HellermannTyton, a global leader in designing and manufacturing fastening solutions for the automotive industry, wanted to improve upon the bent steel plate it was using to fabricate a complicated seat fastening device for a leading automotive manufacturer. First, sheet metal restricts design flexibility, and different automotive OEMs request different attachment configurations for the part, so it becomes extremely time-consuming to design and fabricate multiple variations in metal. Avient’s materials and technical support enabled us to re- create a complicated part in nylon resin, which not only solved cost, time and weight issues, but also provided a unique offering for our automotive OEM customers,” said Spiess.
