Inside a cosmos electric vehicle design concept innovation

In the K 2016 plastic industry exhibition, a strong secret new electric vehicle design concept. Close cooperation and design a cosmos school student and auto industry partners, pioneering and innovative plastic technology based on the idea of making. This visionary concept will be presented in the form of a modern electric car, in line with current design trends, including streamlined front, innovative full use display lights, like polycarbonate wraparound glass assembly and sustainable coating and adhesive system.

"Our idea is helpful to develop electric, make a significant contribution to climate protection," said a cosmos for Innovation Management Committee, Dr. MarkusSteilemann, "these achievements to break the limits for the design, comfortable, powerful and fuel-efficient cars provide new compelling solutions that allow us to show customers improve product design the function, integration, enhance profitability and achieve sustainable development. "

Reshaping automotive lighting

Automotive lighting is entering a new dimension, the use of light-emitting surface instead of headlights and car lights: now the light itself is a kind of modeling elements, rather than a lamp component. "Now the car designers can design special front and rear, including uniform integration of sensors, antenna, signal lamp and components," project manager JochenHardt said, "consumers want car styling and exquisite fashion, the automaker wants to show the unique characteristics and distinctive brand design. "

Holographic display may be the future of automotive lighting technology. To Hella supplier, a cosmos has developed a full display image as innovation based solution, using this scheme, a variety of lighting functions can be integrated into body components. This solution takes up very little space and opens up new possibilities for lighting as a design project.

Another trend is the smooth homogeneous appearance, it is far more than beautiful, can reduce the vehicle resistance, thereby reducing energy consumption. This design can also increase the number of electric vehicles can travel mileage. In order to help reduce the resistance, a concept car in the cosmos with other elements, to improve its aerodynamic effect.

Omnidirectional vision

Open glass assembly made of transparent polycarbonate with a wider field of vision. Surround glass assembly allows passengers to enjoy a panoramic view, because it is almost no blind spots, so it can improve pedestrian safety.

This design concept also makes use of the new development of coatings and adhesives. The coatings are made from biomass and 70% of the carbon content is from plants. The coating made of this kind of raw material can achieve the same performance as the traditional coating, even in some cases, the performance is better. The most important thing is that it is conducive to environmental protection.

Another kind of hardening agent can make plastic car parts to realize low temperature spraying. In the medium term, this technology will be the first to achieve simultaneous spraying of plastic, composite and metal parts. Koth Chong also developed the raw material for the transparent adhesive, which can meet the application requirements more complex.

Combination of materials and design

A close partner with all the cosmos to start new car concept of cooperation. For example, the company invited the famous Swedish Yu Mozhen Institute of design and the northern Finland design company students came to the benefit of things. The project focuses on polycarbonate material solutions, designed to transform the existing aesthetic and material patterns, the development of novel design and functional concepts, to meet the future driver's dream.

50 years ago, is still a cosmos Bayer's operation, in the plastic exhibition launched the first plastic car body K67. Since then, the company continued to challenge the limit, bringing innovative material solutions. Other milestones of the company include the introduction of headlamps and polycarbonate automotive glass assembly, water filler and raw material for tread base coating, and low solvent polyurethane varnish. .
