Application:
Automotive Smog Diagnostic Sensor Components


Material:

Modified PPO with 15% glass reinforcement
PBT Polyester with 30% glass reinforcement


Tooling:

Three cavity family mold, complete with slides in Hasco base 


Customer Requirements:

Low production tooling in 10 weeks ARO
Innovative part and mold designs to keep costs low and future design changes optional
Form, fit, and function to insure 'clamp' fits 'collar'


Our Approach:

C2 provided a family mold option with runner shutoffs so parts could be run in different quantities and in different resins with one set-up. Concepts 2 provided a product design change that allowed the 'handle' to be a single cavity, based on symmetrical halves, thus eliminating a part cavity in the mold.
