As vehicle electrification accelerates, metal design is not always the optimal solution as it lowers complexity but increases curb weight. To maintain optimal driving experiences, there is a need to decrease the parts weight to compensate for increased battery weight.
To achieve lightweighting , you may extend your toolbox with engineering materials. Plastic solution eases logistics and transportation and allows less secondary operations (no milling/drilling, painting, corrosion protection) with lower energy consumption, less waste streams in production and less hazardous production steps. In the meantime it offers scalability for higher production numbers.
Designing in plastics is not straight forward; many influences determine the best suitable materials. Envalior has capabilities to support in every stage if the development process: Advanced part design and CAE calculations, material choice, cost assessment, mold lay-out and prototype/pre-series molding assistance.
ForTii® Ace MX53B is a high Tg PPA combining good toughness at low temperatures and chemical resistance. It is designed to replace metal in structural parts that need high performance over a broad temperature range, from -35°C to above 150°C, both in dry as well as conditioned environment.
