Innovative Solutions for Automotive Interior Bonding

Introducing you to our innovative bladder press specifically designed for the automotive interiors sector. Building upon the success of our woodworking VPS3000, we have incorporated several intelligent enhancements to streamline the pressing process and significantly reduce the pressing time. The VPS3000AT stands out from traditional bladder presses due to its unique features tailored to the automotive industry’s requirements. One of the key improvements we made is the integration of Infra Red Heating technology within the press dome. This cutting-edge addition enables rapid curing of heat-activated adhesives beneath various materials such as leathers, vinyls, and other fabrics commonly used in automotive interiors.

By harnessing the power of Infra Red Heating, the VPS3000AT efficiently heats surfaces to approximately 100 degrees Celsius.

This temperature is optimal for activating adhesives and ensuring strong and reliable bonds. With this advanced heating mechanism, the curing process is accelerated, enabling faster production cycles without compromising the quality of the final product. Our goal with the VPS3000AT is to revolutionize the automotive interiors sector by providing a reliable, efficient, and time-saving solution for pressing heat-activated adhesives. With this innovative bladder press, manufacturers can increase their productivity, reduce production costs, and deliver superior quality products to their customers.

In summary, the VPS3000AT combines the proven performance of our woodworking VPS3000 with intelligent enhancements specifically designed for the automotive interiors sector. The incorporation of Infra Red Heating technology allows for rapid adhesive curing, significantly reducing pressing time. Experience the power of advanced engineering with the VPS3000AT and elevate your automotive interiors production to new heights.

  • Air circulation fans in the dome to prevent heat build up in any “dead space” and spread the heat evenly even if IR is heating surface of the membrane
  • Thermostat sensor is situated on the table as a long wire to allow to position it exactly on the mould giving operator accurate temperature reading. Also as an option extra sensors may be added to prepare 2/3/4 moulds in one cycle
  • As an option we are installing a timer connected to the thermostat. This allows to shut off the heating after a set number of minutes and prevent, for example ‘over burning’ of the adhesive or fabric – leather may dry to quickly creating unwanted stretch marks on the surface
  • The option of 2mm or 3mm membrane. 2mm is much better for detailed moldings if there is a need for plenty of detail
