Injection Molding Automation Auto Parts

‌Automotive plastic parts include, but are not limited to, bumper housings, dashboards, door trim panels, seats, air conditioning vents, etc. ‌

Automotive plastic parts are widely used in automobile manufacturing, mainly because they are light weight, low cost, easy to process and beautiful.

Here are some specific examples of automotive plastic parts and their functions and materials:

‌Bumper housing‌: The bumper housing is one of the external protective components of the car, which plays a role in buffering and energy absorption to protect the vehicle from damage in minor collisions. It is usually made of polypropylene (PP) because of its light weight and good corrosion resistance.

‌Instrument panel‌: The instrument panel is an important part of the interior of the car, used to display speed and other key information. Soft instrument panels are usually made of foamed polyurethane (PU), while hard instrument panels are made of injection molded polypropylene (PP).

‌Door trim panel‌: The door trim panel is the interior decoration of the car door, usually made of plastic, including door handles, window switches and other parts.

‌Seat‌: Plastic is a common material in the material of modern car seats, which can improve the comfort and durability of the seats.

In addition, there are many other plastic accessories on the car, such as various clips and fixings, front and rear lights, air intake grilles, rearview mirrors, etc. The selection and application of these plastic accessories are mainly based on their good comprehensive physical and chemical properties, insulation properties, corrosion resistance, aging resistance, processing properties and plasticity.
