Engineered Polymer Formulations Thermoplastic Elastomers Auto-injectors and Drug Delivery Pens

THE CHALLENGE The automotive industry is increasingly turning to engineered thermoplastics to replace metal parts, thereby achieving benefits of lower weight for greater fuel efficiency, increased design freedom to incorporate larger numbers of sophisticated components, and lower costs from elimination of secondary fabrication steps. HellermannTyton designers believed that engineered thermoplastics were the answer. The new seat securement part has already been adopted by one OEM customer, and we are confident that other manufacturers will come to us for this lightweight, cost-efficient solution.”

Global automotive manufacturers seek lightweight materials to help them meet tough new regulations on CO2 emissions as well as their own goals for sustainability. Demonstration parts made with reSound NF reinforced materials will be on display at both the VDI Plastics in Automotive Engineering conference and trade show in Mannheim, Germany and the NPE 2015 exhibition in Orlando, Florida.    Parts molded by Fraunhofer)

Avient Design is a group of highly experienced industrial designers and project engineers. Engineered Polymer Services Avient’s Foaming Prediction Service uses 3D simulation software to help predict weight reduction, cycle time, and the mechanical properties of automotive parts foamed with Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents.
