Automotive Industry Dehumidification

Munters provides specially engineered systems that allow the automotive industry to maintain temperature and humidity to the most precise specifications. Our products are used in a variety of applications.

Automotive Applications that Require Dehumidification

Some of the following applications require humidity control:

• Injection molding
• Car window manufacturing
• Paint and coating processes
• Environmental chambers
• Engine and brake testing
• Exhaust gas measurement testing
• Laminating, molding and fabrication processes
• Parts and materials storage

Automotive Components that Need Dehumidification

Automotive manufacturers need dehumidification systems when testing and manufacturing the following components:

• Safety glass
• Engines
• Tires
• Paint
• Airbags
• Plastic
• Metal parts

Effects of Uncontrolled Humidity

Uncontrolled Humidity in the Automotive Industry can cause:

• Condensation on automotive parts
• Corrosion problems
• Painting and coating failures
• Unreliable testing and environmental conditions

Solutions

Complete cars, engines, and parts are subjected to a large variety of testing in environmental chambers and wind tunnels. Munters enables automotive manufacturers to simulate any environmental condition, with dehumidification systems that can deliver air with a dew point as low as –94°F. Automotive manufacturers are trying to reduce the number of pollutants that are emitted into the atmosphere in exhaust gasses. Munters provides low dew point air that allows for consistent, accurate results for emission analysis. In industrial painting processes, cars and components are painted in environments under strict temperature and humidity levels. Especially when using water-based painting techniques, Munters technology can provide the ideal conditions in which to apply and dry paint.

Munters also provides automotive industry dehumidification systems that makes it possible to manufacture many of the parts that are used in this industry. Our equipment creates the proper environment for testing, production, and transportation of automotive components such as: safety glass, airbags, tires, and plastics, along with many other products. Humidity control for engine testing is one of the many solutions that our equipment can offer this industry.

Machinery and stored car components run the risk of corrosion; this destructive process is prevented by creating a low humidity climate. Once car components have been manufactured, they are transported by land and are protected within the truck/trailer using Munters dehumidifiers.
