Ductile iron is a versatile material that has grown in popularity over recent decades, due to its excellent mechanical properties and castability. For these reasons, ductile iron castings are the preferred choice in many sectors, including wind energy, engineering and automotive industries.

Silicon plays a crucial role in aluminum vehicle parts manufacturing. It is a common alloying element added to aluminum to enhance its mechanical properties. When incorporated, silicon increases the alloy's strength, stiffness, and wear resistance, making it an ideal choice for automotive components.

Foundry alloys are essential for train bogies and suspensions. They offer high strength, durability, and resistance to wear and fatigue. These alloys reinforce components like wheels, axles, brakes, suspension arms, couplers, and spring assemblies, supporting heavy loads, enduring dynamic forces, and improving ride quality. Their reliability makes them crucial for safe and efficient railway transportation.

These alloys provide exceptional strength, durability, and corrosion resistance needed for demanding conditions. Used in valves, cylinders, pistons, and fittings, they allow intricate designs and precise manufacturing, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. Their reliability significantly enhances the functionality of pneumatic systems, maintaining consistent air pressure, controlling fluid flow, and enabling smooth actuation.

These alloys are chosen for specific properties crucial in various pump components. They offer exceptional strength, corrosion and wear resistance, ensuring reliable operation in tough conditions. Their versatility allows intricate designs, optimizing pump efficiency and reducing energy loss. From impellers to casings, shafts, and bearings, foundry alloys serve as essential elements for robust and efficient pump systems.

The automotive industry, which currently produces up to 80 million vehicles per year, is constantly innovating and demanding new high-performance applications, both under the hood and elsewhere in the car.  These new advanced automotive parts are often designed to reduce weight and fuel consumption, thereby leading to smaller and more compact engine compartments, The reduced space results in higher temperatures and more stress to vital parts because of higher air pressure, greater water flow, more powerful fuel injection and corrosive fluids.

By 2050, the growing world’s population will reach 10 billion people, with the great majority living in or near cities. Railways will become an important constituent in the transportation mix of trains, trams and subways, both for urban mobility and intercity travel. Rail system managers and train operators are developing efficient, safe, and cost-effective railway technologies.

For the last half century, the railway industry has revolutionized travel, becoming an essential mix in global transport solutions: fast-speed intercity trains, efficient regional links, urban trams, etc. Train and rolling stock manufacturers have been among the most innovative players in the transport industry, constantly seeking to improve their offer so that it meets travelers’ expectations for safe and efficient transport. Trains have also contributed to reducing the carbon imprint since they are increasingly electrically powered and have reduced urban automobile traffic by offering viable alternatives for regional and urban transportation.

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are increasingly being used to make molded parts for a wide variety of industries: automotive (including trucks and off-road vehicles), renewable energy (components such as wind-power propellers), aerospace, marine construction, architectural structures, etc. These composites combine excellent mechanical properties with a low density, and feature high resistance to water, chemical and environmental pressure.

Composites, also known as composite materials, are fiber-reinforced resins or polymers intertwined in matrices, which are molded in expansive thermosetting processes to produce lightweight and highly resistant parts and structures.

Silicone pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA) are commonly used by composite manufacturers in the automotive industry for bonding various parts such as body panels, hoods, and spoilers. They provide an instant bond with excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, and UV radiation, allowing for a more efficient production process. PSA can be used to attach composite panels to a metal frame, bond different layers of composite material together, or attach accessories such as spoilers or body kits. It also allows for easy removal without leaving a residue, which is useful during the assembly process. In summary, silicone PSA is a versatile adhesive that is ideal for composite manufacturing in the automotive industry due to its ability to adhere to different substrates, resistance to heat and chemicals, and easy removal.
