Where Are Aluminum Forgings Transforming Industries?

Aluminum forgings are the unsung heroes behind countless industries, delivering strength and precision where it matters most. At Southwest Aluminium (Kunshan) Co., Ltd, we’ve supplied forgings like 7075 rings since 2012, powering diverse applications. Where do these components shine?

Aerospace leads the pack—7075 forgings form landing gear and turbine discs, offering 570 MPa strength while cutting weight for fuel efficiency. Automotive applications include suspension systems and EV battery frames, where lightweight forgings boost range. Our 10,000-ton forging lines produce ASTM B247-compliant parts for these high-stakes uses.

Military applications demand durability; forged aluminum withstands extreme conditions in missile casings or armored vehicle parts. Construction benefits too—forged beams support skyscrapers with corrosion-resistant strength. Electronics and robotics are emerging fields, with forgings enabling compact, durable drone frames or heat-resistant circuit mounts.

Southwest Aluminium’s 70,000-ton capacity ensures distributors in the Middle East and EU have steady supply, while machining factories rely on our ISO 9001 quality and BV certifications. With 24-hour quotes, we meet custom needs, from wind turbine hubs to medical device components, proving aluminum forgings are versatile drivers of innovation.
