Joining in Car Body Engineering 2023
THE NORTH AMERICA NETWORK
JOINING THE AUTOMOTIVE REVOLUTION
The automotive industry is currently undergoing major changes - from the shift towards e-mobility and the increase in digitalization to a complete gear-change in the direction of sustainability. As a result, many aspects of automotive development as well as production need to be reimagined, redesigned, reimplemented.
Body shop joining technologies play a key role in supporting these changes. They enable the growing number of advanced mixed material and lightweight design concepts and the integration of new materials and additional components such as battery housings into car body structures, all of which have their own, new use cases and performance requirements.
At the same time, new sustainability targets must be met and a growing digitalization infrastructure implemented to maintain the right balance between production efficiency, cost efficiency and flexibility potential.
