Tianjin Lizhong Light Alloy Forging Co., Ltd., founded on February 21, 2008, now has a registered capital of 210 million yuan and 150 employees. It is a new business module of intelligent manufacturing under Lizhong Group and a national high-tech enterprise.
The company has“ Leading figure in China's aluminum alloy wheel industry” One person, one doctor, two masters, 35 people with bachelor's degrees. The company has inherited the excellent tradition of Lizhong Group's emphasis on scientific research, high starting point, high goal, and high-end manufacturing, and has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the development of new products, new technologies, new materials, etc. The company was awarded Tianjin Enterprise Technology Center in 2018.
In 2012, the company began to develop the process of liquid die forging aluminum alloy wheels, and applied the liquid die forging technology to the production of aluminum alloy wheels for heavy-duty trucks and buses, filling the domestic gap. The company, together with Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Hebei University of Technology and other famous domestic universities, has developed a new type of high-strength aluminum alloy suitable for liquid die forging. It has successively won two international advanced achievements appraisal, one first prize for scientific and technological progress in Binhai New Area and one second prize for scientific and technological progress in Tianjin.
The company cooperates with the General Institute of Mechanical Science to establish a new high-end mold academician workstation. The enterprise undertakes the National Technological Innovation Project for Small and Medium sized Enterprises RX8 New Material Low Pressure Wheel Mold Research and Development, the international cooperation project Sino Russian Cooperative Joint Development of Aluminum Alloy Wheel Liquid Die Forging Equipment and Process, and the national“ 863 Project” Research and development of projects such as High Strength and High Toughness Cast Aluminum Magnesium Alloy and Its Application in Large and Complex Structural Parts. Presided over the formulation of one national standard, and undertook two national projects such as the new mode of intelligent manufacturing application of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the standardization of intelligent manufacturing.
In December 2021, Tianjin Lizhong Light Alloy Forging Co., Ltd. incorporated Tianjin Lizhong Forging Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Lizhong Wheel Group, and formed two mature wheel production processes: solid forging and liquid die forging, covering the comprehensive product development and design capabilities of commercial vehicle development, passenger vehicle development, military products, and non wheel parts development, further improving the product structure of Lizhong Wheel Group;
At present, the company has a forging production line with global leading technology and process, which can be forged by continuously pressurizing 6000T, 8000T and 10000T, and is equipped with water immersion ultrasonic testing line, high-speed sawing machine, walking heating furnace/heat treatment furnace, powerful spinning machine, CNC processing equipment, etc. to meet the production of various aluminum alloy forgings, with a total capacity of 450000 pieces/year and a total capacity of 150000 pieces/year for liquid forging, The flexible production line can flexibly meet the needs of different customers, produce trucks, buses, and advanced passenger cars, and achieve the product requirements of different shapes through continuous molding technology.
Lizhong Group has its own raw material R&D and manufacturing capacity, and uses 6061 aluminum alloy bars and A356.2 aluminum alloy to ensure the excellent quality of raw materials. The company has passed the ISO/TS16949 quality system certification; The products meet the requirements of GB/T5909-2009, KS of South Korea, JWL-T of Japan, EUMA of Europe, TUV, SAE-J 267-2007 of the United States, international ISO3894-2005 and other standards.
Relying on the resource advantages of Lizhong Wheel Group, the company actively develops the domestic commercial vehicle and passenger vehicle markets and overseas customers. Now, the company has become a high-quality supplier of BMW, Chrysler, Maserati, GM, Hongqi, Hyundai Commercial Vehicle, Jirui United Heavy Truck, Beiben Heavy Truck, Shandong Wuzheng, Chengdu Dayun, Shaanxi Automobile Commercial Vehicle, Jinan Special Vehicle, Tai'an Aerospace, Sanjiang Walit, etc.
