Many OEMs are expanding aluminum use from heat exchangers, wheels, drive shafts, engine blocks, hoods and deck lids to developing aluminum intensive vehicles (AIVs) by converting the body in white, or body structure, to aluminum. As OEMs use aluminum body structures to improve fuel efficiency, new joining and assembly methods are required.
