Automotive industry

Harry Lucas supplies high-quality circular knitting machines for textile components in vehicles – such as knitted window seals or cable sheathing. These seals offer advantages over rubber profiles: They do not stick together, are durable and flexible. High-strength Kevlar hoses for cooling systems are also manufactured using Lucas machines. Thanks to their modular design, the machines can be optimally adapted to industry-specific requirements. The cooperation with renowned suppliers shows: Harry Lucas is a proven partner for innovations in automotive technology.
