Compression transfer molding and compression molding are related processes, but they are not the same. However, compression transfer molding can be considered a variation of compression molding with some key differences. Let's clarify the distinctions between these two processes, and watch a video that shows our compression transfer molding process in action.
Read MoreElastomer grommets and fastener seals are critical components in automotive design, providing sealing and vibration-damping solutions in various applications. This article explores the definition, applications, benefits, and advantages of elastomer grommets and fastener seals in the automotive industry. Additionally, it presents a selection of high-performance elastomer types commonly used for these purposes.
Read MoreElastomer PIP automotive gaskets are specialized sealing solutions designed to provide effective sealing under challenging conditions in automotive applications. These gaskets are typically made of elastomeric materials, commonly known as rubber, which exhibit excellent elasticity, resilience, and chemical resistance.
Read MoreIn this article, we will examine the types of silicone electrical connectors, the manufacturing process, and their application in the automotive manufacturing.
Read MoreAt Morgan Polymer Seals, we manufacture carrier gaskets using a wide range of elastomeric materials, and we use steel, aluminum, or plastic as the carrier "backbone." This article discusses carrier gaskets for automotive manufacturing, including their properties, design considerations, and manufacturing processes.
Read MoreGM tasked Morgan Polymer Seals to collaborate with 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. This article looks at the design process and how successful seal design is achieved for an automotive application.
Read MoreA seal’s design has the highest impact on its overall cost and quality, so we enjoy supporting your technical team throughout the entire design process.
Let’s take a look at the timeline and steps involved for the successful design of automotive gaskets and seals.
Read MoreHere are just a few of the pre-mold, and post-mold capabilities that support the gaskets and seals we manufacture in Mexico.
Read MoreCompression molding is one of the lowest-cost molding methods with regard to tooling and equipment.
Read MoreOf significant importance in the effectiveness of the injection molding process are the capabilities of the injection press itself. In this article, we highlight some of the key equipment features that promote satisfactory injection molding for automotive gaskets and seals.
Read MoreInjection molding is one of the most popular processes for achieving high-quality and cost-effective gaskets and seals.
In this article, we explain the process and its key benefits for precision molding in Mexico.
Read MoreSome seals are relatively simple, made entirely of rubber. But sometimes a critical system requires sealing components that are more complex than a simple rubber seal.
In these situations, overmolding may be necessary to achieve optimal sealing performance for challenging applications.
Read MoreIn rubber gasket molding, takeover tooling is when an OEM/manufacturer switches to a different supplier and continues using the same tool, or mold, used by their previous supplier to produce the part with a new supplier.
Read MoreWe’re pleased to offer you another technical White Paper, written by our very own Design Engineer, Thomas Morgan. This paper explains how to interpret the results of elastomer analysis in sealing applications.
Read MoreMorgan Polymer Seals announced today its expansion into markets beyond automotive with new contracts to supply the Ag / Construction and Electric Vehicle segments.
Read MoreWe’re pleased to offer you another technical White Paper, written by our very own Design Engineer, Thomas Morgan. This paper covers the scenarios that are typically required for a proper and complete design process of sealing elastomers.
Read MoreMorgan Polymer Seals announced today the innovation of its in-house vision inspection technology for a Volkswagen filter plate seal used in a vehicle’s Transmission Electro-Hydraulic Control Module (TECHM).
Read MoreTo 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.
