The FASTEEL project focuses on developing a new tool steel that enhances the production of lightweight automotive components. By improving thermal conductivity and material properties, it enables the use of advanced materials, which can significantly reduce vehicle weight and emissions.
Since the mid 80’s, vehicle weights have increased despite the importance of vehicle weight on driving dynamics, agility, and fuel consumption.
Consumers have been more interested in larger, cheaper cars rather than weight reduction.
The trend of ever-increasing weight for cars has been curtailed in recent years, predominantly motivated by CO2 emissions targets and correlated penalties, through the increased use of plastics and advanced steel alloys.
It has been demonstrated that use of these li…
