Rain Sensor Ring
Benefit: Cost Saving, Increased Component Complexity
Main Forming Process: Conventional Processing
End Use Sector: Automotive
Material: Copper, Ferrous

Chemical Composition: FeCu
Production Volume per annum: 200,000

Requirements

Rain sensors are becoming increasingly common in modern vehicles as a safety feature. They require high precision and competitive cost.

Benefits

The complex geometry found in this item is usually impossible to manufacture via die compaction. However, the use of undercut technology with different tool levels allows the close approximation to the geometry of cast parts, with higher strength, better dimensional precision and competitive cost.

Component Specification

Weight (g): 36
