Under the tide of the new generation of scientific and technological revolution, the automobile is gradually electrified, intelligent and shared, and the global automobile industry is entering a major change that has not been seen in a century. For the upstream and downstream industrial chain of the new energy automobile industry, a huge new opportunity for development has come.

What is a new energy vehicle? The official interpretation is that non-traditional vehicles with fuel as the driving force source mainly include: pure electric vehicles, oil electric hybrid vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles and hydrogen diesel engine vehicles. At present, new energy is at the stage of high-speed development. Although it encounters many problems such as rechargeable batteries and safety, with the reduction of petrochemical production, the aggravation of environmental pollution, and China's encouragement for the use of new energy (it is understood that Hainan Province has clearly proposed to ban the sale of fuel vehicles in the industrial ecosystem in 2030), new energy will be the inevitable trend of automobile development, but its development process will be a long way, It's not going to happen overnight.

With the development of technology, the manufacturers have continuously increased the mileage of vehicles, and the government has also increased the investment in infrastructure construction. The rechargeable batteries are treated by technology and recycled to improve the charging rate (high-speed roadside charging, fast charging, faster battery charging speed) and safety of the batteries, Improve the composition of rechargeable batteries (for example, lithium battery is now, and it may be changed to solar power generation or other fuels in the future), and new energy vehicles are expected to achieve high-quality and high-speed development.

Car sharing is a major trend of people's travel in the future. With the rise of new energy vehicle sales market, shared travel is the best place for new energy.

At this stage, the engineering cost of new energy vehicles is still high, and the implementation of vehicle sharing can reduce its operating cost. On the other hand, for customers, the travel cost of new energy vehicles is low, and the travel cost of new energy vehicles is less. Secondly, it is the best solution to share the endurance, battery cycle times and battery charging time that customers worry about today.

In addition to improving the battery life, it can also be solved by laying more charging piles. The charging pile industry chain is complete. From construction to operation, it involves charging equipment manufacturers, power supply, site supply and third-party charging platforms. The downstream of the charging pile involves industrial support, mainly including navigation function support and payment function support. Charging pile parts are mainly divided into four categories: power module, electrical accessories (including circuit breaker, plug, cable and contactor), touch screen, billing system and control panel. From the perspective of manufacturing difficulty of main components, the technical content of power modules is relatively high, and some small and medium-sized manufacturers need to purchase power modules.

By the end of 2019, the total number of charging piles in the country had reached 1.22 million, including 520000 public piles and 700000 private piles. The charging facilities have covered 404 cities in the country, and a charging network of "ten vertical, ten horizontal and two rings" has been formed. As the power guarantee of new energy vehicles, the construction of charging infrastructure is connected to the people's livelihood and the driving distance of new energy vehicles; One end is connected to the industry, which is related to how well the new energy automobile industry can go.

Most of the charging piles of new energy vehicles are erected outdoors. The materials used need to be corrosion-resistant, moisture-resistant, easy to process, low-cost, etc. in a comprehensive view, they are not stainless steel materials. In the production and processing of stainless steel, to achieve both high efficiency, high quality and low cost processing, the fiber laser cutting machine is the only one.

In the production of stainless steel charging pile shell, the following processing is involved: shell plate cutting, rain proof shed cutting, fan mounting plate cutting, cooling hole hollowing, outlet hole hollowing, air inlet hollowing, etc. Metal laser cutting machine is especially suitable for cutting and hollowing out of sheet metal. It has high speed, good quality, no cutting force and no deformation. It can quickly and accurately complete the processing of charging piles and vividly display the beauty of metal lines.

Specifically speaking, there are five major advantages of metal laser cutting machine:

1. High quality and low labor cost

Characterized by its non-contact processing, laser technology does not damage the work-piece with the products free of extrusion deformation and in good quality. And the processed products do not need to be polished manually, eliminating unnecessary processing procedures and optimizing the labor intensity of workers.

2. Reduced mold investment and production cost

By directly processing various work-pieces without mold, metal laser cutter can help to avoid mold consumption and the costs of repairing and changing molds. In this way, a large number of molds and their production costs can be saved, which is especially suitable for processing large products.

3. High precision and high efficiency

Due to its precision, flexibility and efficiency, laser cutter is capable of processing various complicated work-pieces. With the finished cutting graphics being imported into the control system, the worker can set the size for cutting, which directly shortens the product processing and manufacturing cycle and effectively improves labor productivity.

4. Fast speed and optimized working environment

With fast working speed, stable working situation, low noise and no dust, laser cutting machine will not produce chemical substances harmful to the human body and the environment. It also protects workers from health threats and production sites from pollution, reducing investment and pollution and helping the optimization of the working environment complying with the trend of environmental protection.

5. Low maintenance cost and high cost performance

The maintenance of mechanical products is very expensive, while the laser cutting machine has stable performance which is durable and can work continuously.

Charging piles are generally non-standard products and require customized processing. Compared with conventional processing methods, the laser cutting process has excellent adaptability and flexibility, which can provide more room for the design and production of charging piles. It can carry out personalized processing according to specific design drawings. No matter how complex the graphics are, the processing does not need to increase costs. Small batch, multi variety, low-cost and rapid processing, Laser cutting is "tailored" for users.

At present, the new energy vehicle charging pile industry has become the focus of major national infrastructure construction and occupies a crucial strategic position in the national economic construction. In particular, in recent years, new energy vehicles have blossomed and new forces of vehicle manufacturing have risen rapidly. Looking forward to the world, the number of new energy vehicles in China has accounted for about half of the world. With the continuous growth of the number of new energy vehicles, charging with public charging piles has become the choice of more and more new energy vehicle owners. Laser cutting of new energy vehicle charging piles promotes the development and construction of green new infrastructure.
