This presentation will explore the in-situ polyurethane (PU) overmolding of injection-molded and composite parts, allowing for direct out-of-mold class "A" surfaces. KraussMaffei we will review the process and equipment required. We will also discuss tooling types currently available for PU systems for this process. We will share the pros and cons of this technology over currently-available coating and painting systems. Finally, we will discuss current market trends, share examples of current in-production parts and share a new vehicle that will use this technology for the entire exterior of a vehicle.
