Jiangsu Boshi Technology: Carbon fiber is used in the production of automobile bodies, showing the advantages of light weight

Energy conservation, emission reduction, and sustainable development are issues worthy of attention in the automobile manufacturing industry at present. Using lightweight materials instead of traditional metal materials can realize the lightweight of automobiles. This is an important method to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction . Carbon fiber composite material is an important material and a key material in the development of the country's high-tech industry.

With the improvement of the current emission regulations, under the premise of ensuring safety and power, reducing fuel consumption and vehicle emissions is the top priority of the automobile manufacturing industry. Carbon fiber composites have the advantages of light weight, high strength, high stiffness, and corrosion resistance, and are increasingly valued by the automotive industry.

Compared with metal materials, carbon fiber composite materials can play a huge role in the automobile manufacturing industry by utilizing many advantages. Carbon fiber composite materials have the properties of low density and high strength. They are used in the body and chassis, etc., which can reduce the weight of the vehicle without losing strength and stiffness, and ensure the safety index of the vehicle. Strong toughness determines that it has high impact resistance and energy absorption capacity, which can improve the collision safety performance of vehicles.

Among the various materials applied to automobile manufacturing, carbon fiber composite materials are the lightest, especially compared with metal materials such as steel, carbon fiber composite materials have a greater advantage in weight. Carbon fiber composite materials are applied to the body, chassis and load-bearing parts, which can not only achieve the purpose of reducing the weight of the car, but also ensure the safety of the vehicle.

At present, many models on the market have begun to use carbon fiber composite materials on a large scale. The main compartments of BMW i3 and i8 are made of carbon fiber composite materials, while Lamborghini, Chery Arrizo 7, Yamaha, Aoxin, Apollo and other automobile manufacturers also use carbon fiber composite materials to reduce the weight of the car body, which is different from the original Compared with the steel plate, it can reduce the weight of the vehicle body by 40%-70%, and greatly reduce the fuel consumption of the vehicle. In addition to these, carbon fiber composite materials, as lightweight and high-strength materials, can also be used on high-strength load-bearing structural parts, such as shock-absorbing spring sheets.

Compared with metal materials, the use of carbon fiber composite materials can save the resource consumption of complex metal molds, stamping, welding and spraying, and use carbon fiber composite materials instead of metal craft body, which greatly reduces the cost and reflects the advantages of carbon fiber composite materials. Economic characteristics to improve the development process of environmentally friendly vehicles.
