Strong & flexible wire assembly
Bent wire components from William Hughes are helping a passenger car manufacturer introduce a high technology version of inflatable bladder seats that can be controlled with air pressure. Used to enhance comfort and provide a massage for passengers in its range of luxury cars, the air system is located in the seat back and features a built-in pump, so small air pockets can be inflated or deflated to suit the needs of the individual.

William Hughes is supplying a wire assembly that holds the air system in place. The assembly has to be both strong and flexible, and manufactured to a fine tolerance.
The assembly, which incorporates several bends situated very close together, also features an adjustable bracket providing flexibility for different seating arrangements.
