A carbon fiber molding technology to make cost effective BIW inner panels to fit before e-coat paint process
About
HiLiTe is a snap curing composite technology designed for semi-structural panels that will be subject to high temperature painting processes. The process is developed to produce over 100,000 components per year and is suitable for automotive applications such as inner panels for closures.
Key Benefits
Short cycle time Weight saving Able to be bonded to a metal body before paint Can use either carbon fiber or glass fiber depending on cost/weight saving target
Applications
Painted body structures
