Description
This dataset represents the average production situation of the main instrument panel of passenger cars in China. The dataset considers the core production processes such as injection moulding, frame fixing, mould-clamping pouring, foaming and curing, surface adhesive spraying, fabric adhesive spraying and drying, as well as the raw and auxiliary material acquisition and input (modified plastics, paint, etc.), energy supply, and direct emissions and process waste generation in the related auxiliary processes (such as waste treatment); it does not include product packaging, the manufacture of production equipment, and infrastructure construction such as plant buildings; the inventory has been supplemented and verified according to the principles of material balance and water balance. The data are mainly based on the publicly available production materials of multiple industry-representative enterprises, formed after weighted integration.
Activity Description
The system boundary covers core manufacturing processes such as injection molding, frame fixation, mold closing and casting, foaming and curing, surface glue spraying, fabric glue spraying and drying, as well as related energy-auxiliary processes in the factory such as raw material preparation, mold maintenance, energy input, and waste treatment, excluding product packaging.
Process Description
The passenger car main instrument panel is an interior decoration part located in front of the front passenger and under the front windshield in the passenger car, and is used for installing various instruments and control parts.
