Metal Substitution and Weight Reduction
True everyday heroes - carrying arms for clothes dryers
The company JUWEL made it to their mission to produce high quality products for garden and household. Their product range of clothes driers extend from small driers up to big rotary colthes driers.
Driving down costs and reducing weight has been a critical objective for household applications. One of the most effective ways of achieving this is to substitute metal with plastic.
AKRO-PLASTIC produces a 50% glass fibre reinforced, semi-aromatic polyamide blend with very high stiffness and strength, even in conditioned state. These products typically aim for metal replacement applications.
