Introduction of Fiber Fabric Composite (Insulated) Air Ducts in Automotive Manufacturing Industry

Application development of Durkduct fabric ducting in the automotive manufacturing industry

The application of Durkduct fabric duct in the automotive manufacturing industry has been developed since 2008, from industry benchmarks, foreign-owned factories to domestic-owned factories, and from whole vehicle and component manufacturing plants to other automotive accessories light industrial plants.

So far, all major engineering projects or benchmark enterprises in automobile manufacturing plants have chosen Durkduct fabric ducts.

Durkduct has a group of famous users worldwide, such as Volkswagen, General Motors, Ford, Renault, Fiat, Tesla, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, FAW, SAIC, GAC, Dongfeng, and Geely, etc.

Until 2015, all automobile manufacturing industry projects only used Durkduct N series fiber fabric duct in the secondary air supply duct of the air conditioning system, to fully reflect its unique characteristics, such as low space position line (point) air supply, energy-saving, environmental protection, easy installation, and oil resistance, etc.

Since 2014, the I series insulated Durkduct fabric duct, which is the unique research and development of Durkduct, has been fully promoted in the market.

It has been successfully applied in the primary air supply duct system of automobile manufacturing plants since 2015, including Jiangling, General Motors, Faurecia, FAW Toyota, BAIC, Ford, Dongfeng Honda, Geely, GAC Honda, and other projects.

Advantages of I series insulated Durkduct fabric duct

Compared with traditional metal ducts commonly used in primary air supply ducts, the advantages of the I series insulated Durkduct fabric duct are more obvious:

Lightweight, faster installation speed

The I series insulated Durkee fabric duct system has a 100% factory prefabrication rate and on-site modular assembly, which is light in weight, requiring only slide bars or steel cables to hang, with zipper splicing, greatly improving the quality of the project, shortening the construction period, and reducing the overall cost of the project.

Dual insulation, overall increase in thermal resistance value

The I series insulated Durkduct fabric duct is composed of a duct layer, an insulation layer, and an outer insulation layer, achieving a dual-layer insulation effect.

The integral composite insulation material has an infinite wet blocking factor, which can effectively prevent water vapor penetration, maintain the initial thermal conductivity coefficient, and have a better insulation performance. The thermal resistance value is comprehensively improved. The I series insulated Durkee fabric duct can effectively reduce cold and heat loss during the air conditioning air transmission process.

High strength and pressure resistance performance

Different from the easy shearing and pressure deformation of rectangular metal ducts, the I series insulated Durkduct fabric duct system adopts circular and elliptical shapes.

The I series insulated Durkduct fabric duct can reasonably convert internal pressure into transverse tensile force on the pipe wall, which can withstand 3000Pa-5000Pa or more pressure, far higher than the applicable range of traditional ducts below 2000Pa.

As the I series insulated Durkduct fabric duct system has been successfully applied in more and more primary air supply duct systems and return air duct systems,

Durkduct has become the ideal supplier in the global fiber fabric duct industry that can truly provide a professional product of air conditioning duct with a full range of professional solutions.
