Session

Metal-Plastic Bonding — Innovative Hybrid Design Approaches for Lightweight and Cost-Effective Power Electronics Housings

Solution Study

Thursday, March 26

11:25 am - 11:50 am

Live in Munich

Less Details

As electric axles become increasingly compact and functionally integrated (X in 1 solutions), integrating power electronics with innovative and lightweight housings while ensuring thermal efficiency and durability is a major engineering challenge. This session explores how innovative hybrid material solutions are enabling more lightweight, cost-effective, and integrated e-axle systems. The combination of advanced polymer-metal pairings with innovative joining processes can get the best out of both material types and combining them to create technologically advanced solutions.

You will hear more about:

  • Innovative leak-tight metal-plastic bonding process and material characteristics
  • Hybrid design approaches for thermal, structural, and electromagnetic optimization
  • Integration potentials for lightweight and cost-effective power electronics cases

Company

Röchling Automotive

http://www.roechling.com/automotive/
As a manufacturer of high-performance plastic products for the automotive industry, we attach particular importance to low weight and flexible processing options. We are active worldwide in the areas of Aerodynamics, Propulsion, Structural Lightweight and Battery Solutions - with around 6,000 colleagues at over 40 locations in 17 countries in Europe, Asia and North and South America. We realize our vision "We Drive Sustainable Mobility" through the use of sustainable bioplastics, recycles, and battery solutions. In the aerodynamics product area, our products ensure less driving resistance. This reduces CO2 emissions and energy consumption. Electric vehicles benefit from a greater range and combustion engines require less fuel. We are constantly expanding our expertise in plastics processing, product design, function integration, and simulation to provide better solutions in the field of propulsion. We want to increase efficiency and reduce emissions. We use structural lightweight to make vehicles lighter and electromobility safer. The product line stands for the lightness of driving. High-performance plastics merge with functions to create structural components that are lighter and more compact. In the field of battery solutions, we have been designing and producing a wide variety of battery components in series. We are familiar with the requirements of both the automotive industry and battery suppliers and offer customized, sustainable solutions for all battery types.
