This is the key to sustainable car body production! KIRCHHOFF Automotive has shown that, contrary to popular belief, hot forming can reduce the CO2 footprint of automotive components. According to Markus Loecker, technology development specialist, hot forming enables the use of thinner materials, which reduces the overall weight of the vehicles. This leads to lower CO2 emissions for both combustion and electric vehicles. On the other hand, less material is used, which represents the greatest CO2 reduction in production. The main advantage is therefore the lower use of materials, which significantly reduces the CO2 footprint. Hot forming is used for safety-critical parts such as crash management systems and pillars, creating hard, resilient steel that increases vehicle safety and sustainability. Loecker: "Hot forming is a key element in sustainable automotive manufacturing and helps us to reduce our environmental impact through smarter use of materials." #kirchhoffautomotive #makingmobilitysafe #Sustainability #HotForming #Innovation #GreenTech

This ZF driving function enables the next step in active collision avoidance. 👇 ⚠️ Automatic Emergency Steering (AES) is activated when the system detects an imminent collision with a road user that cannot be avoided by braking only. 🛣️ The environmental data provided by ZF sensors enables the system to calculate an avoidance maneuver within the driving lane to avoid the collision or make it less severe. 🚗 ZF offers a variety of automated driving and safety functions, either integrated or as a stand-alone solution. We will present these functions that enable increased comfort and safety here on LinkedIn in the coming weeks. #FunctionsFriday #ADAS #AutomatedDriving

ZF LIFTEC vs. Plastic Earth Day🌏 is an annual event celebrated on April 22nd to promote appreciation for our planet and raise awareness about environmental issues. It was first established in 1970 and is considered the beginning of the modern environmental movement. This year, the focus is primarily on avoiding unnecessary plastic waste. ZF LIFETEC is researching sustainable solutions along the 6 R’s for some time now and is enhancing its collaborations with different institutions that are technological forerunners in their expertise of recycling solutions. 6 R’s of Sustainability: - Rethink: question our consumption habits and look for alternatives - Refuse: say no to products or services that harm the environment - Reduce: use less resources and energy - Reuse: find new ways to use items that would otherwise be discarded - Repair: fix broken items instead of replacing them - Recycle: turn waste materials into new products In the field of passive safety, replacing materials in safety critical products with more sustainable or recycled content is an ambitious task, despite these challenges, we are making continual improvements. The ultimate discipline here is to transfer material consumption into a circular model. Regarding waste reduction and reuse of packaging materials for global shipping, we currently save several thousand tons of PET each year. This is just the first step; the fight against plastic continues. #EarthDay #ZFLifetec #Sustainability #ActingForClimateandNature #ReducePlasticWaste #PassiveSafetySystems #Airbag #Recycling
