Lightweight

The design concept and building of lightweight vehicles support economic and ecological targets. This results in fuel savings and less material consumption (resources) but also limits the need of higher-class driver license for vehicles. With constructions like honeycomb panels, plastic parts instead of steel, stiff and durable fiber-reinforced material modern vehicle design and lightweight goes hand in hand.

Efficient Productivity

The individual construction and industrial design of a modern vehicle require a large variety of individual parts. Our systems provide solutions for small series and individually customized vehicles. By considering the economic scale for the design, manufacturing equipment to the production setup a perfect efficient solution will be evaluated. For larger series production the system can be scaled up and or adapted to mass production needs.
