Auto Exterior Parts Mould Certified injection molders can determine the right polymer based on performance requirements, production process, and design of automotive part geometry to maximize key benefits, including:
Safety/Crash Performance
Despite the many recent innovations involving automotive plastic components, safety remains a major factor in selecting engine and driveline components. The polymer must prove to be highly effective in minimizing vehicle intrusion and extrusion, and has passed a wide range of other automotive testing standards. Innovations in plastics are powerful enough to keep up with rapid advances in automotive safety.
Fuel Efficiency/Lightweight
Unlike most metals, plastic combines high rigidity with low weight. Continued development of new polymers for automobiles allows OEMs to regularly replace heavy-duty steel with lightweight plastic parts with high performance, low specific gravity, and greater fuel efficiency. Automotive plastic components can also improve the performance of on-board crash and performance systems.
