Trend materials, and their excellent resistance to automotive fluids. The weight reduction potential is significant, as fibre-reinforced materials do not require high part thickness. For truck engines, one of the demands is that the engine be able to stand on the oil sump if the engine is dismantled for repair purposes. To meet the EU regulation on end-of-life vehicles, a recycling concept was developed and a company called European Composite Recycling Concept (ECRC) was established in Brussels to develop recycling solutions for composite parts. An ecological impact study carried out by BASF proves that the ecobalance of SMC parts (here a decklid) is very positive, especially when compared to steel and aluminium. an annual volume of 60,000 vehicles, SMC is definitely the best choice in terms of cost. One tool only is required for the inner shell and one for the outer shell, and the total costs are much lower than for a sheet-metal solution. As steel parts need five tools to form the inner shell and at least five tools for the outer shell, tooling costs are tremendously high for volumes under 100,000 p.a. But even at a volume of 150,000 p.a. with three tools each for inner and outer shell, SMC becomes worthwhile if facelifts are implemented as described above. Cost optimisation Considering the yearly number of vehicles for which SMC and BMC parts are feasible, it is clear that there is no limitation for smaller injection-moulded parts. The short cycle time of stateof-the-art Menzolit compounds and the ability to have multiple cavities allow an extremely high output per hour. For larger compression-moulded SMC parts, there are limitations for steel and SMC in mass production (see graph below). Comparison of an SMC tailgate to a sheet-metal tailgate. Cost comparison metal SNC failgate. In the automotive industry, SMC, BMC and CIC materials are widely used for structural, exterior, functional and engine applications. With the recent developments and adaptations of Menzolit, there is a great potential for the materials to fulfil the changing requirements, especially for fuel consumption and CO2 emission. The latest developments are CarbonSMC® and AdvancedSMC®, a carbon-fibre-reinforced material used for the MercedesMcLaren SLR’s scuttle panel, which forms a part of the body-inwhite structure of the vehicle. Carbon-fibre compounds can further reduce the part weight. Assuming that a vehicle has a lifecycle of nine years and “facelifts” after three and six years, the graph indicates that, for More information: www.menzolit.com No34 July-August 2007 / JEC Composites Magazine
