Design for production
Wall thickness, draft angles, parting lines and gating affect quality and tooling costs. We agree these details before tooling approval.
Injection moulding
Plastic parts in series.
Tool-based plastic manufacturing – from rapid tooling and pre-series to repeat production.
Discuss your project ↗Rapid tooling & production moulds
The tooling strategy depends on material, geometry, target quantity and planned production life. Sampling and approval establish an agreed production basis.
Other series production processes
Die casting, stamping and thermoforming are further options for suitable projects. We assess the right process for your part and its cost-effective production.

Technical capabilities
| Project phase | Result |
|---|---|
| Manufacturing analysis | Agreed wall thickness, draft, parting and gating |
| Tooling strategy | Rapid tooling or production tooling to suit needs and production life |
| Sampling | Sample parts for inspection and approval |
| Series production | Production with approved material and data revision |
| Post-processing | Marking, assembly or additional finish as agreed |
Tooling effort, batch size and repeat demand determine cost-effectiveness. Material and inspection requirements are defined before tooling approval.
What helps with your enquiry?
CAD data, target material, annual demand and expected batch sizes. Visible surfaces, fits and inspection details help with tooling design.
Frequently asked questions
At what quantity does injection moulding pay off?
There is no universal minimum. Tooling cost, geometry, material, annual demand and production life determine the economic choice.
Can a prototype be made first?
Yes. 3D printing, CNC or vacuum casting can help assess geometry and function before tooling approval.
