Project Background
One of the world's leading automotive brands partnered with Yuhui Die Casting to produce high-performance aluminum alloy components for steering valves. The project required precision-manufactured parts that could withstand the high-intensity demands of modern automotive steering systems. These components needed to be lightweight while offering exceptional durability to meet the brand's strict standards for safety, reliability, and fuel efficiency.
Project Overview:
Industry: Automotive
Material: Aluminum Alloy ADC12
Product: Automotive Steering Valve
Die Casting Equipment: 2000T
Surface Treatment: Sandblasting and UV coating
CNC Machining: 5-axis machining
Challenges Faced:
This project presented several key challenges:
● Complex Structural Requirements: The steering valve design required intricate internal and external geometries to ensure perfect compatibility with the vehicle's steering system.
● High Durability and Strength Demands: The part needed to maintain structural integrity under high pressure, airtight conditions, and frequent use.
● Strict Tolerances and Quality Standards: As a critical safety component, the steering valve required precise tolerances and adherence to the high-quality standards of the automotive industry. CNC machining needed to achieve an accuracy of 0.01-0.03mm for bearing positions and verticality.
Our Solutions and Services:
To meet these demands, Yuhui Die Casting provided a customized, comprehensive solution:
● Advanced Mold Design: Using cutting-edge CAE software, we designed and tested molds to ensure the required precision geometries while minimizing areas of material stress concentration.
● High-Precision Die Casting Process: With our 2000T high-pressure die-casting equipment and 10-bar pressure tests for air-tightness, we produced aluminum alloy components that met stringent tolerance requirements, ensuring structural integrity and perfect fitment.
● Rigorous Quality Control: Under the ISO 9001:2015 and IATF 16949 certification systems, we implemented multi-stage quality inspections, including X-ray checks, strength testing, and 160-hour neutral delay testing to ensure that every batch of parts met the durability and safety standards of our client.
Results and Client Feedback:
With the support of Yuhui Die Casting, the automotive brand successfully integrated our aluminum steering valve components into its production line, enhancing the overall performance and fuel efficiency of its vehicles. The production cycle was shortened, and the yield rate was increased, helping the client maintain its high standards. The client highly appreciated our proactive solutions and precise quality control, choosing Yuhui Die Casting for continued production of future components.
Conclusion:
This collaboration further highlights Yuhui Die Casting's ability to deliver high-quality, precision die-casting solutions to the automotive industry. Our commitment to precision, durability, and customer satisfaction enables us to support industry-leading brands in their success while continuously enhancing our technical capabilities in the die-casting field.
