Light, Strong, Forged

How do you create a component that's feather-light yet virtually indestructible?

The brief was crystal clear: An e-bike motor manufacturer needed a component for battery housings that would be both feather-light and robust enough to withstand the highest stresses. Nearly a year later, the solution emerged – an aluminum drop forged part that perfectly satisfied both requirements.

Why aluminum drop forged parts are the perfect choice

Aluminum drop forged parts are tailor-made for such challenges. When weight and strength are equally critical – as they are in the e-bike industry – these components truly shine. Drop forging creates a homogeneous, pore-free microstructure that makes parts exceptionally resilient while optimizing weight.
