Aerospace Aluminium Alloys at Jaguar Land Rover Gary Mahon Background Always at the forefront of automotive engineering, Jaguar Land Rover wanted to investigate the use of high-strength aerospace aluminium alloys in their vehicles. Use of these materials could reduce vehicle weight if used to replace steel, particularly for impact absorbing structures. How we were involved The team at Jaguar Land Rover brought our Materials Development team on board to provide expertise in the use of high-strength aluminium alloys from within the aerospace industry. We advised them on the merits of the various high-strength alloys and tempers available, as well as suggesting how these materials could be incorporated into automotive structures. Innoval’s involvement with Jaguar Land Rover on advanced high s
