This shown application is still a frontrunner in lightweight engineering. If you like getting more details please visit us at #Fakuma in Hall B 4 at our stand 4302 29th #Fakuma International Fair for Polymers 15.–19. Oktober 2024 in Friedrichshafen First all-plastic brake pedal for #battery-electric sports car! ENVALIOR and a leading TIER1 jointly developed a 50 percent lighter brake pedal compared to a part made from steel that is suitable for large-scale #production using hybrid molding without loss of properties. In a battery-electric sports car, every gram of weight counts. That is why the first mass-production vehicle in this segment is using an all-plastic brake pedal. This safety-critical component owes its high mechanical strength and very low weight to a #thermoplastic composite design. Its structure comprises an insert made from Tepex dynalite, a continuous-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite from ENVALIOR, and several tapes. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dU5XAxn

Sika Automotive is proud to announce that we're a finalist for the 2025 Automotive News PACE Award! Sika's innovation for vehicle assembly is our SikaSeal®-832, a 1-component, bulk-applied and pumpable, heat-expanding baffle/sealant, designed specifically for small cavities within a vehicle. The technology removes the need for costly tooling for parts and manually applied tapes (where applicable) and opens further horizons where parts technology does not fit to geometries. This offers additional acoustic sealing solutions for modern vehicles. SikaSeal®-832 utilizes traditional adhesive pumping equipment, plus e-coat and paint oven equipment, already in use in assembly operations today!

6moThis is a great example of what can be done with thermoplastic composites regarding mechanical properties and with thermoplastic processing technologies regarding complexity of design and production efficiency. I first heard about this component in the lecture of Prof. Dr.-Ing.Helmut Schürmann when this component/application was still being a vision but feasible.
