Aluminum Alloy Intermediate Shaft

Aluminum alloy intermediate shaft is a key component in the automobile transmission system. It is mainly used in the field of commercial vehicles. Its design goal is to achieve lightweight of the whole vehicle under the premise of ensuring transmission efficiency and structural strength. The problem of high fuel consumption caused by the heavy weight and high centrifugal force of high-speed rotation of traditional steel drive shafts is becoming increasingly prominent. Through material innovation and structural optimization, the aluminum alloy intermediate shaft can reduce weight by more than 30%, effectively reduce the fuel consumption of the whole vehicle by 3%-5%, and improve power response speed and driving smoothness.
Advantages:
1. Significant lightweight effect: 30%-50% weight reduction compared to steel drive shaft.
2. Reduced energy consumption: 3%-5% reduction in fuel consumption of the whole vehicle,
3. Improved power response: reduced moment of inertia, more direct power transmission
4. Good corrosion resistance: an oxide film is formed on the surface of aluminum alloy, and the salt spray resistance is better than that of steel parts
