Under-the-hood components operate in very harsh environment and severe conditions, mechanical and thermal load are generally very high as well as the risk of chemical aggression. For these reasons molded components must be free of residual stresses as much as possible.
That’s why, here at Oerlikon HRSflow, we developed an exclusive design for processing high performance materials with any content of glass or carbon fiber (short and long). The result are robust, lightweight and functional engine parts designed to withstand extreme operating conditions.
