What's your gremlin?
[The gremlin] Water ingress is a hot topic in vehicle manufacturing due to the severity of the issues that can arise from it. These can include; increasing the weight of the vehicle, corrosion of metal components, rotting of plywood flooring, mould and bacteria build up and legal issues with passengers being exposed to slippery floors. Legionella Bacteria are commonly spread through airborne water droplets in vehicle air conditioning systems so it is imperative that water does not enter the systems of the vehicles in the first place.
The importance of flexibility in joint design
Total life Durability is a major factor that must be considered in the manufacture of transportation vehicles. Stresses and torsion have to be considered due to vehicle being regularly subjected to potholes, kerbs, reduced height accessibility mechanisms in its daily service life.
Is your issue just the tip of the iceberg?
Commonly witnessed small issues may seem relatively harmless on the surface but often this issue is just the tip of the iceberg. Here are some examples where simple solutions around flooring have avoided major issues for the end user and have helped to reduce huge warranty claims for our customers.
