The transportation sector is leading towards lighter and more sustainable vehicles. Composite materials are going to be the key to innovation and efficiency in production and design. These materials are lightweight, fatigue resistant, easily moulded and durable over time, thanks to the processes and technologies employed during their production.

Their applications are limitless: series production, high-end options, structural parts and much more.  Current construction processes with thermoset matrix include: Autoclave, Infusion, Compression moulding, SMC, RTM, Polutrusion and thermofoming.

Thermoplastic materials will shape future of the industry, leading to a dedicated development of the technological process according to the chosen material.

Top material manufacturers are putting all their energies into making thermoplastics affordable on a large production scale: the automotive industry is currently focused on mass production.

No matter where in the production chain a TIER is located, choosing a well experienced supplier is essential to minimise the risk of errors and speed up the production.

Erre Ti has been helping companies for over 20 years in shaping the most accurate advanced prototypes.
