Application of magnesium in aviation and space
Are you interested in the use of magnesium in aviation and astronautics from the supplier company AvecGlob? Here you will find interesting information on this topic.
Benefits
The modern aerospace industry has recognized the clear advantages of magnesium alloys for weight reduction in aircraft fuselage designs, internal devices, frames and components of aircraft and helicopter engines. For these and other applications, both in commercial and military applications, high-temperature magnesium alloys are particularly in demand, which are both resistant to corrosion and ignition.
The weight advantage of magnesium over aluminum makes magnesium alloys an attractive alternative to aluminum, especially when higher fuel costs and increasingly stringent environmental requirements cause a reduction in the weight of manufactured products and a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions. In addition, strong lightweight magnesium components are cheaper than composite carbon-graphite components.
Operational characteristics
Multifunctional and high-performance magnesium alloys offer aviation component designers high-temperature characteristics and tightness with the ability to produce complex shapes by casting, machining, extrusion or forging.
These alloys allow engines and energy transmission systems to operate safely at higher temperatures without shifting the gears or the need to seal the components against leakage of lubricants.
Supplier — AvekGlob Company — offers magnesium alloys that can be used in the aerospace industry. Provides timely delivery of products to any address specified by the consumer.
Casting — the main technology for obtaining magnesium alloys in the aerospace industry
The aviation industry traditionally uses cast alloys of magnesium. This is due to the fact that they are light, and can work in conditions of increased load. Recently developed cast magnesium alloys have excellent anticorrosion characteristics.
In addition, magnesium alloys differ:
Light weight;
Low density;
Strength at high temperatures;
Sufficiently high corrosion resistance.
In helicopter building magnesium alloys are used in the manufacture of helicopter bodies, as well as for castings of the main and secondary rotor gearboxes,
generator housings, canopies, intermediate casings of turbochargers, etc. Magnesium alloys are also widely used for manufacturing auxiliary drive systems on civil and military aircraft.
Supplier — AvekGlob Company — offers to buy a large assortment of magnesium alloys, which can be used in the production of aircraft and various space technology. Products can be bought at a price formed on the basis of European and world standards of production. Implementation is possible in bulk and retail, for regular customers, a flexible system of discounts operates.
