Hybrid parts are defined by the combination of different materials and/or manufacturing technologies. Several examples can identify the usage of hybrid concepts: adding metal inserts to plastic parts (therefore making the parts provide increased strength and resistance); adding soft type material to hard plastic (squeak and rattle avoidance, meet seal-off requirements); replacement of steel with aluminium and magnesium based alloys; replacement of metal components with composite counterparts. Further improvements are possible by upgrading from 2 k type concepts to 3–4 k hybrids and replacing multiple component assemblies with a single hybrid structure that may consist of plastic, (heavy/light) metal, composites, foam/textures. Present paper presents (i) a general concept that is being used to define new, innovative solutions addressing functionality required for components, and (ii) presents an actual example of a part that was redesigned and optimized, achieving increased performance, lower cost, and reduce weight.
