ALUMAG White Paper: Unlock China’s Integrated Die Casting Market
As the lightweighting competition in the new energy vehicle sector enters its "second half," Integrated Die Casting (MEGA & GIGA Pressing) is no longer just a technological gimmick but a key factor determining cost, efficiency, and the supply chain landscape.

The Chinese market, as the "supermarket" for global integrated die-casting technology, is experiencing unprecedented boom and reshuffling. Which production regions are surging ahead? Which giants are overvalued? Which projects have quietly been abandoned? Who will seize the capacity for 8.4 million castings in the next four years?

Recently, from a third-party perspective, the renowned German automotive lightweighting media ALUMAG® officially released the "China Integrated Die Casting Market White Paper." This in-depth 18-page report presents a fully visualized, authentic ecosystem of China's super-large die casting (≥6000T), offering valuable reference and insights. With authorization from ALUMAG®, we are pleased to recommend this report to the entire industry.
 
 

 



 Report Highlights: More Than Just Data, a Decision-Making Guide
Based on ALUMAG's global automotive lightweighting database and local in-depth verification by FICMES, this report rejects vague industry rumors and presents only verified facts.
 
1. Market Overview: A Quick Glance at the Big Picture
  • MEGA & GIGA Press machine installations at OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers (counted by units & clamping force).
2. Capacity Map: Who is Truly Leading?
  • Capacity breakdown of four high-growth regions, detailed by press specifications, company, and province.
  • Visualized heatmap of the geographical distribution of die-casting islands in China.
3. 2025-2026 Competitive Landscape: The Race of Giants
  • Unveiling the capacity layout of the Top 4 and Top 10 die-casting giants.
  • First-ever disclosure of the 8.4 million units/year component capacity outlook – who dominates this massive opportunity?
4. Technology Trends: The Return of Magnesium Alloys and the Rise of THIXO (Semi-Solid)
  • While everyone focuses on aluminum, the report decodes the "resurgence" trend of magnesium alloys in large-scale die casting.
  • How is THIXO rheocasting technology changing the production logic for large thin-walled components?
5. Market Power Ranking: The Share Battle Between OEMs and Tier 1s
  • In-depth market share ranking of Top 10 OEMs and Top 10 Tier 1s.
6. The Harsh Truth: Projects That Didn't Succeed
  • The industry often promotes successes, but we've filtered for the facts.
  • Exclusive Disclosure: Approximately 30% of MEGA & GIGA pressing projects have been confirmed canceled or postponed. This "avoidance guide" will help you reassess investment risks.
7. 2030 Vision: Forecasts for Four Major Application Scenarios
  • Focusing on four major platforms: FUB (Front Underbody), Battery Tray, C-/D-Pillar, RUB (Rear Underbody).
  • Market share, CAGR, and OEM platform demand forecasts by application.
8. Material Insights: Primary Aluminum vs. Recycled Aluminum
  • Analysis of the competition and proportion trends between primary and recycled aluminum in different functional applications (structural/non-structural components).
9. Supplier Panorama
  • Overview of global HPDC equipment suppliers and their currently achievable maximum clamping force limits.
