CNC-machined plastic parts

As specialists in plastics processing, our machinery covers the entire range of services. We machine engineering plastics such as POM, PET, and PC, as well as high-performance plastics such as PEEK, PAI, and Vespel^®/PI.

Using our CNC milling machines, we manufacture intricate precision parts from over 160 materials, some of which are only a few centimeters in size. Furthermore, we mill large-format plastic components on our largest 5-axis CNC machining center, which has a working area of 2600 × 1700 × 950 mm. Of course, we also produce all sizes in between these two values, although it should be noted that the maximum and minimum sizes always depend on the geometry and material.

You can hire us as a contract manufacturer and provide us with your technical drawings. However, our true strength lies in our role as a development partner. Right after you send your initial inquiry, we review the CAD data together with you, assess feasibility, and advise you on material selection. If necessary, we optimize the design directly in your CAD software and adapt the geometry to the tool paths. Where required by the intended application, we also verify compliance. After manufacturing and quality assurance, we support you through the prototyping phase and transition your component to series production.

The operating temperature depends on the type of plastic and can play an important role at both high and very low temperatures. We offer a wide range of high-temperature plastics that are suitable for the most extreme conditions. With some types of plastic, however, it is important to make the right choice even at low temperatures. For example, PP should not be used at sub-zero temperatures because it becomes very brittle.

Compliance and approvals are playing an increasingly important role in determining whether a plastic part can even be used in certain industries. There are a multitude of laws and regulations that are constantly changing. For this reason, we have trained a materials compliance officer whose expertise our customers are happy to draw upon.

If chemicals are used, it is necessary to determine which plastic is suitable for contact with them. There are specific groups of plastics that exhibit excellent properties under special operating conditions when exposed to aggressive media. Examples include PTFE, PP, and PPS, which are significantly superior to metal parts in many applications.
