Abstract:The use of aluminum in chassis, bumper, and crash boxes has increased in the last 10 years with an increase in the production of electric vehicles in the automotive industry. The extrusion process has also gained importance because it allows mass production. While basic 6xxx series aluminum alloys such as 6060 and 6063 were used in the early stages of the process, later on, 6005A and 6082 alloys, which provide higher strength, have been used. Alloys with higher strength and crash ability are needed with an inc… Show more
