NEW SEALING ELEMENTS MADE OF ELASTOMERIC MATERIALS TO MEET THE HIGH DEMANDS OF THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
Use of automated manufacturing as well as the call for more comfort and less fuel consumption are just some of the key requirements facing today's designers of new vehicles.
The elastomer industry has risen to this challenge and, through the implementation of innovative technologies, can now offer the vehicle designer a wide range of alternatives.
Developments in process engineering have made it possible not only to optimize the frictional resistance and anti-wear properties of the elastomer's surface, but also to vary the extrusion's section during actual production. In addition the industry supplies pneumatically controllable elastomeric extrusions with two stable phases, which are used, for example, on vehicle doors and radiator grilles.
