We saw an untapped market opportunity for improved seat
fastening solutions and recognized that continuing to use bent
steel plate would hold us back,” said Hagen Spiess, Senior
Design Engineer at HellermannTyton.
HellermannTyton designers believed that engineered
thermoplastics were the answer.
THE SOLUTION
Avient recommended Bergamid™ B70 G30H black TM-X PA 6
resin with 30 percent glass fiber reinforcement for its excellent
mechanical properties and cost benefits.

• Replace aluminium alloy
• Reduce thickness and weight of fan blade
• Withstand 920 Pa of static pressure, high relative humidity
(90-95%), and max temperature of 104ºF
• Redesigned the 1600mm blade utilizing 3D modeling and
mold flow analysis services from Avient Design
• Simulated mechanical load to determine which new
design would provide optimal performance
• Increased strength using a carbon fiber grade, enabling
injection-moldable parts and streamlined production
• Reduced blade thickness to 35% of the original and
blade weight from 7.71 lbs to 1.76 lbs (77% decrease)
• Improved overall efficiency of fan with a thinner, lighter
blade that cuts through the air

Army Corps of Engineers’ Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) have recently developed a Modular Protective System (MPS) that features PolyOne’s GlasArmor™ continuous glass-fiber composite panels.
With our capabilities in hardware fabrication along with PolyOne’s knowledge of composite ballistic protection technology, we were able to create modular systems that reduce time and logistic requirements for our brave soldiers.”
