德国威斯巴登（Wiesbaden） - 2019年3月5日 - 在今年的JEC世界上，2019年3月12日至14日在巴黎举行的复合材料的贸易展览会，SGL Carbon将专注于汽车行业的智能解决方案。在D25展台的6厅中，该公司将在座右铭“重量和性能优化器”下沿整个价值链沿着整个价值链展示各种量身定制的组件和高性能材料。汽车示例还代表了其他行业中可能的创新应用。
“As a reliable and innovative partner to our customers, we offer tailored solutions across industries, from fibers to finished parts, all from a single source. We help not only to produce lighter components, but also boost performance thanks to greater durability of individual components or improved overall architectures,” explained Andreas Wüllner, president of the Divisional Board of Composites – Fibers & Materials at SGL Carbon.
Tailored solutions for automotive serial production
Carbon composite rear wall for high-performance cars
Highlights include a carbon fiber-reinforced rear wall for a high-performance car from a major German automobile manufacturer, which was implemented in serial production in cooperation with SGL Carbon. As a light body-reinforcing element, the design not only helps to keep the overall weight low — it is also crucial for configuring the entire vehicle’s performance. The rear wall structure was laid out to meet load path requirements in cross-departmental collaboration between specialists from material engineering, product design and process design. Joining of metal materials to composite materials also came into play over the course of the project, with SGL Carbon offering just the right material and process expertise.
运动模型的天然纤维组件
The innovative natural fiber concept for a sportscar manufacturer also celebrated its trade fair premiere. In developing the motorsport model, the focus was placed on both, extreme performance and sustainability. This is why the carmaker opted for a hybrid biology-based composite for the doors and rear spoilers. In concrete terms, the components consist of a combination of biology-based natural fibers and fossil-based carbon fibers as well as conventional plastics. SGL Carbon developed a specifically pre-impregnated natural fiber fabric based on a fast-curing resin. Concepts for accelerated pressing processes and tools engineering were also developed in collaboration with the Lightweight and Application Center of SGL Carbon.
Visible carbon components with a high degree of functional integration
Besides complex structure and fitting requirements, component production also demands extensive surface properties for visible carbon components to ensure a perfect look.
SGL碳在这个仍然重要的领域还拥有多年的经验和专业知识，一方面是JEC World，一方面是基于编织的碳纤维的支柱杆，可确保BMW型号的发动机舱室中的稳定性和视觉亮点M2，M3和M4以及另一方面，SGL Carbon还将展示由碳纤维非编织材料制成的骑车载体，用于跑车制造商，用于跑车的后端，作为安装破坏者的平台。
基于玻璃纤维的叶弹簧
玻璃纤维增强塑料（GFRP）叶弹簧只是一个组成部分，它为高量连续生产提供了主要潜力。如今，它已经被用作大约40辆沃尔沃型号的后桥的横叶弹簧，在奥地利的SGL工厂中，在一个完全自动化的制造工艺中，每年数十万，在该行业中无与伦比。弹簧的主要优势包括与标准钢弹簧相比，减轻重量高达65％，更大的驾驶舒适度和更多的内部空间。Leaf Spring也可以以纵向形式实现，目前正在与来自欧洲和北美的著名汽车制造商一起在新的联合项目中实施。
Composite battery boxes for electric vehicles
Growing electromobility also means battery boxes made of glass-fiber and carbon-fiber composite materials are also gaining in importance. SGL Carbon’s high-voltage battery housing concept represents a reduction in weight of up to 50 percent compared with the corresponding steel component. It meets the highest of standards in terms of fire resistance, rigidity, acoustics and both thermal and electromagnetic shielding. With fiber composites, sensors can also be integrated to detect damage in the underbody of the electric vehicle. Damage is recognized early on, so the vehicle electronics can take safety precautions right away. Using carbon-fiber nonwoven materials and fiber-reinforced thermosetting polymers helps to map complex geometries with a process streamlined for serial production – yet another testament to SGL Carbon’s aspiration to continually optimize component efficiency and manufacture.
高性能材料和广泛的流程专业知识
At the JEC World, SGL Carbon will also present trend-setting processing and application variants as well as advanced material classes.
有效的热塑性骨骼设计中的挡风玻璃
One good example is the combination of formable thermoplastic profiles and subsequent extrusion coating with thermoplastic short-fiber granules into a complex skeletal structure. This concept was developed several years ago for a BMW cowl component as part of the “MAI Skelett” project sponsored by the German government. The advantages of this approach include integration into existing, highly automated production processes combined with extremely fast cycle times of under 75 seconds per part. SGL Carbon now offers high-quality thermoplastic profiles pultruded in-house with high fiber volumes (>45%) that can be processed immediately, without blending, thanks to their fully consolidated state.
Advancing fiber placement together
在“行动中的复合材料”展览空间（6号厅，S84）中，SGL碳也将在慕尼黑技术大学（TUM）的纤维放置主题上提供。该摊位将突出显示纤维放置中心，该中心是在Fraunhofer JGCV，SGL碳，TUM和其他合作伙伴之间合作运作的。该中心旨在在Augsburg附近的SGL Meitingen所在地的JEC上发表，并在SGL Meitingen地点介绍，旨在在跨行业的主要系列应用程序中启动生产过程，同时在资源和效率方面优化概念。
