Functionally integrated parts (FIP)
LiteWWeight® Lotus connection geometry can be integrated into the injection molded part, which simplifies production, reduces costs and enables complete design freedom.
Advantages of FIP:
- Reduced cycle time
- Reduced costs due to the fast process and less parts to manipulate
- Higher Strength: With less material, higher strength can be achieved
- Easy one-sided access only assembly process # Geometric Simplification
- Connection geometry can be integrated into the part to connect
- Design freedom: different sizes such as long or large geometries are possible
- Form freedom: No rotational symmetry required
- Improved aesthetics: No fasteners are visible
Key Features:
- Optimized for Fibrous Materials: Specifically developed for fibrous components, the Lotus excels in integrating with textile structures, offering high strength and deep integration in the fibrous matrix.
- Rapid Installation Process: With a processing time of approximately 1 second, the Lotus provides a swift and efficient fastening solution, ideal for high-speed production environments.
- Invisible from the Opposite Side: Its innovative design leaves no markings on the opposite side, even in thin and sensitive materials, ensuring a clean and professional finish.
- One-Sided Installation: The Lotus requires access from only one side for installation, simplifying the assembly process and enhancing design flexibility.
- Versatile in Application: Suitable for connecting thin sheet metal to fibrous materials without pre-drilled holes, and available in several common thermoplastics, it offers broad applicability.
Application Examples:
- Headliner and Wheel Arch Liner: The LiteWWeight® Lotus fasteners are ideal for automotive applications, serving as an effective replacement for conventional fasteners in headliners, wheel arch liners, and heat shields.
