詳細
Cross Car Beams must meet strict requirements for stiffness, crash load absorption, and integration of various automotive components (steering column, HVAC, dashboard, etc.). They must also handle environmental challenges like humidity and temperatures up to 80°C. Plastic/metal hybrid and Hollow Profile Hybrid (HPH) technologies meet these needs with lower weight, cost, and environmental impact compared to traditional metal solutions.
