Jiaxin New Materials carries out trial production of its 7-series high-end aluminium alloy ingot

Jiaxin New Materials Company has conducted a trial production of its new 7-series high-end aluminium alloy round ingot product. The development of this much-awaited product marks a significant milestone for the China-based company.

The newly developed product is a high-strength aluminium alloy with zinc as its primary alloying element. It exhibits excellent plasticity following solution treatment, allowing it to serve as a steel substitute in high-temperature environments.

In addition to being lightweight, this alloy offers superior corrosion resistance and weldability, making it ideal for aerospace, mould manufacturing, mechanical equipment, and various other applications. To achieve the successful development of this new product, the company mobilized its management and technical teams to carry out comprehensive project demonstrations, optimize process designs, and develop a detailed trial production plan.

The entire process was meticulously tracked, covering material selection, batching, smelting, purification, casting, and homogenization. By refining batching techniques and adjusting casting parameters, the issue of crack tendency in the new product was effectively resolved. This accomplishment served as an achievement in producing 7-series high-end aluminium alloy products, providing valuable experience for future product development and boosting the company's market competitiveness.
