EZOKUTHUTHA
I-Aluminium isetshenziswa kwezokuthutha ngenxa yamandla ayo angenakunqotshwa kuya kwesisindo.Isisindo sayo esilula sisho ukuthi kudingeka amandla amancane ukuze imoto ihambe, okuholela ekusebenzeni kahle kukaphethiloli.Nakuba i-aluminium ingeyona insimbi enamandla kakhulu, ukuyihlanganisa nezinye izinsimbi kuyasiza ekwandiseni amandla ayo.Ukumelana nokugqwala kwayo kuyibhonasi eyengeziwe, eqeda isidingo sezingubo zokulwa nokugqwala ezisindayo nezimba eqolo.
Nakuba imboni yezimoto isathembele kakhulu ensimbi, umfutho wokwandisa ukusebenza kahle kukaphethiloli nokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwe-CO2 kuholele ekusetshenzisweni okubanzi kwe-aluminium.Ochwepheshe babikezela ukuthi isilinganiso se-aluminium emotweni sizokhuphuka ngo-60% ngo-2025.
Amasistimu wesitimela esinesivinini esikhulu njenge-'CRH' kanye ne-Maglev e-Shanghai nawo asebenzisa i-aluminium.Insimbi ivumela abaklami ukuba banciphise isisindo sezitimela, banciphise ukumelana nokungqubuzana.
I-aluminium yaziwa nangokuthi 'insimbi enamaphiko' ngoba ilungele indiza;futhi, ngenxa yokukhanya, amandla nokuguquguquka.Eqinisweni, i-aluminium yayisetshenziswa kumafreyimu ezindiza ze-Zeppelin ngaphambi kokuba izindiza zisungulwe.Namuhla, izindiza zesimanje zisebenzisa ama-alloys e-aluminium kuyo yonke indawo, kusukela ku-fuselage kuya kumathuluzi e-cockpit.Ngisho nemikhumbi-mkhathi, njengemikhumbi-mkhathi, iqukethe u-50% kuya ku-90% wama-alloys e-aluminium ezingxenyeni zawo.
