Regardless of material, process or structural design, automakers urgently need a practical vehicle lightweight solution that takes into consideration factors such as the operation of the company, resource utilization and cost control. Thanks to the accumulation of years of experience with Reed Exhibitions. And in-depth research on the market, the '2018 Asia Automotive Lightweight Exhibition' came into being. This exhibition will be integrated with the host plant, raw materials and processing suppliers, key suppliers of parts and components, around the vehicle weight on new energy The impact of the vehicle's cruising range, together explore new ideas for the lightweight development of new energy vehicles.
Policy plus new energy boosts the development of new energy automotive industry
From “Made in China 2025” to “Dual Incentive Policy”, from the implementation of the new vehicle purchase tax policy for new energy vehicles to the release of the power battery recycling and reuse program, it can be said that the new energy vehicle has become a strategic emerging industry that the country currently supports. It is also the only way for China to move from a big automobile country to a powerful automobile country. The country’s investment in research and development of basic technologies for new energy vehicles has also continued to increase, and it has been a guarantee for the development of new energy automobile industry.
New energy strategy for car companies to deploy
In the face of the vast market space for new energy vehicles, traditional car companies have laid out new energy strategies one after another, competition has become increasingly fierce, and lightweight technology will be the 'nuclear weapon' in the new energy vehicle market. Aluminum alloy body, high strength steel chassis, battery packs, The application of new materials such as plastic coverings, carbon fiber components, modularized structure design, and dissimilar materials joining processes will become new demands in the new energy market.
The aluminum body becomes an important selling point: The weight reduction of the car body has always been the focus of the industry, and the new energy all-aluminum body design with its perfect combination of light weight and safety will push the body aluminum to a climax. The Chery eQ1 (small ant) aluminum body achieves a weight loss of 60kg. The Weilai ES8 all-aluminum body and 7-series aluminum alloy are the pioneers in the technology of aluminum used in bodywork. At present, the aluminum body has become a major selling point for new energy vehicles. The 2018 Asian Automotive Lightweight Show will be well-known. “Aluminum Industry Windbreaker” is held in the same place at the same time as China International Aluminum Industry Exhibition. It digs deep into the needs of the automotive application industry and builds an integrated communication platform for vehicle manufacturers and suppliers of automotive aluminum alloys.
Plastic covers will be standard: At present, high-performance plastics and composite materials are increasingly favored by the automotive industry. The BAIC new energy model uses the SMC back door, SAIC E50 pure electric vehicle equipped with carbon fiber composite material front cover, rear door, fender, front protection collision beam In the future, plastic coverings may become the standard for new energy vehicles. It is reported that well-known automotive plastics companies such as Kangde Duplex, Huitong New Materials, Juexlon Engineering Plastics, Fujian Haiyuan, etc. will debut in Asia. Quantitative exhibition, they will bring new products for automotive plastic technology.
Car steel into the car 'high strength ' era: With the successful development of the 2.0GPa ultra-high strength steel at Tohoku University, domestic automobile steel has entered the “high-intensity” era. According to relevant personnel at the exhibition, well-known steel companies at home and abroad such as Baosteel, Pohang and SSAB will debut at the show. Brings the latest high-strength steel application technology to help build lightweight and safe vehicles.
The battery pack 'short board' is in urgent need of solution: The cruising range is currently the bottleneck of the development of new energy vehicle battery packs. In the case of battery technology is not yet perfect, the weight reduction of battery packs is particularly important. The lightweight design of high-performance plastic upper shell + aluminum alloy lower shell has attracted much attention in the industry. How to increase the energy density of pack battery packs, how to achieve the weight reduction and cost reduction at the same time? The 2018 Asian Automobile Lightweight Exhibition will reveal the answer for you.
Focus on the application requirements of the terminal Establish a lightweight field 'Windward'
With the increasingly fierce competition in the new energy vehicle market, light weight usher in new opportunities. On July 11-13, the Asian Automobile Lightweight Exhibition will be held at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. The exhibition will be held in conjunction with the 'Asia Automotive Lightweight Summit Forum'. Focusing on the policies, regulations, development trends, structural design, materials, and processing technology of new energy vehicle lightweighting, the government authorities, industry associations, research institutions, and domestic and foreign vehicle manufacturers and suppliers are invited to conduct a comprehensive interpretation.

Automobile new energy is the 'trend of the times', and the light weight market demand is urgent. The Asian Automobile Lightweight Exhibition closely follows the development trend of the industry, focuses on the terminal application, and builds a bridge for technical cooperation and exchange of light weight upstream and downstream vehicles.
