Ford, GM, Toyota, Honda & Volvo Examine Mixed-Material Joining, Forming & Treatment Technologies At Lightweight Vehicle Manufacturing Summit In Detroit
The 4th Lightweight Vehicle Manufacturing Summit 2017
February 22-23, 2017 - Detroit, Michigan, USA
The industry-leading Global Automotive Lightweight Materials Series returns to Detroit on 22nd & 23rd of February, to showcase the latest edition of our Lightweight Manufacturing specific conference – The 4th Lightweight Vehicle Manufacturing Summit 2017.
Developed in close collaboration an industry advisory board, consisting of Toyota, Ford & General Motors, the The 4th Lightweight Vehicle Manufacturing Summit 2017 will feature a brand new agenda which will examine the latest joining, forming & surface treatment technologies and their applications for mixed material structures.
It features an expert speaker panel including Honda, Volvo, FCA, GM, Ford, Deer & Company and more, who will discuss the latest innovations in adhesives, additive manufacturing, machine learning, multi-material joining methods, corrosion mitigation techniques and more.
In addition, driven by updated EPA regulations, the event launches an exclusive new discussion area, focused on specific lightweighting technologies and manufacturing techniques for medium and heavy-duty vehicles, alongside our long-established passenger vehicles focus.
Here’s a preview of our new features for 2017 –
TRUCKS AND HEAVY VEHICLES:
To drive the development of lightweighting across all the US automotive industry, for the first time this year, we introduce specific focus on Lightweighting for Medium & Heavy Duty trucks alongside passenger vehicles, in light of recent EPA regulatory changes
LATEST ALUMINUM DEVELOPMENTS:
This year's program will cover the whole spectrum of aluminum related technology developments, including aluminium castings, sheets & extrusions, joining with aluminum, corrosion mitigation, recycling, and more
MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES FOR MULTI-MATERIAL STRUCTURES:
We will bring together manufacturing experts to share their expertise and evaluate the pros and cons of each new technology to support practical application in manufacturing contexts
FUTURE FOCUS:
We will consider what opportunities lie ahead through advanced processes and technologies for automotive lightweighting, including additive manufacturing, machine learning, plastic & composite technologies
