Abstract
The automatic application of self-adhesive seals presents a particular challenge because the seals easily lose their shape and can be stretched or compressed under tension or pressure. However, in future an automated process will be available for applying self-adhesive seals directly to doors and bodies on vehicle production lines as a result of a partnership between 3M, the Fraunhofer IPA (Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation) and seal manufacturer GTG.
