HellermannTyton, a global leader in designing and
manufacturing fastening solutions for the automotive
industry, wanted to improve upon the bent steel plate it was
using to fabricate a complicated seat fastening device for a
leading automotive manufacturer.
First, sheet metal
restricts design flexibility, and different automotive OEMs
request different attachment configurations for the part, so it
becomes extremely time-consuming to design and fabricate
multiple variations in metal.
Avient’s materials and technical support enabled us to re-
create a complicated part in nylon resin, which not only solved
cost, time and weight issues, but also provided a unique
offering for our automotive OEM customers,” said Spiess.
