CAIP Group and KraussMaffei signed a long-term strategic cooperation agreement on July 29, broadening their existing supplier-customer relationship into a joint technology and industrial-development partnership covering collaborative research, manufacturing processes and commercialization of new component solutions.
The partnership combines CAIP's experience developing and producing automotive interior and exterior components with KraussMaffei's expertise in injection molding, extrusion and reaction-process machinery, focusing on three areas: lower-carbon lightweight components, modular product development and more precise manufacturing.
The two companies see closer coordination among materials, production equipment and forming processes as essential to making components lighter, more sustainable and easier to manufacture at scale, with modular vehicle production named as another prospective area of cooperation and KraussMaffei continuing to promote an integrated materials-machinery-application approach.
