Magnesium alloys are well-known for being the lightest structural alloys [1].

They are made of magnesium, the lightest structural metal, mixed with other metal elements to improve the physical properties. These elements include manganese, aluminium, zinc, silicon, copper, zirconium, and rare-earth metals [2].

Some of magnesium’s favourable properties include low specific gravity and a high strength-to-weight ratio. As a result, the material lends itself to a range of automotive, aerospace, industrial, electronic, biomedical, and commercial applications

Properties and advantages Applications

Magnesium alloys cover a wide array of applications, from automotive and aerospace applications to electronic and biomedical uses.

Structural applications Automotive, aerospace, industrial, and commercial applications are examples of structural applications. The advantage of magnesium alloys to be used in such applications is their light weight, high strength-to-weight ratio, high stiffness-to-weight ratio, castability, machinability, and great damping [4].

Automotive: support brackets for brakes and clutch, housing for transmission

Aerospace: landing wheels, helicopter rotor fittings, gearbox housings

Industrial: high-speed operating machinery, such as textile machines

Commercial: luggage, hand tools, computer housings, ladders

Electronic applications Electronic applications include electronic packaging, hard drive arms, cell phone and portable media device housings. Magnesium alloys are being used instead of plastics due to their light weight, strength and durability. They also are relatively better for heat dissipation and protection against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference [5].

Medical applications Portable medical equipment and wheelchairs that require light material make good use of magnesium alloys. Also, cardiovascular stents and orthopaedic devices are potential applications of some magnesium alloys due to magnesium’s biocompatibility and bioabsorbability [4].

From Concept to Reality: The Importance of Prototype Manufacturing
The world we live in today is driven by innovation and technological advancement. The process of designing and manufacturing new products, however, is not always a straightforward one. It can be a complex and costly process, especially when creating a new product from scratch. This is where prototype manufacturing comes into play. Prototype manufacturing is the process of creating a preliminary model or sample of a product before it is mass-produced. Prototyping enables manufacturers to test and refine their designs before committing to mass production. It allows designers to evaluate a product’s function, form, and usefulness before investing significant...

Zhongmei thixomolding technology product application
thixomolding of magnesium alloy is considered as an advanced magnesium alloy processing technology in developed countries such as Europe, America, Japan and Taiwan. Its production of thin wall parts can reach the minimum wall thickness of 30-50mm, widely used in automobiles and 3C, UAV and other precision parts. In the United States alone, large thixomolding casting technology factories can produce tens of millions of levels of auto parts every year, with the weight of each casting as small as 10g and as large as 10kg, and the diameter of the largest can reach half a centimeter. In the early 1970s,...
