Many years of experience with plastics technology
For more than 40 years we have been manufacturing products made of almost all technical plastics, rubbery thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) with and without silicone, and duroplasts.
We turn your wishes and ideas into products, and at the same time we offer you our comprehensive know-how in the fields of construction, prototyping, the making of the pilot to the master form, series manufacture, module assembly and printing.
The most up-to-date injection moulding machines
Our modern 1K and 2K injection moulding machines from ARBURG and ENGEL (180 KN to 5.000 KN) are equipped throughout with 5-axis CNC-controlled handling or sprue removal systems.
All process parameters are recorded and documented by ARBURG-host computer system (ALS).
The machines are supplied via a central material feed unit.
Technical plastics are dried safely and gently by means of dry air dryers.
Energy-saving 365 litre dryers are available for large-volume parts. Matching conditioning equipment and material tests complete our range of services.
In addition to our in-house toolmaking department for injection moulding, we are happy to manufacture for you using your own existing tools.

Technical plastic articles
We have ultramodern and powerful machinery with the latest technologies for this purpose, and we take pride in using hybrid (semi-electrical) and fully-electrical injection moulding machines. For many years we have been manufacturing complex products and modules from all technical plastics, including high-performance plastics, TPE, PVC and duroplasts in 1C, 2C and 3-component injection moulding. We use the most up-to-date test and measuring equipment and in this way we ensure that the high quality standards for your products are maintained. Statistical process controls compliant with continuous improvement processes ensure permanent optimisation.
2C and 3C – the multiple-component technology
Demanding multifunctional components with diverse modular requirements are produced cost-effectively by the two- and three-component injection moulding process
Vertical injection-moulding We use vertical machines for the overmoulding of metal parts, because these machines are ideal for dealing with the mechanical or manual insertion of the component which needs to be processed.
VARIO-principle
In addition, and in the clamping force range from 500 KN to 1500 KN, we offer the option of using the ARBURG VARIO-PRINCIPLE. By using this system, the injection unit can be positioned eccentrically, so that in this way complicated article geometries can be connected economically and with the shortest possible gate path, and the moulded part can be filled cleanly and securely.
Electrotechnology / white goods
For many years we have been involved with components and modules for the electrotechnology sector.
From design to series manufacture – everything from a single source.
Take advantage of our know-how and skills! High demands made of surfaces without welded seams, heat and chemical-resistant plastics, just-in-time deliveries, and a high level of fully-automated processes – all these are everyday situations for us. In all cases, the articles in this product group are removed and stored using the most up-to-date handling equipment.
Hybrid technology
- Processing of metal and plastic in a single process chain
- Increase in added value
- Reduction in costs – no need for assembly work
- Weight reduction
- Creation of additional uses
Clean room technology in a class 7 clean room
We manufacture your high-precision components for use in medical technology in a class 7 clean room.
Take advantage of our many years of skill and knowledge coupled with the latest technologies which we use in-house for the manufacture of highly-complex plastic medical devices for your own special medical-technical application.
Of course, we carry out permanent monitoring of the clean room conditions, because these form the basis of the qualified work environment.

Research and development
We make use not only of all the current processes and common raw materials, but also of new manufacturing methods and materials, including bio-compatible or bio-degradable plastics. In addition to the use of such materials, we also pay special attention to reducing the weight of all parts without changing the product characteristics (lightweight construction). In the lightweight construction sector we also replace metals with high-performance plastics. This is where we also offer the options of mould-flow analysis, computer-controlled component load tests, microsections and computer-tomographic tests so that we can replace heavy cast components 1:1 with plastic parts and at the same time improve the quality of the components.
Certifications
We are certified according:
DIN EN ISO 9001

DEVELOPMENT & DESIGN
Save time, expense and effort by having all services from a single source. As early as with the plastic-compatible designing and developing of components we make use of our decades of experience and also of mould-flow analysis, computer-controlled component load tests in order to create a tool mould which meets your needs in the best possible way and with which we can manufacture your products with the optimal process reliability.
DESIGN
Plastics and assembly-compliant design, taking into account the requirements specification, are the pre-condition for high product quality with low tool wear. This means that the design plays an important role in the life-cycle and for long-term durability of the tools.
Our experienced project team accompanies each tool from the original idea to the 3D and 2D design phase right up to the sampling phase. If necessary, the team will also prepare concept and feasibility studies. Functional processes can also be simulated. All these factors ensure the best possible degree of reliability in implementation and later series application on the customer’s premises.
PROTOTYPING
You can have your prototypes or a very small batch made in five different materials. The PolyJet process which we use at Meding allows us to manufacture smooth surfaces, low wall thicknesses and movable small parts. The models are printed very accurately with a layer thickness of 28 micrometers.
Prototypes are especially important in the medical technology sector so that production errors can be excluded in advance. Our range of products comprises four opaque materials and a material with characteristics similar to those of polypropylene. The material characteristics range from rubbery to rigid, from transparent to opaque, from neutral to colourful, and from standard plastics to biocompatible plastics. Talk to us and get your prototype in up to 24 hours.
