Build Reliable Vehicles with Data-Driven Surface Control
Brighton Science partners with leading automotive OEMs and Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers to bring precision, consistency, and speed to adhesion processes.
As lightweighting, electrification, and advanced materials reshape the industry, controlling surface preparation is more critical—and more complex—than ever. Using quantitative water contact angle measurement, we help automotive manufacturers validate surface readiness in real time, reduce failures, and accelerate production, all without slowing the fast pace of automotive assembly.
Common Automotive Applications
- Set quantitative cleanliness specifications for RTV and FIPG sealing
- Verify surface quality for metal and composite bonding
- Validate polymer surfaces are optimally prepared for bonding, painting, or coating
- Optimize washer systems by determining when washer fluid should be changed
- Eliminate sealing failure for automotive headlights
- Validate coatings on electronics and cabling
- Develop surface cleanliness specifications for painting and priming
- Establish a quantifiable surface specification for materials from suppliers
- Understand the effects of aging and storage on surface quality
- Develop exact treatment levels for plasma and flame treatment
- Monitor surface cleanliness in battery manufacturing
