Tuesday is RUBBER DAY: End product ‘Bipolar plates’
Did you know that several hundred bipolar plates are used in the engine of a fuel-powered passenger car?
And did you know that on these bipolar plates, which are needed for the fuel cell technology, there are wafer-thin seals made of liquid silicone?
With the help of DESMA machines, the LSR, which usually consists of two components, is injected with high precision on both sides and vulcanized out. The size of the machines varies, depending on the size and number of inserts. This process can be fully automated with the aid of robotic systems.
