Gestamp has been developing technology to produce #aluminium alloys that have high #recycled content and still meet #market and #industry needs. Within the EU-funded SALEMA project, the company has provided researchers working on industrial process simulation, as well as figuring out how to adapt current industrial facilities for the optimal production of SALEMA’s new alloys with higher levels of recycled scrap. Coordinating these contributions was Juan José Matarranz, Gestamp’s Technology and Innovation Manager.
In the final year of the project, Gestamp also used SALEMA’s new alloys to make and test a ‘B-pillar’. This rigid car compartment acts as a safety-cage that protects passengers by absorbing energy in case of accidents. A critical component that needs reliable high-performance materials.
So what’s the significance of SALEMA? The project team took just a few minutes to get Juan José’s opinion.
