Aluminum extrusion is a technique used to transform aluminum alloy into objects with a definitive cross-sectional profile, for a wide range of applications. The extrusion process makes the most of aluminum’s unique combination of physical characteristics. For instance, its malleability allows it to be easily machined and cast. However, aluminum is one-third the density and stiffness of steel, and the resulting products offer strength and stability, particularly when alloyed with other metals.  With the growing focus toward reducing exhaust emissions, and to meet the fuel economy standards, the demand for aluminum and aluminum-extrusion has been increasing, as aluminum extrusion aids automobile manufacturers in reducing vehicle weight, while accommodating additional safety and convenience.  The extruded aluminum content in the vehicles has been continually increasing over the past few years, and the new vehicle launches over the years have validated that growth outlook.

West African countries, such as Nigeria and Ghana, have witnessed a significant rise in demand for refined fuels, such as gasoline and LPG, on account of strong economic growth, increasing number of vehicle sales, and penetration of LPG in the recent times. However, the West African economy does not produce enough refined products to meet its demand. Hence, it is dependent on imports, supporting differential pricing and refiners’ margin.

The Indian government introduced 100% FDI into the automotive and automotive component sector. As a result, many foreign companies have started establishing facilities in the country for manufacturing vehicles for the local and global markets. For instance: One of the biggest Chinese automobile manufacturers, SAIC Motor, planned to invest USD 1 billion by the end of 2018. It is also exploring possibilities for setting up a manufacturing unit in one of the three states of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu. Kia Motors is investing approximately USD 1.1 billion in India, and intends to set up a greenfield car plant to produce 3,000 units a year. One of the biggest automotive manufacturers in the world, BMW, is planning to manufacture a local version of below-500 CC motorcycle, the G310R, in the TVS Motor’s Hosur plant, in Tamil Nadu.

Ultrafast or ultrashort pulse lasers have become essential manufacturing tools across industries, such as automotive, medical device, and consumer electronics, owing to the advantages, such as enhanced dimensional accuracy and tighter tolerances, and elimination of post-processing steps.

The used car market in the country is growing rapidly. The main reason for the same has been the advent of organized players in the market, which has taken care of the trust deficit, plaguing the Indian used car market for ages. A decade ago, almost all of the sales in the Indian used car market took place in the unorganized sector. Sellers would pass substandard products to the buyers. Thus, most people preferred to buy cars in their family and friends circle, and from acquaintances.

The demand for extra luggage space has increased off late. For family trips and weekend trips, the amount of luggage that the family or the person carries has increased over the years. This is also coupled by the amount of accessories that a luggage requires when a person goes on an adventure trips. Increasing luggage would require the owners to add a roof rack to the car to transport extra luggage. Nowadays, people carry more clobber, go on more holidays, and participate in sports that require more bulky kits than just a football or tennis racquet. Even a couple of mountain bikes carried on a rack can contribute to the rising demand for car racks. All such events demand an extra luggage space, which is more than a conventional boot space.
