When it comes to reducing CO2 emissions in the automotive sector, the use of high yield strength steels and aluminium is not likely to be sufficient to reduce the weight of a vehicle to the required proportions. This is why it will be necessary to resort to the use of composite materials that offer an excellent combination of good mechanical properties and light weight.
We at FAGOR ARRASATE, being a leader in facilities for the automotive sector, are prepared to respond to the changes that will occur in the market in the coming years, and therefore we offer our customers facilities for composite materials.
The advantages of using composite materials in the automotive sector are as follows:
There are many types of composites. Thermoset and thermoplastic composites are two groups of materials from which lightweight components can be manufactured to achieve such ambitious goals as those of the automotive sector.
The use of hydraulic presses is recommended for all compound compression processes. The main features of hydraulic composite moulding presses are as follows:
