Gaskets, seals and compliant parts

Deformable door seal strip

A deformable automotive door or window seal strip, modeled as an FEM extrusion for door assembly robots.

Also called weatherstrip, weather seal, edge trim seal or door gasket.

FEM soft body

Delivered as USD for NVIDIA Isaac Sim

How is the deformable door seal strip modeled?

A door seal is a long rubber extrusion with a hollow bulb and a gripping channel. We sweep the real profile along the flange path and model it as a volume, so the bulb compresses and the channel opens over the flange when pressed on.

Profiles and lengths follow the part drawing, and the matching flange is included as a rigid part.

Which parts of the deformable door seal strip deform?

Bulb
Hollow section that compresses under a door
Channel
Grips the flange when pressed on

What ships in the USD?

One USD file per variant, with the render mesh, the simulation geometry and a physics material bound to it. Every value is set and named, so you can open it in NVIDIA Isaac Sim and run your task, or read the numbers into your own solver from the material JSON.

  • FEM soft body. A tetrahedral volume solved with the finite element method, with the visible surface carried by it. Used for foam, rubber and soft food.

Where is it used?

  • Pressing a seal onto a door flange
  • Window seal fitting
  • Trim line assembly

Industries: Automotive, Manufacturing

Questions

Which simulators does the deformable door seal strip open in?

It ships as USD for NVIDIA Isaac Sim and Newton. We also deliver MJCF for MuJoCo and Genesis, a GLB mesh, and a JSON file with every material value.

Can it be matched to our real object?

Yes. Send us a sample, a drawing or a few photos and we set size, stiffness and friction to match your part.

How do we get it?

Choose your simulator, format and variant, then tell us where to send it. We prepare the files and email them to you.

Not in the catalog? We build any object to order, with the same physics and delivery.
