Why implement multi-material structures in the industry?
Why implement multi-material structures in the industry? Reduced emissions, energy savings and better use of raw materials. These are the challenges posed by climate change worldwide. The transport of the future needs to face these challenges while meeting the requirements of personalised, multi-modal and above all, safe mobility.
Making vehicles lighter and using raw materials is not only the answer to the above challenges, but it also enables the different players in the value chain to be more competitive through the development of new and innovative products and manufacturing processes within the field of advanced manufacturing.
Benefits for companies:
- Increased competitiveness and international positioning compared with their competitors through the manufacture of higher added-value components.
- Reduced energy or fuel consumption and emissions through the development of lighter multi-material components and assemblies resulting in a better use of raw materials.
- Reduced manufacturing costs associated with raw material and energy savings in innovative processes.
- Acquisition of strategic knowledge of new materials and processes.
- Improved quality and zero defects through the manufacture of new components with improved mechanical properties and the development of advanced multi-material joints.
