Cross-functional development teams deliver the best solutions
Working in cross-functional development teams comprising experts from all departments, Daetwyler Rubber can provide the best solutions, short lead times and total cost reduction. Co-engineering in partnership with our customers allows us to develop prototypes extremely fast using original materials.
State-of-the-art design tools
Our specialists draw on many years of engineering expertise, enhanced by state-of-the-art design tools (3D-CAD Inventor) and FE analyses. These are used to simulate movement and determine deformations, stresses and strains. This gives our customers the benefit of shorter development times and enables them to evaluate solutions before incurring costs for moulds and patterns.
True-to-life testing in a window test chamber
Daetwyler has a modern window test chamber for testing new seals and gaskets to current standards. Working together with our customers, we are able to assess new products for driving rain resistance, air leakage (A rating), deflection and wind load resistance based on all existing standards.
Certified and standardised product development
We use a standardised product development process certified to ISO 9001. The main phases are:
List
- Identifying the customer’s wants and needs
- Providing technical advice
- Designing the profile and specifying the material
- Making the extrusion die and reference samples
- Testing and approval by the customer
- Starting mass production
