Industrial application of AMMC.
Si.No | Industry | Applications | Reasons |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Automobile | Pistons, connecting rods, brake rotors, current collectors, A/C pump bracket, engine blocks, propeller shafts, brake disc |
higher damping, self-cleaning, self-healing capability, good corrosion and wear resistance, less noise |
2 | Aerospace and aircraft | Fuselage, wings and supporting structure in airlines, landing gear parts, vertical tails and brakes, military aircrafts | high strength to weight ratio, lower fuel consumption, lower thermal coefficient of expansion |
3 | Rail transport | railway cars | better fuel efficiency, higher load carrying capacities, Durability |
4 | Marine transport | high speeds to boats at higher fuel efficiency | reduced maintenance costs |
5 | Off-shore applications | offshore platforms and seawalls | greater strength, low cost |
6 | Building and construction | supporting structure in building materials | greater strength and stiffness |
7 | Packaging and Containerization | beverage bottles and cans, food containers, industrial foils | |
8 | Sports and recreation | sports goods | greater strength and lightweight |
9 | Electrical transmission | electrical transmission | Lightweight, higher corrosion resistance, high efficiency in conduction |
