The etching process enables, for example, a 3D lettering or a 3D logo made of the same alloy as the carrier material, but with a completely different look. In the subsequent anodising process, these three-dimensional designs are coated to be particularly resistant to chemical and mechanical stress. The combination of matt and shiny effects promises special aesthetics.
The inscription of surfaces with the help of solid-state lasers is the technology used for the depiction of logos, symbols and lettering on stainless steel or aluminium. It is particularly suitable for all visual representations of operating functions and branding on the carrier material. The desired contour is achieved by ablating the material layers accordingly.
Laser marking or laser engraving is carried out on a 250 x 250 mm plane field for part sizes up to 1300 x 600 mm.
Using screen printing, pad printing and UV printing, a wide range of printing solutions can be realised for metals, metal foils and plastics, e.g. raised or transition-free logos, symbols and lettering for fronts, side panels and components.
The UV printing process was specially developed by us to meet the high requirements of the cross-cut and Ericson grip test and in order to guarantee long-lasting use. Likewise, we can print directly onto the base material using digital printing technology with four or six colours.
We can grind, brush, polish or blast metal surfaces to a wide variety of degrees of fineness. Turning or milling the metals is also possible. Due to the automated, robot-controlled treatment of the surfaces, every processing is 100% reproducible.
Our manufacturing technologies include
We have a factory-owned anodising plant that can support you with the following finishing processes:
In addition, various forms of pre- and post-treatment are possible, for example brushing, grinding, blasting, polishing, special pickling and lasering.
Using our own powder coating facility, we coat components with a choice of over 210 RAL colours, which we deliver just-in-time. For special requirements, we provide the surfaces for example with anti-stick or anti-fingerprint coatings.
Aluminium, sheet metal, stainless steel and steel:
For the required substructure of metal components and metal foils, we back-inject them with the required plastics.
We design and manufacture the plastic injection moulding tools required for this ourselves in order to avoid distortion due to shrinkage and different linear expansions. Furthermore, we integrate the desired electronics or lighting elements during back injection moulding.
We join components using a wide variety of methods. In bonding, we use liquid adhesives, adhesive tapes and also adhesive die-cuts, which we apply manually or robotically. Optionally, different types of pre-treatment are possible, including plasma, primer, scarfing or pyrosil as well as different rapid curing methods (UV light, infrared, heat radiation).
We manufacture a wide range of different products, including fan wheels and components as part of assemblies, in our own plastic injection moulding shop with machines up to 300 t clamping force.
We manufacture the corresponding moulds and injection moulding tools ourselves.

FAQs
Please take into account that our production is geared towards medium to large series production. We are therefore unable to process requests for very small quantities for economic reasons.
We ask for your understanding that we cannot consider requests from private individuals of any kind.
