Component Fit & Assembly

Perfect Fit from Saint-GobainEnsuring Component Fit

Today's most commercially successful products are built to last, enjoyable to use and are economic to assemble. Perfect Fit is vital in delivering on market expectations. Our solutions are developed so engineers can introduce the ideal tolerance compensation into every design to ensure the best possible fit between mating components.

Assembly, Optimised

Easier and more efficient assembly of components saves both time and money during manufacturing. Combining advanced materials in unique and innovative ways, while using versatile parts and materials designed to facilitate assembly, enables the manufacturing process to be optimised. Streamline your assembly and make cost and efficiency gains by choosing Saint-Gobain.

 

AUTOMOTIVE

Saint-Gobain designs products for Automotive applications that optimise the way components fit together and enable efficient and simplify assembly processes.

BICYCLE

Saint-Gobain works closely with Bike manufacturers to adapt designs and develop and test prototypes to enable a perfect fit and efficient assembly.

HARD DISK DRIVE

Saint-Gobain's RENCOL® Tolerance Ring solution enables a more consistent, straightforward and cost efficient assembly than alternatives such as set screw and adhesive while minimising failure rates.

RESIDENTIAL HVAC

The compressor is the heart of an Air Conditioning unit. Within the compressor, a bearing provides a controlled coefficient of friction surface between a rotating shaft and its housing.

E-PAINTING

E-Painting (e-coating) is a process of evenly and quickly coating structures in paint by using electric charge to bond the paint to the structure. For all parts of a given structure to be coated, they need to be electrically conductive.

TOLERANCE COMPENSATION OF NORGLIDE®

A mark of quality in any product is the ability to perform consistently from part to part. This is how a company can build a brand by having a consistent and smooth feel when parts are actuated.

About Saint-Gobain

Saint-Gobain designs, manufactures and distributes materials and solutions which are key ingredients in the wellbeing of each of us and the future of all. They can be found everywhere in our living places and our daily life: in buildings, transportation, infrastructure and in so many industrial applications.
