Your Partner for Precision & Plastics

Aluminium composite panels bond two thin aluminium facing sheets to a plastic core, creating a lightweight, flat and flexurally rigid panel material. Dibond, Alucobond, ALUCOM and Aluverbundplatte differ mainly in facing thickness and manufacturer range, but are technically closely related. We saw, mill, drill, punch and fold these panels to precise dimensions from a drawing or on-site measurements for facades, signage, exhibition stands and interior fit-out. With a PE core they are normally flammable (building material class B2); for higher fire-protection requirements we advise on suitable alternatives.

Amorphous thermoplastics are versatile, easy to form and in many cases optically clear. PMMA (Plexiglas) works as a glass replacement thanks to its clarity and weather resistance, PVC offers high chemical resistance and easy processing. ABS and SAN are impact resistant and dimensionally stable, typical for housings and visible parts. We machine these materials into covers, sight glasses, tank components and prototypes. Note: amorphous plastics tend to stress cracking under heat, so we work with sharp tools and adapted cutting parameters.

Standard plastics with low density, high chemical resistance and very good sliding properties. PE 1000 (UHMW-PE) is the classic choice for wear strips, guides and wear protection, PE-HD is proven in tank and apparatus construction, PP in chemically loaded plants and piping. All four machine extremely well but are comparatively soft and expand noticeably under heat. For tight tolerances we account for swelling and shrinkage behaviour.

Amorphous engineering materials combine high strength with impact resistance and dimensional stability. PC (Makrolon) is virtually unbreakable and transparent, the first choice for protective screens, sight windows and machine guards. PETG forms and bonds well, PPE and PSU offer higher temperature resistance and hydrolysis stability. When machining we pay particular attention to stress cracking: controlled heat removal and annealing of the stock where required.

The workhorses of mechanical precision: high stiffness, excellent abrasion resistance and good sliding properties. POM is the standard for gears, plain bearings and guide elements and comes in two variants, the particularly dimensionally stable copolymer POM-C and the stronger homopolymer POM-H. PA 6 is tougher and more damping, as cast polyamide PA 6 G also available in large dimensions and thick sections, as PA 6 FR with flame retardancy to EN 45545-2 for rail applications. PET and PBT complete the field wherever tight tolerances and low moisture absorption matter.

Amorphous high-performance materials for continuous use at high temperatures, sterilisable and hydrolysis resistant. PEI (Ultem) is inherently flame retardant and highly dimensionally stable, PPSU withstands hundreds of steam sterilisation cycles without embrittlement, PES and PSU are chemically robust and semi-transparent. Typical fields are medical technology, aircraft interiors, analytics and food technology. These materials react sensitively to internal stresses, so we anneal stock and parts for tight tolerances.

For applications where temperature, chemistry and continuous mechanical load are demanding at the same time. PEEK is the metal replacement of high-performance engineering, loadable up to around 250 °C continuously, inherently flame retardant to UL 94 V-0 and sterilisable. PTFE stands for almost complete chemical inertness and the lowest friction coefficient of all plastics, PVDF for purity and resistance in chemical and semiconductor technology, PPS for dimensional stability under heat. These materials are considerably more expensive than engineering plastics, so we advise in advance which parts genuinely require them.

Glass fibre reinforced thermosets are hard, dimensionally stable and excellent electrical insulators, even under heat. HGW (laminated fabric) and epoxy-based EP-GC are used for circuit board carriers, transformer and switchgear components, insulating strips and thermal separation plates. Unlike thermoplastics they cannot be reformed, only machined. Milling and drilling produce abrasive dust, so we work with carbide and diamond tooling and dedicated extraction.

Flexible materials for seals, buffers and vibration damping. PUR (Vulkollan) achieves the highest wear resistance under dynamic load, FKM (Viton) is chemically resistant and suitable for high temperatures, NBR performs against oils and fuels, EPDM against weathering and ozone, silicone across a very wide temperature range. Elastomers are not machined in the classic sense but cut, punched or waterjet cut. We supply mouldings, strips and mats to drawing. Under the umbrella of cellular polyurethane damping elastomers we also stock Cellasto (microcellular PUR by BASF) and Sylomer (Getzner) as spring, bump-stop and vibration-isolation elements, for example in vehicle suspensions as well as in rail, construction and mechanical engineering.

Micro-carbon-fibre-filled and unreinforced polyamide for FDM 3D printing, complementing our classic machining. Onyx combines high stiffness with an excellent surface finish and can be combined with continuous fibre reinforcement, Onyx FR is additionally flame retardant to UL94 V-0, and Onyx ESD is static dissipative for use in electronics manufacturing. Nylon White is the economical, unreinforced entry-level material with high toughness. We print functional prototypes, fixtures and small batches right in-house.

For laser engraving we offer a wide range of plastic, acrylic and metal engraving materials: two-layer laminates where the laser engraves through a coloured top layer down to a contrasting core, as well as coated aluminium, brass and stainless steel sheets for durable nameplates and control-panel labelling. The materials differ in construction, colour combination and application — from economical standard materials to weather-resistant grades for outdoor use. We are happy to advise on the right choice for your labelling or identification task.

Standard orders are usually ready within 24 hours. Express engravings are done in just 30 minutes. Overnight service is available for 3D printing orders on request.

We manufacture from lot size 1 – from individual parts and prototypes to large-scale production runs.

We carry over 50 plastic types in over 500 dimensions – from standard grades (POM, PE, PP, PVC, PMMA) and engineering plastics (PC, PA6, PA66, PET) to high-performance materials (PEEK, PTFE, PEI, PVDF). Customer consignment stock available on request.
