Cymat Technologies Partners with Global Automotive Manufacturer

Cymat Technologies Ltd. has taken a significant step in the automotive industry by entering into a partnership agreement with a prominent global Tier 1 automotive parts manufacturer. This collaboration marks a pivotal point in the development of cutting-edge automotive components designed to enhance both safety and performance.

The Collaboration

The partnership will focus on the design and manufacturing of proprietary lightweight components that absorb energy, a crucial feature for modern vehicles. This collaboration will utilize Cymat's innovative Stabilized Aluminum Foam (SAF), a unique material known for its lightweight and energy-absorbing properties. Working alongside its design partner, Tesseract Structural Innovations, Inc., Cymat has been instrumental in developing many prototypes for the automotive sector, aimed at meeting the rigorous demands of modern vehicles.

Cymat’s experience in manufacturing SAF will greatly benefit the collaboration, allowing for the production of advanced components with distinctive characteristics. However, to facilitate the assembly of these intricate parts, Cymat requires the expertise of its new partner, which specializes in creating complex aluminum extrusions essential for these designs.

Innovative Solutions Ahead

Both companies are collaborating closely to respond to a recent Request for Information (RFI) from a global automotive manufacturer, showcasing their commitment to fulfilling the industry's evolving needs. Cymat’s CEO and Chairman, Michael Liik, expressed his enthusiasm regarding the partnership, stating, "This collaboration completes the last piece of the puzzle needed to secure automotive contracts."

Liik highlighted that the new partner is not only an established supplier to major automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) but also has extensive connections throughout the global automotive market. This opens doors for Cymat and Tesseract to introduce their innovative materials and designs to a wide range of prospective automotive clients, enhancing their market presence.

About Cymat Technologies

Cymat Technologies Ltd. is a leader in the production of Stabilized Aluminum Foam, which is the result of a proprietary process involving the injection of gases into a molten aluminum bath mixed with ceramic particles. This groundbreaking material is not merely lightweight; it also fulfills several key functional requirements such as energy absorption, thermal insulation, and sound dampening.

Cymat markets the architectural variants of SAF under the brand name Alusion™, showcasing its applications in architectural design, while the automotive and military specifications are branded as SmartMetal™. These materials are particularly advantageous in industries that require high-performance components without the added weight, demonstrating the versatility and utility of SAF in modern manufacturing.

The Road Ahead

As the automotive industry continues to demand more from its suppliers—not just in terms of production capacity but also in innovation—Cymat’s partnership arrives at an opportune moment. The collaborative effort aims to not only meet current industry standards but to redefine them, offering lightweight and energy-efficient components that align with the industry's shift towards sustainability and safety.

Moving forward, Cymat and its partners plan to leverage their combined strengths to create unprecedented automotive solutions that will likely become industry standards in the near future. The partnership not only symbolizes the unity of expertise in design and manufacturing but also showcases the relentless pursuit of innovation in the automotive landscape. With this collaboration, the potential for groundbreaking advancements in vehicle safety and efficiency is immense, promising an exciting future for both Cymat Technologies and the automotive industry at large.
