Per poter commercializzare in Italia i propri sistemi per il rinforzo strutturale, a partire dal nuovo anno i fabbricanti devono possedere il CVT – Certificato di Valutazione Tecnica. Il Ministero ha prorogato la scadenza per l’obbligatorietà del Certificato al 30 giugno 2021.
Nissan Motor Co supported in its production processes by ESI Group, a global player in Virtual Prototyping software and services for industry. Car parts will be developed with carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP), a lightweight yet strong material. The cars produced will be safer and more fuel-efficient.
Leavine Family Racing, has selected the MakerBot METHOD X 3D printing system to produce a number of car parts. MarketBot has been chosen for its broad portfolio of advanced materials and thermoplastics available for both rapid prototyping and final parts. METHOD has been chosen for its capacity to print at high temperatures.
Saudi Aramco and energy technology firm Baker Hughes have announced the formation of a 50/50 joint venture to develop and commercialize new systems for the petroleum industry based on non-metallic materials. The new company will be called Novel Non-Metallic Solutions Manufacturing (Novel). The new facility will produce non-metallic pipelines, including reinforced thermoplastic pipes (RTP), from composite materials.
Quali sono i test che consentono di determinare le migliori performance di un materiale composito progettato e realizzato ad hoc per una specifica applicazione? Quali sono ad oggi, le tecnologie di produzione che danno vita a componenti sempre più performanti?
The PAL-V Liberty is officially the world’s first flying car to be street legal! The flying car recently passed the European road admission tests. The PAL-V’s hybrid composite chassis is made of carbon fiber body composites.
Lancaster University researchers have discovered how to create a composite material capable of capturing thermal energy from the sun and storing it for long periods. Implementation of these materials could allow researchers to find other smart and innovative solutions.
Sicomin’s GreenPoxy® 33 bio-based epoxy resin, a clear system formulated especially for compression molding techniques, was used to make carbon fiber windsurf fins. The collaboration with Sonnatg Fins made it possible to create a customized product that combines speed, fatigue performance and sustainability.
The CarE-Service project is aimed to face current and future challenges towards the transformation from traditional fuel cars to Electric (EV) and Hybrid (HEV) vehicles. The project proposal aims at demonstrating innovative business models entailing the re-use, remanufacturing and recycling of some key components of E&HEVs. The topic will be deepened in a dedicated webinar on December 9th.
The Italian company collaborated with Romeo Ferraris on the design and production of the new all-electric car: Alfa Romeo Giulia ETCR. Together they achieved performance, aesthetics and aerodynamics in the carbon fiber bodywork to compete in the Pure ETCR 2021.
