light-weight body panels for LOXO
Connova delivers glass-fibre reinforced light-weight body panels to LOXO
Connova has manufactured and supplied the body panels made of composite materials for the first prototype vehicle – the LOXO Alpha.
CFRP partition shells
No loss by eddy current flow by using CFRP
Using high-strength partition shells made of carbon-reinforced plastics instead of metal, the loss of efficiency in high-speed rotating machinery with a magnetic coupling is minimized or even prevented.
The efficiency rate of pumps or engines can be increased by up to 25% compared to a traditional partition shell. As a further advantage a heating of the flow media is avoided as the power transmission takes place without any friction.
Further advantages:
- High media resistance
- High damage tolerance
- High burst pressure up to >100 bar
- High strength and stiffness
Our experience:
- Specialist for composite manufacturing for more than 20 years
- Design, testing, prototypes, and serial production out of one hand
- Ideally equipped for small and large series
- Specific consulting for different flow media and environmental conditions
- Proven quality and stable and repeatable processes
- Innovative solutions for partition shell applications
