The world is shifting away from fossil fuels and carbon emissions and towards smart grids and electric vehicles. These changes create a need for automotive manufacturers to look for suppliers with innovative lightweighting solutions that can handle joining mixed-material car body designs.
Now more than ever, vehicle manufacturers are using lightweight materials in their vehicle bodies. Some of these materials include aluminum, high-strength, ultra-high-strength steel, composites, and carbon fiber.
Joining various car body components can be complicated when processes such as welding are not a perfect solution and are not capable of ensuring that safety-critical joints have the integrity to withstand crash tests.
As a result of using an increased level of aluminum content in vehicles, OEMs have turned to us for solutions to join vehicle body components that hold integrity and can withstand the rigorous safety standards mandated by governments worldwide.
We provide robust, stable, proven solutions with our industrial dispensing, self-pierce riveting, and flow drill fastening technologies. Our technologies are applied both independently and together in several car body joining applications and processes. No matter what the joining challenge is, we always look at the big picture of our customers’ processes. We work at your side to develop tailor-made solutions that meet the highest standards in productivity, quality, and sustainability. We want to be an extension of your Innovation Team.
Drive your process to the next level with our Quality Assurance (QA) Smart Connected Solutions for Industry 4.0. Plan. Program and perform your quality inspections wherever you are. Access data in real-time and check results from any device with a web browser.

Temperature management plays a key role for the high-voltage batteries of electric vehicles. Battery cells can only deliver maximum performance within a certain temperature range and must not overheat. In order to effectively transfer the heat caused by cell operation to the surroundings, a thermal compound is applied to the battery tray – this is a critical step in the joining process.
