Aviation-grade unmanned aerial vehicle hardware accessories series: Lightweight magnesium-aluminum alloy solutions


The Growing Market for Drone Accessories

Industry Trends in Drone Technology

Surge in Demand for Lightweight and Adaptive Materials

  1. According to the “2025 Global Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Industry Report,” over 60% of industrial-grade unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) failures are linked to hardware material defects. This is critical in extreme scenarios like agricultural plant protection (high humidity) and logistics transportation (high impact), where traditional stainless steel components fall short.

Maozhong Precision Technology Layout

Material Innovation

  • Aviation-Grade Alloy: Maozhong Precision has introduced aerograde AZ31B magnesium-aluminum alloy, which boasts a density of 2.7g/cm³ and a tensile strength of ≥310MPa, making it 60% lighter than traditional steel.

Certification Standards

  • Maozhong Precision has received ISO 9001 quality system certification and RoHS environmental protection certification, ensuring compatibility with popular UAV models including DJI Agras T40 and XAIRCRAFT P150.

Magnesium-Aluminum Alloy Drone Frame

High-Precision Manufacturing

  • The drone frames are produced using five-axis CNC machining, achieving an accuracy of ±0.01mm, and are compatible with the DJI Matrice 350 RTK quick-release interface.

Surface Treatment for Durability

  • The surface undergoes micro-arc oxidation treatment, yielding a hardness of ≥800HV and a salt spray test duration exceeding 96 hours, in accordance with ASTM B117 standards.

Real-World Application Scenarios

Case Study: Southeast Asian Logistics Company

  • A logistics company in Southeast Asia experienced a 65% reduction in aircraft body breakage rates and an increase of 1.8 hours in average daily battery life after adopting Maozhong Precision’s solutions.

TC4 Titanium Alloy Anti-Corrosion Fasteners

Technological Breakthroughs

  • Maozhong Precision’s anti-corrosion fasteners utilize a pre-coated low-temperature thread adhesive process to maintain adhesion at temperatures ranging from -50℃ to 150℃, effectively preventing loose screws during high-altitude operations.
  • These fasteners possess a tensile strength of ≥900MPa and weigh only 40% of traditional stainless steel options.
