11 Agenda Who we are Our main market: The car industry Opportunities for the aluminum casting industry Summary 12

12 What requests the market? 13

13 Internal combustion engine (ICE)/ Engine block 2005: more than 25 LPDC machines in use for production of 500,000 engine blocks per year (low pressure) 2017: more than 25 HPDC machines in use for production of 6,000,000 engine blocks per year (high pressure) 14

14 Body applications Example Audi A8 (2017) Multimaterial Audi Space Frame Hybrid-Structure out of steel, aluminum, magnesium and growing share of aluminum components 15

15 Structural body parts/ Components Made out of one part/ casting, no more additional complexity Substitution of complex multilayer designs High pressure die casting for achieving cost advantages competitve Weight: 5,7 kg Weight: 2,8 kg Weight: 4,0 kg 16

16 Chassis parts Highly complex components: Made in one casting (LPDC) no more steel assemblies Up to 50% weight savings compared to ealier designs Corrosion resistant alloys Highest design flexibility Weight: 18,5 kg Weight: 3,6 kg 17

17 E-Motor housings Highly Complex Castings in LPDC, strong trend towards HPDC visible Highly complex castings in LPDC, strong trend towards HPDC visible 18

18 Battery package High pressure die casting Clamping forces of 4000T and higher Integrated cooling 19

20 Agenda Who we are Our main market: The car industry Opportunities for the aluminum casting industry Summary 21

21 Summary The trend towards light weight cars in order to reduce the CO 2 emissions offer additional business potential for aluminum castings suppliers. Body and Chassis applications offer significant growth potential for the casting industry, substituting welded and assembled steel constructions. E-mobilty is not a thread for the casting industry, it is just another opportunity for additional growth. 22
