Airbags are manufactured and stitched using special threads called airbag sewing threads in automobile applications. These threads are designed to adhere to the exacting performance and safety standards of airbag systems.
The following are some essential qualities and traits of airbag sewing threads:
Airbag sewing threads must adhere to strict safety requirements, such as those established by organizations like the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in the United States or organizations of a similar nature in other nations.
To ensure their proper usage and use in the airbag manufacturing processes, manufacturers of airbag sewing threads often provide detailed product information and recommendations.
The Global Airbag Sewing Thread market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
PFAFF, a company that has over 140 years of experience in the sewing machine business, has introduced the PFAFF 3791 Premium, a post-bed machine with docu-seam technology. The Docu-seam systems are quality control tools for recording safety seams, mostly in the airbag and automobile industries.
The machine can also be used to sew the steering wheel’s impact absorbers. The PFAFF 3791 Premium ensures flawless performance of the stipulated breakage point on the reference seam from which the airbag unfolds in the event of a serious incident.
The machine has features including a programmable stitch length, thread tension monitor, differentiable wheel feed and roller presser foot, automatic thread tension device, real-time monitoring of thread force, and a touch screen control panel that enables free label creation.
According to Hyundai, the Exter will come standard with six airbags (driver, passenger, curtain, and side). Hyundai asserts that the Exter is the first vehicle under four meters in length to come standard with six airbags, even though this regulation will apply to all passenger vehicles in the coming months.
Additionally, it has a dashcam up front with two cameras and, in more expensive models, a reverse camera. When it first goes on sale, the Exter might even be the least expensive vehicle with six airbags as standard.
ESP, hill assist control, three-point seat belts with reminders, rear parking sensors, ABS, and EBD, among other standard safety equipment, will also be included in the Exter’s higher specification levels.
