Aluminum alloy has been the widest material used in gearbox housing. it has many advantages, such as easily machining, strong, high light-to-weight ratio, aesthetic, durability, as well as recycle characteristic. Those features make it to be an idea option for gearbox housing material. Dongrun have specialized in aluminum casting processing for gearbox housing for lots of years.
What you need to know is the benefits of aluminum sand casting for the truck industry. Our innovative process provides the highest levels of precision, reliability and flexibility when producing complex components up to 1.2 x 1.8 meters in size.
Sand casting plays a vital role in all areas of truck engineering due to its cost-effectiveness and versatility in manufacturing aluminum components. Aluminum sand casting impresses with its design flexibility, material versatility and cost-effective tool manufacturing – perfect for gearboxes, engine blocks, oil pans and various lines, such as charge air lines and coolers.
Aluminum castings are particularly beneficial for truck transmission housings due to their applications:
Structural integrity: Aluminum castings are capable of fulfilling the rigorous mechanical demands of truck transmission housings, enabling them to endure the substantial stresses and vibrations encountered during operation.
Cooling efficiency: Aluminum’s excellent thermal conductivity aids in efficiently cooling transmission components, minimizing thermal expansion and wear, and thereby enhancing the overall longevity of the transmission system.
Design adaptability: Aluminum castings can be molded into elaborate shapes and configurations, allowing designers to optimize the weight, strength, and aerodynamic characteristics of the transmission housing.
Corrosion durability: Aluminum inherently resists corrosion, preserving the transmission housing from environmental degradation and ensuring its structural stability and operational reliability over the vehicle’s entire lifetime.
Sand casting technique facilitates the creation of lightweight, robust, and intricate components that are vital for contemporary automotive applications. At GLL, we supply global manufacturers with sand cast components for vehicle manufacturing, such as gearboxes, engine blocks, oil pans and various lines, such as charge air lines.
To ensure the quality of all our products from the outset, we use state-of-the-art simulation technology to develop your truck parts. This allows us to identify potential problems and make design corrections before production.
Sand casting is an essential process in the truck industry due to its versatility, precision and cost-effectiveness. It is able to produce lightweight, strong and complex components that are essential for modern vehicles.
