Aluminium oil sump
The starting point was an aluminium oil sump.
The new material was to achieve the following advantages:
- Temperature resistance
- Lower weight
- Oil resistance
EVERYTHING COMES FROM JUST ONE IDEA –
COMBINED WITH THE BEST MATERIALS.
OUR SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR INDUSTRY
Now, everyday life is almost unimaginable without technical plastics. In many industries, the material has prevailed against materials like metal or glass – whether in the automotive industry, the food industry, in mechanical or plant engineering or medical technology.
We are aware that every industry has different requirements on technical plastics. As a result, we can help you find the right plastic. First select your industry from the following overview:

Plastic oil sump
The solution is an oil sump made of plastic, using a material designed
specifically for this application. Four critical arguments:
- Equal stiffness due to plastics applicable design
- Roughly 50 percent lower weight
- Wall thicknesses of 1.2 millimetres
- Semi-transparent material
Installation in the motor
It met the installation space requirements in the vehicle package.
The component has the following advantages:
- Lower weight = Easier to assemble
- High rigidity = Perfect fit on the sealing surface
- Semi-transparent material = Oil level visible at all times
Overall vehicle
The new oil sump helps to reduce the overall
vehicle weight and has proven its functional
reliability and stability in many applications.
