High-performance plastic parts

We produce customised high-performance plastic parts using plastic injection moulding.

The geometries and design of the high-performance plastic parts can be tailored to individual customer requirements and applications.

All parts made from these high-performance thermoplastics are very resilient, stable and durable plastic parts.

High-performance plastics can also be used to substitute or replace metal parts, for example. This brings the advantage of faster cycle times, expanded design possibilities and more economical production.

Plastic material selection

High-performance plastic parts are highly durable parts made of high-temperature thermoplastics such as polyamides, PPS, PEI, LCP, PEEK, etc. These material types are at the top of the plastic pyramid. When selecting the plastic, the application and the requirements for the part are decisive. The raw plastic materials are often reinforced with glass fibres or carbon for this category of parts.

Properties high-performance thermoplastics

  1. Wear resistant
  2. Dimensionally stable
  3. Chemical and hydrolysis resistant
  4. Compressible
  5. Temperature resistant
  6. Tensile strength
