Research & Development

Materials, design, processes and validation, these are the four pillars on which our development expertise is founded.

R&D

All of these fields are tightly linked and intermeshed with each other because that is the only way we can meet our clients’ exacting demands. We offer you the entire process, from material development to product design, processes and validation, thus acting as a comprehensive development partner for you.

Material and process development

Cast iron, aluminium and magnesium, these are the materials whose potential we develop.

Sand casting, pressure die casting, gravity die casting: we use the optimum procedure on a case-by-case basis.

Surface and jointing technology: technological casting innovation rounds off our product application spectrum.

Design

Where things were previously viewed in isolation, today they are optimised holistically via virtual simulations. That way, both form and function can be improved rapidly and economically. Bionics provide us with many answers here: transferring natural structural principles to cast parts leads to innovative lightweight designs. Our expertise lies in the precise coordination of geometry, casting techniques and materials.

Validation

Thanks to our direct access to test stand facilities, we can immediately subject our latest developments to comprehensive testing. This significantly shortens the development cycle from prototype to series product, enabling our clients to get their new products to market more quickly. Flexibility and reliability coupled with rapid reaction times and best quality are our defining characteristics. In our state-of-the-art workshop we promptly produce the necessary devices and materials samples.
