| Abstract |
Future technological and product developments will be measured by their improved resource and energy efficiency, as well as their competitiveness, while allowing effective climate and environmental protection. Manufacturing processes that are currently discrete for different groups of materials such as metals, plastics or textiles have to be merged to generate large-scale technologies for the sustainable production of high-performance structures for automotive applications. Fiber-reinforced plastics have been established in manufacturing components of high strength, stiffness and lightweight structures. Well-known examples are sandwich composites: an assembly of two continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic layers and an intermediate injection molded core structure. The vision is to make use of the savings potential of technology fusion and lightweight structures pursuant to the central idea of resource-efficient manufacturing technologies to produce multi-material components.
