Solving the challenges posed by using mixed-material content in vehicle lightweighting

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.

SPR Rivet insertion

Skape en sterk og pålitelig forbindelse med selvstansende nagler

15 desember, 2025

Å sikre at selvstansende nagler (SPR) settes inn korrekt er avgjørende for sammenføyningens integritet. Selv om en visuell inspeksjon av naglehode kan indikere en pålitelig forbindelse, er det bare en del av helheten. La oss se nærmere på hvordan man kan garantere konsekvent, høy kvalitet på SPR-sammenføyninger gjennom smart konstruksjon og robuste evalueringsmetoder.

Fyllmasse: Kraftig masse for høyere ytelse

9 desember, 2019

Temperaturstyring spiller en nøkkelrolle for høyspenningsbatteriene i elektriske kjøretøy. Battericellene kan bare gi maksimal ytelse innenfor et bestemt temperaturområde og må ikke overopphetes. For at varmen skal overføres effektivt fra celledrift til omgivelsene, påføres en termisk masse på batterikassen – dette er et kritisk trinn i sammenføyningsprosessen.
