乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Advanced Materials Showcases Lightweight Solutions for Automotive Industry at Composites Europe 2017
乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Advanced Materials, hall C2, booth E24, Composites Europe, Stuttgart, 19-21 September 2017
This year鈥檚 Composites Europe sees 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Advanced Materials exhibit its range of innovative composite solutions for the automotive industry, including those used on the new BMW HP4 Race motorcycle 鈥� the first bike in the world to offer both a full carbon frame and wheels.
On booth C2/E24, the company will be showcasing a number of finished parts to demonstrate how its Araldite庐 branded resin systems, components and adhesives help automotive manufacturers decrease weight and processing costs, improving fuel efficiency and the overall driving experience. These parts include:
鈥⑻鼴MW HP4 race motorcycle 鈥� the first motorcycle to offer a full carbon frame and wheels. With a 7.8kg frame, 2.2kg front wheel and 3.1kg rear wheel, the bike boasts weight savings of 30% compared with an aluminium alternative
鈥⑻鼵arbon-fiber torque tube for Mercedes AMG-GT R 鈥� powered by Araldite庐 LY 8615/Aradur庐 8615 composite resin system, the torque tube is 40% lighter than its aluminium counterpart, significantly improving the driving experience of the car. Thanks to its integrated composite design, the need for metallic connecting flanges has been removed, allowing for extremely low weight to be achieved, while meeting huge torque loading (700Nm) and noise vibration harshness (NVH) requirements
鈥⑻鼿ood interior stiffener 鈥� an Araldite庐 composite resin system has enabled the development of car hoods with weights of less than 7.5kg 鈥� 50% lighter than their steel equivalents. The Araldite庐 solution is suitable for continuous preparation of short fibres compound followed by rapid on-line maturation, and two-minute compression moulding under press
Also on show will be an assembly carrier for Porsche GT3 Cup II and a BOXSTROM鈩� carbon hybrid composite wheel.
Nastassja Kelley, Marketing Director EMEAI at 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Advanced Materials, commented: 鈥淲e are seeing an increasing demand across the automotive industry for lightweight solutions that are suitable for use in high performance applications. Working with our customers to fully understand their needs, and adapting our solutions to meet these specifics, has enabled us to develop products that really push the boundaries of lightweighting. By demonstrating some of these parts at Composites Europe, we intend to show the industry what鈥檚 possible.鈥�
