Team’s Experiences

The team has gained extensive experience in fiber composite lightweight design over the past 2 decades. In the process, we have worked at renowned university institutions and listed automotive suppliers. The following high-performance components are exemplary representatives of highly complex carbon structural components.

Full CFRP wheels (OEM Automotive)

Lighter, stronger and more efficient: Full CFRP wheels are a major benefit for performance cars and electric vehicles. Several applications have been launched in the last years and the market is constantly growing.

Full CFRP wheels (OEM Motorcycle)

Pushing the limits of lightweight engineering for motorcycles. Huge contribution are the full carbon wheels. Super lightweight and yet super safe.

Stabilizer Audi R8

Although not visible from the outside, the carbon stabilizers provide a major contribution to driving performance. From an engineering perspective an extremely challenging product, as a defined stiffness has to be maintained over lifetime with enough safety margin for strength.

Road legal Full Carbon wheels for various brands have been a major brake through for bikers with sporty driving style. Finally everyone could benefit from improved handling performance and safety.

Motorbike handlebar Louis

Worlds first road legal carbon handlebar for motorbikes. Designed for improved damping behaviour and massive weight saving. All regular tests have been passed for certification.

InEco full CFRP electric vehicle

Pioneering electric mobility already 10 years ago: In 2013 the result of the InEco project was on display at IAA in Frankfurt: a fully driveable electric vehicle containing several innovations such as CFRP crash elements, a lightweight hybrid material chassis and a CFRP bonnet.

Hybrid CFRP wheel for city busses with DVB

No limits in terms of wheel load: With the pilot project of Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe the capability of CFRP wheels for heavy duty applications has been proven. All legally required tests were passed with the most lightweight wheel for commercial vehicles, which allowed for real life testing in service on public roads.

Advanced Engineering Projects

Advanced engineering projects to proof feasibility and opportunities of structural CFRP components, such as:
