Plastic parts made for the automotive supply industry are often invisible to the eye, yet critical to a vehicle's function — ventilation ducts, hose fittings, air conditioning system parts among them. What sets these parts apart from other industries is the need for very high tolerance precision; in a system where dozens of parts are assembled in sequence, a deviation of even a tenth of a millimeter in a single part can cause an assembly problem or loss of function.
This precision starts at the mold design stage. Simulating correct material flow, optimizing cooling times and keeping mold surface quality high are prerequisites for consistent results in series production. At Verdi Plastik's own mold workshop, this process is kept under control by running the design-production-test cycle under one roof.
Air ducts produced for automotive air conditioning systems, for instance, are tested for both sealing and heat resistance — because their job is to keep passengers free from dust and climate effects.
