The world is shifting away from fossil fuels and carbon emissions and towards smart grids and electric vehicles. These changes create a need for automotive manufacturers to look for suppliers with innovative lightweighting solutions that can handle joining mixed-material car body designs.
Now more than ever, vehicle manufacturers are using lightweight materials in their vehicle bodies. Some of these materials include aluminum, high-strength, ultra-high-strength steel, composites, and carbon fiber.
Joining various car body components can be complicated when processes such as welding are not a perfect solution and are not capable of ensuring that safety-critical joints have the integrity to withstand crash tests.
As a result of using an increased level of aluminum content in vehicles, OEMs have turned to us for solutions to join vehicle body components that hold integrity and can withstand the rigorous safety standards mandated by governments worldwide.
We provide robust, stable, proven solutions with our industrial dispensing, self-pierce riveting, and flow drill fastening technologies. Our technologies are applied both independently and together in several car body joining applications and processes. No matter what the joining challenge is, we always look at the big picture of our customers’ processes. We work at your side to develop tailor-made solutions that meet the highest standards in productivity, quality, and sustainability. We want to be an extension of your Innovation Team.

La gestion de la température joue un rôle clé pour les batteries haute tension des véhicules électriques. Les éléments de batterie ne peuvent fournir des performances maximales que sous une certaine plage de températures et ne doivent pas surchauffer. Afin de transférer efficacement la chaleur produite par le fonctionnement des éléments autour d'eux, un composé thermique est appliqué sur le support de batterie ; il s'agit d'une étape vitale du processus d'assemblage.
