Hydro
Forming
DRG
hydro forming technology is widely used for functional buttons,
switches and nameplates. Highly durable, the solution consists of
injecting hot oil into a cavity that then dries to form a long lasting
solution. Because it does not fracture easily or stress materials,
hydro forming is a reliable solution for numerous applications.
Features
and Benefits
|
Exceptional durability-meets rigorous durability tests |
|
Flexible design-used on a variety of products across industries |
