    tech insights

    The increasing use of composite materials in industry poses new challenges for the circular economy. The reuse of these materials is particularly difficult. However, there is hope: through the intelligent design of components and the development of detachable joining technologies, composite materials can also be used to produce durable and...

    Exterior lighting has taken on a new significance in modern vehicle construction. Decorative design elements are used as well as innovative signal lights. However, conventional measuring and test systems are not set up for lighting systems across the entire width of the vehicle. The EDAG lighting laboratory sets new standards here. Not least due...

    Using the example of a transparent A-pillar and a motorcycle handlebar with structure-integrated cables, EDAG has researched how passive safety can be increased and individualization and greater freedom in component design can be achieved with the help of additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing processes are becoming increasingly more...

    Children are not small adults - this sentence is especially true when it comes to car safety. The anatomical and physiological differences to adults require special protective measures to minimize the risk of injury in road accidents for children too. A child's head is larger and heavier in relation to its body, while the neck muscles and skeleton...

    What if the design of an electric drivetrain no longer consisted of , a motor, a gearbox and a housing as well as the battery - but simply defined the path to the desired solution? The DNA as a "construction manual" for a generative development process pays off in particular when there is a large number of options to choose from or different...

    As the battery in an electric vehicle ages, its capacity will eventually drop to below an acceptable threshold level. This does not, however, mean that the battery can no longer be used and needs to be recycled. There is still plenty of capacity for other applications. These batteries can still do more than ten years' service in electricity...

    Does it make any difference to the climate which supplier delivers sheet metal or aluminum parts? Does the difference carry any weight at all? Or does the design still hold hidden potential for optimization with regard to sustainability and environmental friendliness? The Quick Life Cycle Assessment (QLCA) software developed by EDAG can answer...

    How is type approval regulated in the EU? Can approval be transferred to other markets, or what rules apply there? And what are the greatest challenges in the homologation process? A roadmap to navigate the jungle of international laws, regulations and ordinances. In the EU, homologation - in other words confirmation of the fact that a vehicle...

    The development of innovative technologies in the automotive industry is becoming increasingly complex. As numerous components and systems interact with each other, even a small change to a prototype can have a major impact on the functionality of the vehicle. This increases both the time-to-market and development costs. The EDAG team can offer...
