In the automotive and aerospace industries, efforts are rapidly advancing in material development and manufacturing technology aimed at improving fuel efficiency and reducing carbon dioxide emissions through further weight reduction. This seminar will provide an easy-to-understand explanation for beginners about the trends in new material development at advanced companies that are energetically working towards ultra-lightweight solutions using lightweight materials such as carbon fiber, aluminum, and ceramics. It will cover various additive manufacturing (AM) and manufacturing technologies, as well as product examples that utilize these materials, including complex shape integration that is impossible with conventional processing methods, lattice/honeycomb structure fabrication, porous structure fabrication, and topology optimization using 3D printers. The lightweighting of parts that can significantly differentiate from conventional and competitor components is an urgent and critical issue, with intense technological development competition occurring both domestically and internationally. 3D printers, which are seen as the next generation of part manufacturing, offer a completely new perspective on AM technology, enabling the creation of innovative and attractive lightweight parts that are difficult to achieve with traditional processing methods, while also realizing short-term, low-cost, and high-quality manufacturing. Development cannot be expected to progress along the lines of existing technologies. By merging lightweight materials with 3D printing and utilizing topology optimization, astonishing weight reduction of parts can be achieved. We encourage you to take on this challenge.
