Design and in-house toolmaking
Custom mold manufacturing
We manufacture molds for plastic injection molding, compression molding, MIM and aluminum casting. Each design is tailored to your part, material and production volume — from the technical brief to the finished tool.
Over 20 years
Experience in designing and manufacturing production tooling.
A complete process
Design and manufacturing teams within one company.
In-house trials
For plastic injection molding, compression molding and MIM.
Molds for your production requirements
We choose the design to suit the process, part geometry and requirements for the finished component.
Plastic injection molding
Tools for technical parts, housings, components and other plastic products. Manufactured and tested at our own production facility.
Plastic injection moldingCompression molding
Compression molds for parts made from rubber and powder materials. We account for the material and process conditions in the design and carry out in-house trials.
Compression moldingMIM technology
Molds for injecting metal powder feedstocks (Metal Injection Molding). We account for the process requirements and test the tools on our own equipment.
MIM productionAluminum casting
We design and manufacture molds for aluminum casting. The design and tooling requirements are developed after reviewing the technical brief.
Design and manufacturing capabilities
The cavity count, runner system and mold mechanisms are selected for each project and the equipment on which the tool will operate.
Our own toolmaking facility
We manufacture components, assemble molds and carry out fitting and adjustment in-house. Parts and assemblies are checked against the design documentation.
- CNC milling and turning
- Electrical discharge machining, grinding, finishing and polishing
- Assembly, fitting and inspection of parts and assemblies
Hot runner and cold runner systems
We select the melt delivery system according to the material, part geometry and planned production volume.
Single-cavity and multi-cavity designs
The cavity count is determined by the required output and the capabilities of the molding equipment.
Slides and hydraulic cylinders
Moving components, angle pins and hydraulic mechanisms are used to form undercuts and complex geometries.
Two-component molds (2K)
We develop tools for parts made from two materials or colors. The design is matched to the two-component molding process.
From 3D model to finished mold
Molds designed by our engineering bureau and manufactured in our own toolroom.

A four-cavity mold for a thin-walled ABS part.
Four parts per cycle
The multi-cavity design increases output without lengthening the molding cycle.
Precise forming inserts
The thin labyrinth ribs call for precisely made inserts, produced with EDM, grinding and finishing.
Tested before handover
The mold is tested on our own injection molding equipment and the trial parts are inspected.

From the technical brief to the finished mold
We agree on the technical decisions step by step and check the results throughout manufacturing.
Reviewing the brief
We review drawings, a 3D model or a technical brief: geometry, material, part requirements and planned production volume.
Design
The mold is designed for the customer’s process and equipment. Where needed, we recommend changes to improve part manufacturability.
Design approval
We agree on the design and technical requirements. Manufacturing begins once the documentation is approved.
Manufacturing and assembly
We machine the components using mechanical and EDM processes, inspect the parts, then assemble and adjust the mold.
Trials
We check mold operation and sample parts against the agreed requirements under an agreed trial plan. We provide trial samples to the customer for approval. Trial arrangements are defined for each project.
Adjustment and delivery
We make any adjustments required after trials. The finished tool is delivered, or part production is arranged under the terms of the order.
Materials and components
We use tool steels and components from specialist manufacturers, including Böhler, DME, Pro Plastica, Mold-Masters and INCOE. Materials for forming components, guides, ejection assemblies and runner systems are selected to meet the project requirements.
Manufacturing and quality under control
Designers, manufacturing departments and inspection teams work within a single production process.
Trials at our own production facility
We test molds for plastic injection molding, compression molding and MIM in-house. We check the mechanisms and the quality of sample parts, using the results to adjust the tooling.
Design and manufacturing together
Design decisions are coordinated with manufacturing, from the documentation to assembly of the finished mold.
Inspection of parts and assemblies
Manufactured components are checked against the documentation at the relevant stages of the production process.
ISO 9001:2015 quality management system
Our company operates a quality management system certified by TÜV Thüringen to ISO 9001:2015.
Before you order
What do you need to prepare a quotation?
Send drawings, a 3D model or a technical brief. Include the part material, requirements and planned production volume. We can work with you to clarify any missing information.
Which molds do you test in-house?
We carry out in-house trials for plastic injection molds, compression molds and MIM molds. The trial plan and conditions are agreed according to the design and process for each project.
How long does manufacturing take?
Lead time is determined after reviewing the technical brief. It depends on design complexity, materials, components and the scope of work, and is agreed for each order.
How do you select materials and components?
Tool steels, guides, ejection assemblies and runner system components are selected according to the part material, operating conditions and project requirements. We use products from specialist manufacturers.
What warranty do you provide for molds?
We provide a warranty on the molds we manufacture. The warranty terms are specified in the mold’s technical passport: 12 months or a specified number of operating cycles, depending on the mold type.
Can a mold be repaired or modified?
We repair and modify tooling. Feasibility and the scope of work are determined after reviewing the mold’s condition and the available design documentation.
