Car safety: a subject that has always been in the spotlight as a continuously evolving sector. A few days ago, the EU’s new safety regulations for the automotive industry took effect.
Vehicles must comply with new construction and safety standards. For this reason, a few months ago, one of our customers contacted us and asked for a mould for a new component that will be used in the construction of heavy vehicles and which will help ensure greater safety during the molding phase.
Our team analysed the case in detail and designed a mould that 100% meets the customer’s needs.
Customer enquiry
In two words, customers asked us for reliability and practicality. This mould for a technical rubber item is used to produce a large number of components and it must endure over time. In addition, the mould must be a support in the stage of extracting the technical rubber product from the mould. In this way, our customers would be able to reduce production time and deliver moulded products faster.
The solution
Our team carefully considered the customer’s requirements when designing and manufacturing the mould. The final result is an injection mould made of particular and hardened steel. In addition, we have created a special tool to assist the operator during the extraction of technical rubber item from the mould. The key strength of the mould? It ensures quick and easy removal of the workpiece.
The automotive sector is a dynamic sector and is developing rapidly. As a consequence, automotive companies must always keep pace with innovations and new market needs. At O.C.S., we are aware that safety is an important prerogative for car manufacturers. For this reason, we are very proud to be able to contribute, with some of our moulds for technical rubber articles, to the safety of new vehicles that are currently in production.
If you have any questions or you would like to know more about the moulds for technical rubber items please don’t hesitate to contact us for a direct consultation with our O.C.S. team!
