Automotive Industry Applications

· Supercritical Physical Foaming Technology:

This technology uses an inert gas in a supercritical fluid state as the physical blowing agent, eliminating the need for chemical blowing agents and minimizing chemical residues. It can improve product stiffness and impact resistance while enabling significant weight reduction. For equivalent component weight, the foamed structure can achieve approximately 1.1–1.5× greater wall thickness, while also enhancing thermal insulation. This makes supercritical physical foaming an important technology for lightweight automotive components.

· 3D Vacuum-Assisted Molding Technology:

Designed for three-dimensionally curved automotive air ducts, this technology uses vacuum applied at the end of the mold after mold closing to guide the parison into the desired three-dimensional cavity position. It enables the production of flash-free molded components, reduces required clamping force, and eliminates the need for external diameter trimming, significantly reducing material waste and energy consumption.

· High-Efficiency, Low-Energy Extrusion Technology:

The extrusion system clearly separates the functional zones of the extruder, enabling rapid pressure buildup, efficient melt plasticization, and short-path high-shear processing while minimizing heat loss throughout the process. A direct-coupled motor and gearbox, combined with IKV forced feeding and servo drive technology, delivers optimized material conveying and extrusion efficiency, achieving approximately 3%–5% energy savings compared with conventional configurations.
