Car Body Parts
from development to production
A new era of engineering car body parts?
Recently, much attention has been paid to achievements in series car body developments incorporating very large (Aluminium) castings, taking the complexity and functional part integration of such “Gigacastings” to new levels, with some voices regarding these achievements as a quantum leap, opening up a new era of car body engineering, and others still remaining sceptical regarding the performance or the economic viability of such parts.
At the same time…
In this situation, Automotive Circles new conference Car Body Parts – from development to production aims at critically analysing and discussing specific progress in all relevant processes that are being used, or show a high potential of being used, in industrial car body part manufacturing.
Like in the previous year, the conference will be divided in two modules:
September 26-27:
Module 1 – Casting, Molding, Additive Technologies
September 27-28:
Module 2 – Panel Forming, Extrusions
We are looking forward to meeting you in Bad Nauheim in September!
