Automotive manufacturing relies on the use of efficient, high-volume processes which guarantee productivity and quality. In practical terms, this can be translated into effective performance-based body-in-white solutions that deliver speed, precision and the flexibility to handle the growing use of multiple materials.
In an exclusive Comau webinar on November 20, Martin Kinsella, director of Advanced Materials and Process Technologies, will discuss the challenges facing the industry as it rapidly moves toward the use of advanced lightweight materials in body and closure systems. He will also outline a flexible manufacturing strategy to cost-effectively accommodate the combination of materials used throughout the vehicle – from aluminium, composites and plastics to hybrid materials.
