Robotised polymer processing for versatile products.

Through the specific use of lightweight design technologies, we have managed to combine the usually static machine technology of injection moulding with classic industrial robotics. This allows us to move the injection moulding machine freely in a space for the first time, both to equip the production with a unique agility and to manufacture hybrid components with a unique variability.

The challenge of combining different materials to create hybrid components always lies in the effort and costs involved. For large components and small series quantities, hybridisation is limited to classic processes such as bonding or welding, sometimes with high manual expenses. Due to the high equipment and mould costs, hybrid injection moulding has so far been limited to small components or large series production quantities.

This is exactly where we come in and completely rethink the process and product.

In doing so, we reduce the mass of the injection moulding machine to a minimum. We rely on small injection units and compact, inexpensive and quickly exchangeable moulds. Together with our lightweight clamping system, we can also make the extensive advantages of hybrid technologies available for smaller series and large components.
