The automotive hose industry plays a crucial role in the manufacturing and maintenance of vehicles. Automotive hoses are flexible tubes designed to transport fluids, gases, or air within a vehicle. These hoses are essential for various systems, including the engine, cooling, heating, and braking systems. The primary materials used in the production of automotive hoses include rubber, silicone, and thermoplastic elastomers. Rubber hoses are common due to their flexibility and resistance to heat and chemicals. Silicone hoses offer superior temperature resistance and are often used in high-performance applications. Thermoplastic elastomers provide a lightweight and durable alternative, suitable for specific applications. The manufacturing process of automotive hoses involves extrusion, where the material is forced through a die to create the desired shape and size. The hoses may undergo additional processes such as reinforcement with textile or metal braids to enhance strength and pressure resistance. Vulcanization, a chemical process, is often used to improve the elasticity and durability of rubber hoses. Automotive hoses serve various applications within the vehicle. Radiator hoses transport coolant between the engine and radiator, maintaining optimal engine temperature. Fuel hoses deliver gasoline or diesel from the tank to the engine. Brake hoses convey hydraulic fluid to the brake calipers, ensuring effective braking. Air intake hoses channel air into the engine for combustion, while heater hoses circulate coolant to the vehicle's heating system. The automotive hose industry serves a wide range of sectors, including passenger vehicles, commercial trucks, and heavy-duty machinery. It supports the production of new vehicles and the aftermarket for replacement parts. The industry must adhere to stringent standards and regulations to ensure safety, reliability, and environmental compliance. As vehicles become more advanced, the demand for specialized hoses that can withstand higher pressures, temperatures, and chemical exposures continues to grow. The automotive hose industry remains integral to the functionality and efficiency of modern vehicles, contributing to the overall performance and safety of the automotive sector.
Recent data collected by IndustryNet shows Kentucky manufacturers added jobs over the past year, helped by gains in transportation equipment and a stabilization in the coal mining industry.
According to IndustryNet's survey of 4,702 Kentucky manufacturers, industrial employment in the state inched up by a half percent between October 2016 and October 2017, recovering losses suffered over the 2015-2016 survey period.
After growing for five straight years between 2010 and 2015, Kentucky broke its winning streak, during the 2015-2016 survey period, shedding industrial jobs for the first time since the recession. This was largely due to a 19% employment decline in coal mining. Job losses in Kentucky's coal mining sector slowed over the past year, however, down 3.2%. In addition, a 2.4...(Full Article)
