I-Paris, Juni 25, 2020 - I-Constellium SE (NYSE: CSTM) namuhla imemezele ukuthi izohola inhlanganisela yabakhiqizi bezimoto nabahlinzeki bempahla ukuze kuthuthukiswe izindawo zokuvala amabhethri e-aluminium ezimotweni zikagesi. Iphrojekthi ka-£15 million ALIVE (Aluminium Intensive Vehicle Enclosures) izothuthukiswa e-UK futhi ixhaswe ngokwengxenye ngoxhaso oluvela ku-Advanced Propulsion Center (APC) njengengxenye yohlelo lwayo lokucwaninga ngokukhishwa kwekhabhoni ephansi.
"I-Constellium iyakuthokozela ukusebenzisana ne-APC, kanye nabakhi bezimoto nabahlinzeki bempahla e-UK ukuklama, unjiniyela kanye nokufanekisa indawo entsha ngokuphelele yebhethri ye-aluminium," kusho uPaul Warton, uMongameli weyunithi yebhizinisi le-Constellium's Automotive Structures & Industry. “Sisebenzisa ama-alloys anamandla aphezulu e-HSA6 e-Constellium kanye nemiqondo emisha yokukhiqiza, silindele ukuthi lezi zindawo ezivalekile zamabhethri zinikeze abakhiqizi bezimoto inkululeko engenakuqhathaniswa yokuklama kanye ne-modularity yokwandisa izindleko njengoba beshintshela ekufakeni ugesi emotweni.”
Ngenxa yamaseli okukhiqiza ashesha, uhlelo olusha lokukhiqiza indawo evalekile yebhethri luzoklanywa ukuthi luvumelane noshintsho lwamavolumu okukhiqiza, lunikeze ukuqina njengoba amavolumu akhula. Njengomhlinzeki oholayo wazo zombili izixazululo ze-aluminium ezigoqiwe nezikhishiwe emakethe yezimoto yomhlaba wonke, i-Constellium iyakwazi ukuklama nokukhiqiza izindawo ezivalekile zamabhethri ezinikeza amandla, ukumelana nokuphahlazeka nokonga kwesisindo esidingekayo engxenyeni yesakhiwo. Ama-alloys ayo e-HSA6 alula ngo-20% kunama-alloys avamile futhi angaphinda asebenziseke kabusha.
IConstellium izoklama futhi ikhiqize ama-aluminium extrusions alo msebenzi e-University Technology Center (UTC) eBrunel University London. I-UTC yavulwa ngo-2016 njengesikhungo esizinikele sokusebenza kahle sokuthuthukisa nokuhlola ama-aluminium extrusions kanye nezingxenye ze-prototype esikalini.
Kuzokwakhiwa isikhungo esisha sokufaka izicelo e-UK se-Constellium kanye nozakwethu ukuze banikeze ama-prototypes aphelele kubakhiqizi bezimoto, kanye nokucwenga izindlela zokukhiqiza zokukhiqiza okuthuthukile. Iphrojekthi ye-ALIVE ihlelelwe ukuqala ngoJulayi futhi kulindeleke ukuthi yethule ama-prototypes ayo okuqala ekupheleni kuka-2021.
