HyFiVe

Description

The project "High volume variant production of plastic-metal hybrid components" (HyFiVe) is a combined component and production process development for the high volume variant production of fibre-plastic-metal hybrid components. Global challenges, such as the efficient use of resources, place ambitious demands on new components in all industries with regard to sustainability aspects. In automobile production, hybrid and purely electric drive technologies offer sustainable solutions to meet the requirements of all stakeholders in the future mobility. Different requirements of the market, customers and legislators result in a large number of variants which, from the point of view of production technology, can be implemented in a techno-economical, ecological and socially acceptable way.

Aim of the project

While large-volume production processes for the manufacture of hybrid components have made their first appearance in industrial automobile production, new challenges arise from a production engineering perspective with the demand for a high number of variants. Technology development for the production of variants of fibre-plastic-metal hybrid components in line with requirements addresses three fields of action along the process chain that are essential for the HyFiVe project. Within the field of action "Semi-finished product development", the aim is to provide suitable semi-finished products for the variant production of plastic-metal hybrid components, taking into account the specific requirements in the field of battery housing structures. The field of action "Pre- and In-Mould Variant Creation" develops process technologies for the variant production of hybrid components using the impact extrusion process based on the production of shape-flexible three-dimensional preforms. The aim of "Post-Mould Variant Production" is to master suitable additive manufacturing processes for the subsequent expansion of the variant spectrum and for the reliable contacting of functional elements.
