Abstract
In this paper we studied possible problems and perspectives of deployment of aluminum-based composite alloys in automotive industry.
Aluminum-based composite alloys thanks to their high elastic strength combined with a relatively low mass density, good casting and tribological properties with respect to conventional alloys were implemented in automotive industry over 20 years ago already.
These alloys successfully substitute steel, cast iron and titanium alloys in engine, suspension, braking units. However high final cost of auto-components made of strengthened aluminum alloys limits its applications in the industry.
In this work we presented the examples of aluminum-based composite alloy technology that reduces the production costs of final product.
