Plastics Processing
with Deep Vertical Integration
- Series Parts
Plastic parts are manufactured in low, medium and high volumes and are designed from the development phase onwards for technical function, cost efficiency, reproducibility and stable production processes.
Technical focus
- Production of small, medium and large series
- Design-for-manufacture of component geometries and materials
- Stable, reproducible injection-molding processes
- Integrated testing and monitoring concepts
Application advantages
- High process reliability over the entire product life cycle
- Consistent quality with varying quantities
- Cost-efficient volume production with long-term planning reliability
- Assemblies
Individual components are assembled into ready-to-install assemblies, including purchased parts, assembly, testing and documented quality assurance.
Technical focus
- Assembly of ready-to-install assemblies
- Integration of purchased parts and third-party components
- Functional, quality and final inspections
- Documented and traceable processes
Application Benefits
