Automotive Product Development at OEM Level (CATIA V5)
Using CATIA V5, we conduct automotive product development at OEM level. We handle the complete component development—from design, attachment points, tolerances, and fastening concepts to production-oriented design suitable for small-batch and series production.
Focus areas: Carbon and composite components, as well as plastic and metal parts. In carbon and plastics, we bring extensive practical experience from international projects, with decisions always considering feasibility, cost, and series production capability.
Added value: Proactive approach with quick counter-proposals on materials, processes, and sourcing. Through integration with our international parts sourcing, we evaluate alternatives early on.
Special focus:
- Carbon & composite components for automotive applications.
- Plastic and metal components.
- Weight optimization and package/space integration.
Result: Technically clean, approval-ready components that are constructively sound, economically viable, and reliably manufacturable.
Our innovative core areas include:
Development of vacuum plastic injection molded components
Use of materials such as:
- ABS
- Polycarbonate (PC)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- Polyamide (PA)
- PEEK.
Development of carbon components
Use of materials such as:
- • CFK (CFRP – Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer)
- GFK (GFRP – Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer)
- AFK (AFRP – Aramid Fiber Reinforced Polymer)
- CFK/GFK hybrids
- AFK/CFK hybrids
- Elastomers/EPDM
- Sandwich systems.
Development of precise metal parts:
Various coating techniques such as:
- Aluminum anodization
- Hard chrome plating
- Nickel plating
- PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition)
- CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition)
- etc.
