How High-Volume Configuration Hoses Benefit the Automotive Industry

One of the latest advancements in the hot melt adhesive industry is high-volume configuration hoses that have the ability to apply adhesives at a higher rate than standard configuration hoses. One of the biggest beneficiaries of this advancement is the automotive industry, which has embraced the use of hot melt adhesives perhaps more than any other industry.

Hot melt adhesives are capable of creating strong bonds between car parts that are made of different materials and that will hold up over time. Not only are hot melt adhesives strong and versatile, but they can also help to speed up production, which makes the assembly line more efficient, helping to save money. The new high-volume hoses will only add to the ways that the automotive industry benefits from hot melt adhesives, particularly in the following areas.

Seats

Placing seats in a vehicle is one of the most important parts of car assembly, as the seats obviously need to stay in one place regardless of the wear and tear on the car. Being able to apply more adhesive at a higher rate helps to fasten seats into place faster during the assembly process. On top of that, hot melt adhesive also plays an important role in attaching any kind of cover or lamination on any of the seats. This process is an important part of the quality and the appearance of the seat, both of which can be enhanced by the use of hot melt adhesive.

Headliners

In terms of safety, the roof is one of the most important parts of a car. It’s the place where so many different pieces of the car come together, and so strong adhesive is necessary to keep everything in place. With so many importing pieces coming together, the assembly process for this part of the car can be complicated and time-consuming. However, with a more efficient, high-volume hose, the process can go a lot smoother and make a lengthy and complicated part of the assembly process go much faster without sacrificing quality or safety.

Upholstery and Carpeting

Modern cars are all about appearance and comfort, and so applying upholstery and carpeting inside every vehicle can’t be overlooked. Doing so requires high-quality adhesive, but the adhesive also needs to be applied quickly and efficiently. A high-volume configuration hose will help ensure that a vehicle’s carpet can be applied as fast as possible during assembly. Using a more efficient hose can even make it easier to use more high-quality fabrics, including leather, that can add to the look and feel of a car.

Trunk

The trunk is often forgotten about by car owners until they need it, but it’s an important part of the assembly process. Different types of vehicles can bring different challenges with regard to the loading floor at the bottom of the trunk as well as the trunk lining. However, strong adhesives and a high-volume hose can play an important role in proper and efficient assembly in this part of the car. No matter the technique or parts used to put the trunk and its lining together, a high-volume hose should be able to adapt and make the process go faster.

Insulation

The insulation in a car that helps to absorb vibrations and sets up the vehicle’s acoustics is dependent on strong adhesives. The sheet body of the car’s interior needs to be heavily coated with adhesives that bond to the vehicle’s insulation. A high-volume configuration hose can help to simplify and expedite this process as much as possible on the assembly line.
