocks through die-casting can shorten the process route, enhance productivity, and demonstrate significant technical and economic advantages. With increasing demands for environmental protection and lightweighting, many critical automotive components such as engine blocks are gradually transitioning to die-casting production.
