Automotive exterior
2 K Rear Panel

Our Solution

For the production of the smart 2K rear panel  - composed by a PC+ABS frame overmolded with PMMA or alternative PC -  a special hot runner solution from Oerlikon HRSflow is used.

During the first injection phase a hydraulic 2 drops system from Oerlikon HRSflow is used while for the second one a Single nozzle from Ga Series is employed. The part is finally decorated with a capacitive and aesthetic film directly in the mold for an innovative result. To implement such complex requirements, exact rheological analysis calculations were necessary.
