Changing Technologies in Automotive

 

In the automotive industry, the need for increased fuel efficiency and reliability, as well as changes in environmental legislation, is driving increasing demand for Bodycote’s value-added processes.

Components must be lower mass as well as more precise and durable, and a move away from using chrome due to environmental issues presents a new challenge for manufacturers of automotive parts. Bodycote is meeting this challenge through advanced heat treatment such as Low Pressure Carburising (LPC) and Corr-I- Dur (CiD), resulting in improved fuel efficiency and better corrosion protection, as well as reduced environmental impact.
