To coincide with its 25th anniversary, Morgan Polymer Seals announced today a 35,000 square foot expansion of its primary manufacturing plant in Tijuana, Mexico. The expansion, slated for completion on June 1st, will help meet the rapidly growing demand for quality elastomeric seals efficiently manufactured on-shore in North America.
Read MoreWe’re pleased to offer you another technical White Paper, written by our very own Design Engineer, Thomas Morgan. Here are just a few of the key insights you’ll learn gain inside the pages:
Why Finite Element Analysis a critical step in designing quality rubber gaskets and seals
Best practices for Material Testing
How to work with Approximatation Equations
Read MoreVitesco, formerly Continental Automotive, tasked Morgan Polymer Seals to manufacture and deliver T76 filter plates, with the expectation of zero defects. The filter plates feature a black rubber seal design on a black plastic carrier gasket, making defects hard to detect with the human eye.
Read MoreWhen automated vision inspection became a much-desired approach to achieving zero PPM, most manufacturers purchased turnkey vision inspection systems to inspect their finished goods. But at Morgan Polymer Seals, we’ve developed our own line of automated vision inspection machines.
Read MoreVision inspection is a computer-aided visual analysis of manufactured parts to sort out any with defects, irregularities, or other quality control issues. Unlike manual inspection that relies solely on human hands and eyes, automated vision inspection employs a mechanical system of high-speed cameras, software, and automation hardware components to inspect each part thoroughly and quickly.
Read MoreGeneral Motors (GM) tasked Morgan Polymer Seals to collaborate with Illinois Tool Works (ITW) to design a mechanical seal for a new capless refueling system in the Cadillac CT6. The custom seal system had to reduce hydrocarbon emissions, seal on the fuel fill-nozzle, and remain flexible at a temperature down to -40°C. To avoid a larger redesign of the car’s body, the sealing system also had to fit within the sedan’s existing size constraints.
Read MoreSelecting the best raw material for an automotive gasket is paramount to manufacturing a quality seal at a competitive price. An expert seal designer thoroughly understands the key attributes of their polymers and draws from industry experience with automotive systems to select the best material.
Read MoreDesign validation is a critical step to developing a successful gasket or seal. At this stage, a design engineer confirms that the final product will function properly within the sealing application. To validate critical seal designs for automotive applications, savvy engineers have adopted Finite Element Analysis (FEA).
Read MoreRubber gaskets and seals are critical components in the mechanical systems for automotive and industrial applications. At Morgan Polymer Seals, we follow these eight stages in the seal design process.
Read MoreThis white paper provides an overview of common molding processes for high-precision gaskets and seals.
Read MoreMorgan Polymer Seals confirmed today that they have doubled the amount of safety stock kept at their manufacturing plant in Mexico and their logistics broker in San Diego. The company took this action to ensure continued 100% on-time delivery for their automotive customers, including Ford, GM, and Volkswagen.
Read MoreJavier López (Business Unit Leader), Fabiola Campos (Operations Manager), Isela Garcia (Admin Manager), Sam Gaxiola (Materials Manager), Mark Conlee (Dir of Engineering), and Sandra Martinéz (Head of HR), have all distinguished themselves with over a decade at Morgan Polymer Seals and we celebrate them this month.
Read MoreAmérica Morales leads our customer service team and has helped Morgan Polymer set new benchmarks for customer satisfaction in 2020.
Read MoreTo achieve the highest quality rubber molded gaskets and seals, we use high-efficiency rubber injection presses from Maplan, made in Austria. We’ve been using Maplan equipment since Kevin Morgan first started the company back in 1997, so it’s a privilege to be profiled in Maplan’s annual newsletter for 2020. Click to read the article.

Read MoreWe’re so pleased to be featured in the August 24 print edition of Rubber & Plastics News.
Read MoreMorgan Polymer Seals announced today the successful design and implementation of a specialized capless refueling seal, supplied to General Motors to eliminate fuel vapors from escaping the fill tube of their Cadillac CT6. Dubbed internally as the “mechanical seal,” this application was developed in collaboration with Tier 1 automotive supplier, Illinois Tool Works (ITW).
Read MoreCongratulations to Brenda Vega and Sandra Martínez for being featured in the July 27 print edition of Rubber & Plastics News. This special issue highlights the vital contribution of women in the rubber and tire industries and we are so pleased to have members of our leadership team included in the coverage.
