Magnesium alloy pressed products
To realize a low-carbon society, it is essential to use magnesium alloys, which are the lightest and have the highest specific strength among all practical metals. In order to be widely used, it is necessary to create complex three-dimensional shapes using a press machine with high mass production capabilities.
The AZ61 manufactured by our company is high-strength and has good surface treatment properties, including the ability to be plated, and also has good hot workability.
Excellent features of press-molded products made from magnesium alloy AZ61
Deep drawing equivalent to AZ31 is possible
Good surface treatment properties, allowing plating and painting
The LDR value of AZ61 is 2.0 or more at 250°C or more.
