Plastics technology is more than plastic injection molding: our long-standing customers appreciate our advice and support from product development to production. We see ourselves as a critical, but always solution-oriented sparring partner with a pronounced customer focus.

Simulation

Simulation

Already in the quotation phase or within the framework of development projects, we use state-of-the-art CAD software and, if necessary, also carry out draft simulations and filling simulations.

In this way, we guarantee a product design that is suitable for plastics and molds and ensure compliance with the formulated specifications and tolerances.

Mold design / Mould design

Mold design / Mould design

With our external partners, we design and produce for you high-quality plastic injection molds / moulds for both prototypes and small quantities as well as mass production in highest quantities.

Depending on your needs, we can find our partners directly on site or in Germany or worldwide.

Automation concept

Automation concept

In the case of projects with high output quantities in particular, we also create a comprehensive automation concept in the interests of cost-effectiveness and cost-effective production. This can include, as needed, the automation of production, assembly, packaging or testing processes.

Plastic injection molding / plastic injection moulding

Plastic injection molding / plastic injection moulding

Plastic injection molding has many facets: In the Friedrichs & Rath group of companies, our customers can find a wide range of manufacturing processes, starting with the "classic" plastic injection molding on injection molding machines up to 5,000 kN clamping force. Furthermore, we encapsulate various types of inserts, we produce multi-component items with up to 4 different components and we master the IMD technology (in-mold decoration) for producing a colored and abrasion-resistant design for plastic parts.

With pleasure we discover together with our customers also innovative technologies such as the injection molding of or with microcellular foams in order to produce components with lower weight and possibly also at a lower cost.

Assemblies and assembly

Assemblies and assembly

The assembly of simple to complex assemblies takes place directly on the machine and / or as a downstream production process. Profitability and quality come first and decide which concepts are used.

From simple manual assembly to automated multi-level, complex assembly and comprehensive technical function tests - our services cover the entire spectrum.
