More Freedom Thanks to Polymer Materials
Polymer materials play an important role in Bosch products for automotive systems and power tools. These materials range from soft gels that protect sensitive electronics subjected to harsh environmental influences over elastomer sealings ...
Plastics for all kinds of applications
Bosch researchers are using the latest injection molding techniques to mount electric circuits on plastic components. Simulations are helping the scientists to set the injection molding machines at the optimal operating point, while impact testing is enabling them to eliminate weak points in the design of the housings.
