ALUMINUM ALLOYS FOR STRUCTURAL HIGH PRESSURE VACUUM DIE CASTING APPLICATIONS

A vehicle part formed at least in part of a blended material is provided. The blended material is formed by mixing an improved aluminum alloy and a recycled aluminum alloy. The recycled aluminum alloy can be obtained from road wheels. The blended alloy preferable meets the Aural series alloy specifications. The blended material can be cast under high pressure and a vacuum to form a part designed for use in a chassis or structural body of a vehicle, for example a front subframe, a front shock tower, a rear rail, a front kick-down rail, a front body hinge pillar, a tunnel, a front body hinge pillar, or a rear shock mount. 提供了至少部分地由混合材料形成的车辆部件。混合材料通过将改善铝合金与再利用铝合金混合来形成。再利用铝合金可以由车轮获得。混合合金优选满足Aural系列合金规格。可以在高压和真空下对混合材料进行铸造以形成设计用于车辆的底盘或结构车身的部件，例如前副车架、前减震塔、后纵梁、前降档纵梁、前车身铰链柱、通道、前车身铰链柱、或后减震架。
