Tupy presents a new concept in engine block to reduce CO2 emissions

André Ferrarese, Director of Tupy Tech, details the development of the solution at SIMEA 2022, which will be held on August 19, in São Paulo

Committed to the future of mobility and the decarbonization journey, Tupy has invested in research and development to find efficient and competitive solutions in partnership with research institutes, universities, customers, and other industry players. One of the recent results of this effort will be detailed this week at SIMEA 2022, where André Ferrarese, Director of Tupy Tech, will present a new concept in engine blocks. In addition to being lighter than aluminum, the alloy used in this component has all the other inherent advantages of cast iron.

UltraLight Iron, the new solution developed by Tupy, is a new perspective for applications in smaller engines powered by gasoline, ethanol, or hybrid vehicles. On top of better performance results, it contributes to lowering the carbon footprint in the entire vehicle cycle at lower costs.
