With few exceptions, Parker sealing solutions are found on just about every modern internal combustion vehicle in operation. There are reasons for that: Design expertise, material science leadership, manufacturing excellence and a culture of continuous improvement of our processes.
Parker's engineering leadership and long history of process and manufacturing expertise gives today's EV OEMs a leg up with speed to market and overcoming challenges relating to lightweighting, EV module cooling, and assembly.
From production to storage and transportation of hydrogen to applications using hydrogen as an energy source, different requirements have to be taken into account: performance at cryogenic temperatures, resistance to pressures of 1000 bar and more, low leakage and long service life are just a few of the many possible requirements that are placed on a sealing system in a hydrogen application. A reliable sealing system that is easy to assemble is a prerequisite for avoiding problems in the application.
Our high volume manufacturing expertise includes quality static seals for:
Non-Linear Finite Element Analysis – MSC MARC Mentat
Parker utilizes state of the art Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate a component subjected to pressure and fatigue to quickly provide a data base to evaluate stress, deformation and other application parameters extremes which influence design.
EOC/TOC
EV Cooling & HVAC Connections
Bonded slimline seals combine the function of a rubber seal such as an O-ring with that of a metallic washer in one bonded washer component. Their use aids in removing operational inefficiencies associated with component assembly and installation, and lessening warranty and rework costs associated with quality mistakes where visual inspection cannot assure the seal has been installed.
We provide products and services that consistently meet customer expectations of quality and value. A central element of our culture is an unwavering commitment to quality and continuous improvement.
