On March 26-27, the PIAE – Plastics in Automotive Engineering, the leading congress for plastics in the automotive industry, will take place in Mannheim, Germany.
We’re excited that our co-founder Dr. Martin Hohberg will be presenting together with Dr. Julius Rausch (AUDI) on:
“Method Development for Modeling the Mold Filling Process of Thermoplastic Parts with Continuous Fiber Reinforcement and Complex Rib Structures.”
As part of the protECOlight research project, we investigated sustainable and weight-optimized underbody protection structures for BEVs. This presentation will provide insights into:
- Relationship between component design (especially the rib design) and the compression force required for complete mold filling
- Experimental and simulation-based methods for process optimization
- Influence of local flow aids in LFT-tape-sandwiches on complete rib filling
When? March 26, 15:30
Where? Musensaal, Mannheim
We look forward to engaging discussions and connecting with industry experts—will we see you there?
