The more beautiful the aluminum wheels are, the thinner the spokes are, and the more mysterious the technology is. In the market, high-end cars are generally equipped with novel patterns, and the spokes are simple and delicate, which is very dazzling. Is this the trend? Trend and fashion are pushing the spokes of aluminum alloy wheels to become thinner and more mysterious. What kind of technology ...
When the vehicle is driving on a daily basis, the tires and wheels cannot avoid being bumped. Since most of the wheel rims are made of aluminum alloy, if the vehicle is driving at a high speed, the wheel rim may be damaged by the stones on the road, resulting in a small piece of the wheel rim being dented. The material of aluminum alloy is relatively brittle, and the recessed position ma...
Cars have become a very important part of our life. Nowadays, cars have moved away from being just a mode of transportation, and gained major significance in our lives. So, it doesn't come as a surprise that many people like to decorate their cars with the many car accessories available in the market. These different car accessories make your car more attractive and stylish. There are many accesso...
Aluminum alloy material is not only lighter than iron, but also harder than iron, so it is perfect for wheel rims. But aluminum alloy is metal after all. High school physics knowledge tells us that metal has ductility, so aluminum alloy wheels will also be out of round. In addition, the high hardness of aluminum alloy makes it difficult to repair by hammering, so it can only be repaired by turning...
The metal forming processes of aluminum-alloy wheel forging at elevated temperatures are analyzed by the finite element method. A coupled thermo-mechanical model for the analysis of plastic deformation and heat transfer is adapted in the finite element formulation. In order to consider the strain-rate effects on material properties and the flow stress dependence on temperatures, the rigid visco-pl...
In the wheel industry, there are two main types of wheels: 3 piece forged andcasting. There are many advantages to each type as well as disadvantages. The main difference betweenthem is the manufacturing processes used to create them. In the forging process, 3 piece wheels begin as high-quality T6-6061 aluminum alloy billets. The billets are then subjected to intense pressure to form the...
Keeping your vehicle takes time, money and patience; however it is completely worth it in the end. There are so many different parts of your vehicle to clean, car for and protect. One part of your vehicle that is very important to care for is your vehicles wheel rims. If your wheel rims are not in good condition not only do they not look good but can be very expensive to replace. Find out ways tha...
Alloy Wheels perform the same function in automobiles as the normal steel ones but they have certain added features that make them different and arguably better. Compared to wheels made of steel, alloy wheels are composed of aluminum or magnesium alloys making them stronger and durable, lighter in weight, better in performance and most importantly, stylish. These wheels are manufactured either by ...
In many unexpected times, there will be unexpected situations in the finishedrim, which will make the finished defective. At this time, we need to repair the wheels. Most of the wheels on the market are electroplated, so the maintenance of thechromed wheels and the precautions for the maintenance of the wheels are easy to share for you. When repairing arim, the first thing to do is to determi...
Many people think that as long as the wheel hub is bigger, it must be better, after all, it is certain to look good. But there are often disadvantages. The disadvantages will be discussed in a while, let’s talk about how to choose the hub and what craft to choose. At present, there are three mainstream process hubs on the market, low pressure casting, flow forming wheel and forged wheel. This is m...
1. Durable and safer Forged aluminum rings are 1-2 times stronger than cast aluminum rings and 4-5 times stronger than general iron rings, so they are stronger, have better toughness and fatigue resistance, and are safer. 2. Lightweight Forged wheels of the same size can be about 20% lighter in weight, and 1KG lighter on the wheel can increase 10 horsepower. In addition, the lightweight also signi...
An alloy wheel is an automobile wheel that is made of alloys of aluminum or magnesium. Getting a good run via cars and motorcycles, this segment has seen a sudden spurt in demand in the recent years. As magnesium was used earlier for making an alloy wheel, these wheels were often termed as mag wheels (MAG for magnesium). As compared to traditional steel wheels, This type wheel has the advantage of...
1. Heat dissipation requirements: If the car runs for a long time, it will make the car wheel very hot. What’s more, the braking system will also generate a lot of heat. If this heat is not released in time, it will bring a big problem to the driving safety of the car and may cause the tire to burst. The hollow design can increase the contact area between therim spokes and the air, which...
1. Select a suitable cleaning agent. Household cleaners and common detergents on the market are more alkaline or acidic and more corrosive to the wheel surface. To avoid contact with strong chemicals, choose neutral soapy water to wash your wheels. 2. Do not wash the wheels when the temperature is too high. When the temperature of the wheel rim is high, please do not directly wash it with col...
The rim et value means the offset value, which represents the deviation distance between the rim mounting surface and the center line of the rim. The wheel rim et value can be divided into positive and negative offset distance and zero offset distance. When the wheel rim et value is larger in the positive direction, it means that therim mounting surface is inward. The dist...
