Global Compressor Wheel Market: Introduction A compressor wheel is a crucial component of a turbocharger and is used to boost the intake of air pressure of an internal combustion engine. Traditionally, compressor wheels are produced from aluminum because of its low density. Aluminum weighs only approximately one third as much as steel. The process to cast compressor wheels is simple and inexpensive with aluminum. In the post-production process, proper heat and solution treatment are required to create a stronger wheel. In more recent times, a high proportion of turbochargers are spinning faster than ever before, with high pressure. Thus, if the compressor wheel has been produced from weak cast materials, then due to high spinning speed, the blades of the compressor wheel will begin to bend backwards. Hence, alternative materials and manufacturing processes are required to handle this pressure. In the past few years, with changing operating conditions and customer demand...
