Long fiber composites, in particular, are well-suited for replacing metal, offering exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and the ease of injection molding, which can expand design options and streamline processing steps.
For more technical details on the structural performance of reinforced polymers using CAE, automotive design engineers may access material data and models for Avient’s fiber-reinforced solutions using Hexagon’s Digimat-MX Tool.
Collaboration with Hexagon and its Digimat Platform to more accurately predict part performance for fiber-reinforced thermoplastics.

Making the Switch from Metal to Plastic Using Long Fiber Thermoplastics
Long fiber thermoplastics (LFT), also known as long fiber reinforced thermoplastics (LFRT), are revolutionizing the industry by replacing metal and other underperforming polymers.
Below are two real-world examples to demonstrate the benefits of converting to long fiber composites in very practical terms.
