Why Pentek for Automotive Development?
Supply Chain Diversification
Build a manufacturing safety net into your automotive supply chain that you can turn to during line-down situations or unplanned disruptions.
Rapid Prototyping
Mitigate design risk through rapid iteration and prototyping in production materials without sacrificing development speed in your race to reach the automotive market first.
Jigs and Fixtures
Improve manufacturing processes to create greater automation and streamlined automotive component assembly with custom fixturing.
Quality Inspections
Validate part geometry with several quality documentation options. Digital inspection, PPAP, and FAI reporting are available.
Automotive Materials
Choose from hundreds of production-grade plastics along with fuel- and optical-grade silicone rubber. A range of metal materials for end-use components are also available through our 3D printing, machining, and sheet metal services.
What Materials Work Best for Consumer and Computer Electronic Components?
Liquid Silicone Rubber. Silicone rubber materials such as fuel-resistant fluorosilicone can be used for gaskets, seals, and tubing. An optical clarity silicone rubber is also available for lens and lighting applications.
Aluminum. This all-purpose metal used for light-weighting provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio and can be machined or 3D printed.
Thermoplastics. Choose from hundreds of thermoplastics including PEEK, acetal, or supply your own material. Maintain branding with custom colorant for qualified projects.
Aluminum. This material can be machined or formed through sheet metal fabrication to create housings, brackets, or other metal parts that need high strength and low weight are required.
