In recent years, the global manufacturing industry has accelerated its transformation toward high-end production. Leveraging nearly three decades of expertise in aluminum processing, Mingtai Aluminum has steadfastly enhanced product value through technological innovation, rapidly fostering new growth drivers centered on innovation, sustainability, intelligence, and openness. In response to emerging demands in fields such as robotics and low-altitude economy, the company has introduced new products like all-aluminum robotic arm components (columns, upper arms, and forearms) and drone shielding covers, which are gradually entering the market.
Mingtai Aluminum’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Hongsheng New Materials, is currently constructing the “Automotive and Green Energy Aluminum Industrial Park Project.” The project will invest in high-end equipment such as air-cushion furnaces, roller-hearth furnaces, and chemical surface treatment lines for aluminum sheet and strip production. By achieving technological breakthroughs to build core competitiveness and strategically positioning itself in future-oriented sectors, the company aims to actively create a second growth curve.
The air-cushion furnace utilizes gas suspension technology to prevent direct contact between materials and the furnace, significantly improving the surface finish of aluminum sheets, strips, and foils. By precisely controlling heating rates, dwell times, and cooling curves, it enables grain refinement, internal stress elimination, and optimization of material strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance—while supporting large-scale continuous production.
The roller-hearth furnace employs roller-conveyor transmission for continuous heat treatment, featuring precise temperature control and dual-chamber vacuum annealing to effectively prevent high-temperature oxidation. It meets the requirements for annealing, solution treatment, and mass production of medium-thick aluminum plates across various alloys.
The chemical surface treatment line plays a critical role in enhancing aluminum surface properties through chemical processes. A three-stage cleaning procedure thoroughly removes natural oxide films, while anodic oxidation generates a controllable-thickness porous oxide layer, significantly improving corrosion and wear resistance. This provides a clean substrate for subsequent coating or welding, meeting the stringent demands of automotive exterior panels and precision components for robotics and drones.
At this pivotal moment in the development of new-quality productive forces, Hongsheng New Materials’ “Automotive and Green Energy Aluminum Industrial Park Project” will establish a benchmark for advanced manufacturing. By focusing on market demands in robotics, low-altitude economy, aerospace, military, new energy, and automotive exterior panels, the project will foster an ecosystem for emerging industries, expand high-end product lines, and accelerate Mingtai Aluminum’s transition into a premium, green, digital, intelligent, lean, international, and service-oriented global leader in green aluminum processing.
