Turbocharger demonstrator highlights:
- High design freedom
- Strong focus on the part functionality
- Extreme shapes: hollow structures, unique double-wall construction design, very thin walls
- Topological optimization and possibility to integrate lattice structure
- Higher level of performance
- Increased air flow through the cylinders’ combustion chamber augments the engine power output
- Effective operation of the turbocharger thanks to increased thermal insulation
- Cost advantage
- High functional integration
- Integrating three single parts into one design
- Reduction of welding to attach double-walled heat shield
- Reduced leakage risk at the interface between the different parts
