Application of Hydraulic Press in Automobile Interior Molding

Application of Hydraulic Press in Automobile Interior Molding

The automotive interior system is an important part of the car body. Its design workload accounts for more than 60% of the design workload of the entire vehicle. It is one of the most important parts of the car body, far exceeding the car’s appearance. Each vehicle manufacturer usually has a large automotive interior design team. These parts are not only decorative. Their functionality, safety, and engineering properties are rich and important.

Which subsystems of automotive interiors require hydraulic presses?

The ceiling system, other cab interior systems, trunk interior systems, engine compartment interior systems, carpets, etc., all require hydraulic presses.

There are many materials for automotive interior molding, but the materials for hydraulic molding are mainly divided into the following categories:

1. Thermoplastic materials (ABS, PP, TPO, etc.)
2. Thermosetting materials (phenolic resin)
3. Leather, artificial leather
4. Modified thermoplastic board materials (PP wood powder board, thermal PU board)
5. Rubber (NBR, EPDM, etc.)
6. Composite foam (EPP+TPO, PVC micro-foam, PU foam sheet)

There are several mainstream processes for automobile interior molding, namely:

1. Injection molding
2. Blow molding
3. Enamel skin molding
4. Vacuum molding
5. Hot pressing and laminating molding
6. Foaming process
7. Trimming process
8. Other processes (painting, heat sealing, etc.)

Hot pressing and laminating molding, foaming, trimming, and other processes (painting, heat sealing, etc.) all require hydraulic presses.

The car interior hydraulic press is designed for the automotive interior parts industry. It is suitable for hot pressing and trimming automotive interior decoration products such as ceilings, carpets, insulation materials, dashboards, door inner panels, armrests, etc.

The structure is simple. However, due to the different pressing processes of different interior materials, the press has ancillary requirements such as heating and exhaust. Later, according to the process requirements, an automated production line can be formed by a heating system, automatic loading and unloading devices, raw material ovens and exhaust equipment.

The tonnage of interior presses is mostly below 600T. Generally, the horizontal table is larger, and the precision requirements are lower than those of metal parts presses. Most of them adopt the mainframe structure of an integral frame or a split combined frame.

Zhengxi Intelligent Equipment Group can customize hydraulic presses to meet customer needs. The equipment structures are single-column press, four-column press, gantry structure press, integral frame press, and combined frame press. Tonnage: 20T-630T free choice.
