Fast cycle times are achieved with this process, and the process can be automated. The adhesive properties of thermoplastics enable the construction of sandwich panels and reinforcement of materials such as wood and metal through thermal lamination without requiring additional adhesives. By replacing the metal plate and integrating the Polystrand material into the molded part, the supplier saved 8 pounds of overall vehicle weight.
