It reduces internal defects and improves mechanical properties.
Although magnesium alloys are lightweight, they have issues with material strength, and their processing technology is difficult and costly, which has traditionally limited their applications. However, with the new development of forged magnesium alloys and the establishment of their manufacturing technology, it has become possible to produce low-cost, high-strength forged magnesium alloy products. The manufacturing methods for magnesium products can be broadly divided into casting and forging. However, cast products have low material strength and are inevitably subject to casting defects, which means they must be made thicker as structural components. This situation does not fully utilize the lightweight effect of "magnesium = light." By forging magnesium alloys, internal defects can be reduced, leading to improved mechanical properties.
