New edition of our popular RubberDay series – this time focusing on washing machine seals

RUBBER DAY – End product: Washing machine seals

Did you know? Most well-known washing machines contain technology that was developed on a DESMA injection molding machine.

It catches the eye as soon as you open the porthole: the door seal – usually in a subtle light gray. This component is crucial, because a leaky seal would have fatal consequences. That’s why leading manufacturers rely on the precision and reliability of DESMA machines. Stable processes and precise control of production parameters ensure consistently high quality seals. Each individual parameter can be assigned to the finished component – for complete documentation and maximum transparency in production.

Why elastomers are indispensable in washing machines:

• 🌀 High elasticity – adapts perfectly to moving parts

• 💧 Reliable sealing – prevents leaks even under continuous stress

• 🔥 Resistant to chemicals and heat – ideal for detergents and hot water

• ⏳ Durable and abrasion-resistant – for years of use without loss of quality

• 🤫 Vibration-damping – ensures smooth running during spinning

• 🧩 Variety of shapes thanks to injection molding – enables complex, precisely fitting components

And that’s not all: every washing machine contains numerous other elastomer components, from connecting hoses to vibration-damping elements, which are manufactured using DESMA technology.
