Due to the trend of automotive lightweighting and the focus on topics such as "plastic instead of steel," JZT, known for its precision plastic gears and other precision injection molding parts, has garnered attention in the market. Their main products, including automotive precision plastic gears and other precision injection molding parts, are well-regarded in China. One of their notable products is the high-strength automotive wiper system precision injection molded gear. It utilizes a new type of plastic with lower density and undergoes special structural treatment, resulting in gears that are not only lightweight and high-precision but also have a longer lifespan and higher strength. These high-precision gears are crucial components of the automotive transmission system, typically found in the wiper system under the car's bonnet. Through continuous research and development along with technological innovation, JZT has developed a range of high-quality, high-performance lightweight parts. This includes precision injection-molded gears and high-strength engineering plastics for accelerator parts, all of which meet the demands of well-known automobile brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, and GM. Additionally, their products are used in new energy vehicles like Tesla, BYD, RISO, Azure, and Xiaopeng, showcasing their versatility and relevance in the evolving automotive industry. #Lightweight #LightweightAsia2024 #automotivelightweight To learn more about the market trends, stay tuned to Lightweight Asia 2024 Date: 03-05 July 2024 Venue: Shanghai New International Expo Center  Learn more：https://lnkd.in/gid2RGSb

I couldn’t fail to mention that today is National Manufacturing Day  🏭 This industry closely intersects with the automotive sector. I think that it’s even foundational to the automotive domain, crafting the tools and equipment essential for the development of trendy, reliable, eco-friendly, and tech-driven vehicles we all enjoy so much 🚗  The thing that tightly unites the two industries is that they’re not only about hefty equipment and machinery but have software solutions at the heart of their operations. Visiting major exhibitions like Automechanika Frankfurt and IAA TRANSPORTATION were the best conformation of this. I’m eager to see where our industries will be going in 2025!💡🔧 #NationalManufacturingDay #ManufacturingIndustry #ManufacturingInnovation #SmartManufacturing #Industry4_0

The automotive industry is currently facing unprecedented changes not seen in a century. Auto parts companies should adapt to global political and economic changes, and the demand for technological advancements, by planning for the transformation and upgrading of their enterprises. At the same time, auto parts companies should also implement a series of management changes to support their successful transformation. In recent years, new energy vehicles have seen rapid development globally, with especially swift progress in China. T car factory, representing new forces, advocates for the "3C" approach in automotive development, focusing on low cost and fast response, which has become one of the trends in the auto parts industry. The global auto parts supply system is expected to be reshaped. The demand for automotive intelligence is increasing. Due to the automotive market's requirements for high-tech applications, cars will increasingly lean towards intelligent applications such as car networking, front-end entertainment modules, and intelligent driving. These intelligent features will impose higher technical requirements on parts and components manufacturers. The lightweighting of parts and components is also on the rise. Due to ongoing concerns about environmental issues, the parts industry will focus on reducing car body weight through the modular application of new materials. Lightweight, clean, and environmentally friendly technology will become the future direction of industrial development. The industry chain's direction will diversify. The components industry chain will lengthen, starting from more subdivided first-class components and gradually focusing on body parts, doors, seats, audio systems, and other local areas. A comprehensive supplier resource model must be developed to adapt to future market development trends. #Lightweight #LightweightAsia2024 #automotivemarket To learn more about the market trends, stay tuned to Lightweight Asia 2024 Date: 03-05 July 2024 Venue: Shanghai New International Expo Center  Learn more：https://lnkd.in/gid2RGSb

Rethink some things, indeed… mainly energy policy and especially nuclear and renewables policies. Those policies will result in enormous costs and cause de-industrialisation of Germany. Highest energy costs (and unclean) in the world are no place for industrial growth and retaining German industry. Germany is indeed the shining example of worst possible energy policy and serves as a great benchmark — in that reasonably good energy policy must be the opposite of German energy policy.

In today's automotive manufacturing industry, lightweighting has become a key goal. Lightweighting helps improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and enhance vehicle performance. Carbon fiber composites, as a lightweight material, are gradually becoming one of the primary choices in the automotive manufacturing industry, especially in the application of car hoods. Traditional car hoods are typically made of steel, which is relatively heavy and adversely affects fuel efficiency. In contrast, carbon fiber composites offer outstanding strength and lightweight properties, making them a superior choice. By manufacturing hoods with carbon fiber composites, automakers can significantly reduce the overall weight of vehicles, thereby improving fuel economy. Moreover, carbon fiber composites exhibit excellent corrosion resistance and fatigue performance, making car hoods more durable and able to maintain good condition for longer periods. This means that vehicle owners can perform less maintenance and replacements, thus saving on repair costs. However, the manufacturing cost of carbon fiber composites is relatively high, which may affect the final car price. Nevertheless, as technology continues to advance, the cost of producing carbon fiber composites has been gradually decreasing, enabling more car manufacturers to incorporate this advanced material into their models. #Lightweight #LightweightAsia2024 #fuelefficiency To learn more about the market trends, stay tuned to Lightweight Asia 2024 Date: 03-05 July 2024 Venue: Shanghai New International Expo Center  Learn more：https://lnkd.in/gid2RGSb
