Manufacturing Ease - ECCOH XL 8148 solutions enable fast processing speeds compared to alternatives and can be extruded using existing machinery.

Working closely with the producer, the Avient team recommended customizing a high density, engineered material formulation as an alternative to metal.

When Avient proposed re-engineering the yoke with an alternative composite material, Bettcher was receptive, but needed evidence that a polymer solution would retain the reliable performance its customers demanded.

THE SOLUTION In the course of their research into material options, the manufacturer’s team invited Avient to suggest options for an alternative TPV based on its global reputation for superior products and service.

THE SOLUTION The supplier’s design team approached Avient in hopes of finding an alternative material that could replace leather yet eliminate processing issues.

Laser welding is a good alternative to chemical adhesives or mechanical assembly as it provides high-quality seams with minimal mechanical stress, no surface damage, and minimal flash and particle development.
