Precise parts for
advanced technology
The development and engineering of liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and thermoplastic
sealing solutions are key to the growth of electrification. The exceptional heat
resistance, low temperature flexibility, and electrical insulation properties of LSR, in
combination with high quality bonding to thermoplastic components, enable
mobility companies to offer new designs and functions, driving the sector forward
to new and exciting innovations.
Applications
Datwyler is increasing its LSR and thermoplastic portfolio, producing customized multi component sealing solutions for a wide range of systems, including batteries, sensors, electric drive motors, power distribution units, high voltage connectors, and drivetrains. With the development of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), Datwyler’s proprietary materials and tooling will play a key role in advancing this technology further, as we work directly with customers to design, test, and produce complex parts precisely tailored for their application.
Datwyler’s LSR competence center
Datwyler advantages
- In-house tooling
Datwyler is one of the few global companies with a specialist in-house tooling center. This gives us full control over the production of LSR and thermoplastic components, resulting in shorter lead times and greater flexibility for our customers. - Simulation expertise
We pride ourselves on our years of experience in product and mold flow simulation, using the latest structural mechanical analysis and virtual molding technology. This results in multi-component parts produced in optimum processing conditions that fulfil all customer and application requirements. - Global support
From prototyping to full production, Datwyler has a worldwide network of facilities and experts. Whether it’s our competence center in Germany or our production plants in China and Mexico, we offer full support at every stage of your LSR journey. - Zero waste process
High-precision tooling and an in-house cold runner system for the injection molding process results in zero waste, improving production efficiency and product sustainability.

The engineering process is a core point of focus as the mobility industry transitions from ICE to electrification. Simulation and material development are two of the three elements that are fundamental to a successful project, but neither are possible without engineering itself. How a part or component is designed to achieve the desired functionality is crucial. In areas where commodity parts are no longer relevant, the level of expertise required to ask the right questions at the right time is very high.
