Automobile manufacturers around the world are pursuing a major goal: They always want cleaner Vehicles produce with ever lower fuel consumption. Against this background, the demand for systems is increasing Petrol direct injectionwho have favourited the CO2- Dramatically reduce emissions. The one needed for it Solid body joint provides PrecisionMicro here.
Photochemical etching is by far that best production methods for the flexure joint. Its properties are particularly suitable for working with high-performance spring steel. Thanks to the tension-free process, the springs work longer and more reliably - a key aspect when used in safety-critical and demanding environments such as GDI systems.
The market for Petrol direct injection Systems is growing: While only around 2008% of vehicles had this technology in 2, according to the latest forecasts, by 2020 25% of all vehicles will be equipped with gasoline direct injection (GDI) as standard. One element of these GDI systems is the solid-state joint for gasoline direct injection, which the etching technology specialist Precision Micro manufactures for the automotive supplier industry. The photo-chemically etched joints experience a significant growth spurt thanks to the overall increasing demand in the automotive sector.
Solid body joint for Continental & Co.
The supplier delivers its photo-chemically etched solid-state joint to three of the five most important international manufacturers of gasoline direct injection technology with flat springs, including Continental. A five-year contract for the delivery of flexure joints was concluded with the well-known automotive supplier. Precision Micro is currently in production over 1.000.000 GDI solid body joints per month and delivers them worldwide, including to China, South America and the United States.
Against the background of this Growth forecast of the GDI market, Precision Micro anticipates an increase in solid-state joints sales generated with GDI customers by 25% in 2017 and 50% in 2018.
