CASE STUDIES
Electric Vehicle Battery Tray Prototype
Technical Specifications:
- Substrate: 6061-T6 aluminum, CNC machined to ±0.05mm
- Brackets: CarbonPA™ (50% short carbon fiber), layer thickness 80μm
- Connection: Laser welding + structural adhesive composite process
Verification Data:
Test Item | Standard Requirement | Measured Result |
---|---|---|
Bending Stiffness | >15kN·m/rad | 18.7kN·m/rad |
Salt Spray Test | 1000hrs | No corrosion (1500hrs) |
Thermal Cycling (-30~85°C) | 100 cycles | 200 cycles without deformation |
Failure Analysis:
The initial design's weld point fatigue life was only 50,000 cycles. After microstructural optimization, it was improved to 200,000 cycles.
