Solution
In order to be able to present the customer with an appropriate solution, it is necessary to produce a suitable sealing wiper EMR by means of prototype production. Despite the harder HPU compound of the prototypes, the function and ease of movement should correspond to those of a softer moulded part. By reducing the preload on the sealing and wiper lip and modifying the lip geometry, we achieve a satisfactory result for the customer.
