Automotive Industry Landscape Reshaped, Yonghua YU Series Injection Molding Machines Empower Lightweight and Intelligent Manufacturing
Introduction: In the evolution of the automotive industry from a "tripartite division" to a "four-power coexistence," the Yonghua Plastics Machinery YU series is leveraging precision injection molding technology to help component manufacturers seize market opportunities.

In the first half of 2025, the Chinese automotive market structure quietly changed: a new structure of the four leading types—internal combustion vehicles (51.1%), pure electric vehicles (30.2%), plug-in hybrid vehicles (13.7%), and range-extended electric vehicles (4.9%)—replaced the previously expected stable state of "pure electric, plug-in hybrid, and internal combustion vehicles dividing the market."
Behind this transformation is the urgent demand from automobile manufacturers for lightweight and intelligent production, which also brings new opportunities for upstream equipment suppliers.
Technology-driven, lightweight design as the key to success
New energy vehicles have an urgent need for lightweight design. Every reduction in weight means an increase in driving range, which is especially important in the context of no breakthroughs in battery technology.
Plastic products, with their advantages of being lightweight, corrosion-resistant, flexible in design, stable in performance, suitable for mass production, and low in cost, have become an important material in the automotive industry after steel and non-ferrous metals.

Yonghua Plastic Machinery, addressing the limitation of whole vehicle weight on the development of new energy vehicles, has developed the YU series models. These models enhance lightweighting for products with their injection molding capabilities, creating plastic products that are lightweight, smooth and flat, complex in shape, highly impact-resistant, and dimensionally accurate.
Yonghua YU Series, Precisely Meets Industry Needs
The YU series injection molding machine, as one of Yonghua's main models, features a small footprint, large mold space, fast production cycle, and excellent molding performance. Its core advantages include:

1High-precision closed-loop control
Utilize a high-response ratio directional valve and a high-precision electronic ruler to achieveClose-loop control for mold clamping sideEnsure fast response, stable operation, and high precision to meet the stringent requirements for dimensional accuracy and weight stability in automotive parts.
2Dual-cylinder parallel injection + linear guide rail
The injection side adopts a dual-cylinder parallel structure and linear guide design, resulting in more stable operation. Injection accuracy and response speed fully improvedEasily meet the production needs for plastic products with complex shapes and impact resistance.
3Rapid mold transfer + synchronous brake
Rapid mold-moving oil cylinder with diagonal balanced force distribution, significant.Shorten the mold opening and closing cycle.The synchronous brake mechanism works in conjunction with a short-stroke high-pressure hydraulic cylinder, rapidly establishing clamping force and significantly enhancing production efficiency.
4High-performance KEBA computer
Smart KEBA ComputerFlexibly adjust production parameters to help manufacturers achieve maximum productivity.
5High-rigidity box formwork design
Simple and compact structure,Space savings of approximately 20%The operation process is more worry-free, maintenance is more convenient, energy consumption is lower, and it saves overall costs for customers.
These technical features make the YU series particularly suitable for the manufacturing of automotive parts, especially meeting the dual demands for lightweight and precision in new energy vehicles. The series produces plastic products that are lightweight, smooth, complex in shape, impact-resistant, and dimensionally precise, effectively reducing the weight of components in multiple aspects.
Smart manufacturing empowers to tackle industry challenges.
As the transformation of the automotive industry accelerates, component suppliers are facing unprecedented pressure: they need to reduce costs while improving precision and consistency.

The YU series injection molding machine optimizes energy consumption and parameters in real-time through an intelligent system, helping enterprises find the best balance among a series of challenges. Its fast mold-moving and synchronized clamping technology shortens the production cycle, directly enhancing customer production efficiency and market response speed.
Looking ahead, the coexistence of oil and electricity generates sustained demand.
Market analysis indicates that the coexistence of oil and electricity will become a long-term norm. In the long run, the implementation of the China VII emission standards in 2027 and the dual carbon targets will accelerate technological upgrades. This diversified market structure means that injection molding equipment needs to have greater versatility and flexibility to meet the production needs of automotive parts using different energy types. The YU series injection molding machines are the ideal solution to meet this market demand.

In this profound transformation of the automotive industry, the Yonghua YU series injection molding machines, with their precise control, efficient production, and energy-saving and environmentally friendly advantages, are becoming the preferred partner for many auto parts manufacturers in their transformation and upgrading!
Forty years of technological accumulation empowers the future of the industry. Yonghua Plastic Machinery is using innovative technology to help the automotive industry move towards a new era of lightweight and intelligence.
