West Aluminum - West Aluminum Industry Telecom: Recently, 100 new domestic Geely English TX5 taxis equipped with "Made in Southwest Aluminum" have been officially put into operation in Dalian, focusing on the taxi and special vehicle market. This is a typical effect of Southwest Aluminum (Group) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Southwest Aluminum) in focusing on the market and on-site demand and accelerating the industrial application and promotion of major technical achievements.

The new lightweight aluminum alloy structure is a highlight of this model. The total aluminum consumption of this model is about 400kg, mainly involving body connecting parts, structural parts, body interior trim and some structures, four doors, hood inner plate and hood outer plate. Its all aluminum body is mainly developed by Chinalco Group, and the aluminization rate of the body reaches 97%. High quality aluminum structure makes this model meet the world's most stringent vehicle safety requirements while reducing weight by 30%.

In 2016, Chinalco set up a Geely project team, which entrusted the important task of R&D and mass production to Southwest Aluminum. SWA and Chinalco Materials Institute have organized a lean and efficient team, which has invested in intensive research and development and production. From 2016 to 2017, the overall work of the project was basically completed. In 2020, the Geely project has achieved mass production and supply. So far, Southwest Aluminum has provided more than 1000 tons of aluminum materials for this model, mainly for four doors and one cover, body connectors, structural parts, etc.

As early as 2010, SWA began to develop automotive materials, and is one of the earliest aluminum processing enterprises in China. In recent years, SWA has built a production line for automobile panels. Through continuous research on the material development and application technology of automobile aluminum panels, it has mastered the basic theories and methods for the organization and performance of aluminum panels for automobile panels and the control of surface quality, and has formed the industrialization process of several series of alloy automobile panels. The product performance has reached the level of foreign advanced aluminum processing enterprises, forming an annual production capacity of 100000 tons of automobile panels.

At present, SWAL has cooperated with more than 10 OEMs, including SAIC General Motors, Weilai Automobile, Geely Automobile and internationally renowned new energy vehicles, to achieve the bulk supply of body panels. At the same time, Southwest Aluminum also listed the quantitative production of aluminum for automobile projects as one of the major projects under the leadership of the company leaders, with a view to further promoting the industrialization process of aluminum for automobile and driving the continuous development of high-quality enterprises with scientific and technological innovation.
