Manufacturing

We print in

PLA (composites), PETG, HIPS, ABS, TPE/U Nylon und Natur

 

PLA steht für Polylactid Acid (Haltbarkeit der Form bis 50 – 60°C). Der Standard für Kunststoffprototypenteile aus dem 3D Drucker. 

ABS steht für Acrylnitril-Butadien-Styrol-Copolymer (Verformung ab ca.80°C) Ein Kunststoff der nachweislich eine höhe technische Belastbarkeit aufzeigt

TPE/U steht für Thermoplastische Elastomere / Urethane. Die Dichtungskunststoffe haben ebenfalls eine technische Anforderung und werden in vielen Bereichen eingesetzt.

Nylon auch PA (Polyamid) genannt, gehört ebenfalls zu den belastbareren Kunststoffen. 

We are active in the production of prototypes and small series. We support your development in the prototypeing phase

Plastic development:

3D printed parts based on filament manufacturing (e.g. PLA, ABS, Nylon). On request we can also produce RESIN parts. 

Prototype parts are used to validate the development status of a construction phase. Many companies use the knowledge gained from rendered or constructed components in order to save costs. With this knowledge, the quality of the product can be increased and optimized.

 

We also manufacture 3D printed parts for private and personal use. Several databases are available and free. The platforms thingiverse and stlfinder are well-known portals for private usage 

Mold making:

We also produce molds or small series components from different materials. 

3D milled parts for e.g. wood or aluminum (3-axis / 2.5-axis control) are common practice. 

The area of application is diverse, from samples or fully constructed components to reversed products. Some products are not available in the automotive sector (oldtimers). 

Hybrid construction empowers a combination of plastic components, as well as the use of metals and other materials for an overall product. 

     

Some of our customers often ask how the price is related to quality. There are good prototype builders on the market and they all start with the same questions: What use is the component be expected to have? What accuracy should the component have and when should it be delivered? Of course, there are also other “W” questions.  

It can be assumed that a direct dependency on the accuracy of the component (tolerances), the ability to deliver (use) and the mechanical and structural integrity (material) are decisive for the increased costs of a product.

Together we define the specifications and take the time to examine the request and the specifications in the team as part of the development.

Here is an example for a reverse engineered reinforcement plastic bracket of a Nissan Sykline R34 front bumper.
