Plastics Technology
Ideas at their best.
When it comes to plastics technology and plastic injection molding, we're the best in the business. There is good reason for that: With over 55 years of experience, the most advanced injection molding technology, precise knowledge of the market and more than 200 molds for injection molding machines, we guarantee highly precise designs that are successfully implemented with outstanding results.
Be it a prototype, individual or series part, small series, medium or large series, complex assemblies or the development of jigs and fixtures: we always meet each customer’s individual requirements.
We are committed to the highest quality from the very beginning: we select high-quality plastics such as (e.g. ABS, PA 66 GF30 and many more) according to customer specifications and benefits, and use them in the production process. This results in products that stand out for their exceptional longevity and durability.
We are also known for our reliability and adherence to schedules – from design and development to delivery. So that leaves just one question: What can we do for you?
Services - Plastics Technology
Optical component measurement
We test all our products using a Zeiss 3D optical measuring system for quality control and assurance purposes.CAD – Detailed drawings (step/dxf)
We design our products in a 3D view in advance for modeling purposes.
We also work with a kinetic tool to simulate moving processes of assemblies.Customer-specific data sheets
We work with you to define all the specified parameters exactly as a basis for production. We then use these firmly established data sheets to create control plans for quality assurance.3D-printed samples
Before beginning series production, we create sample parts using a state-of-the-art 3D printer. This allows changes to the design to be made quickly, which not only saves time, but also money.Material analysis and testing
We regularly subject the materials used to a range of tests for quality assurance purposes, including hardness testing, penetration and thermographic testing, and spectral analysis.Tool design and creation
Each plastic part requires a special mold that is inserted into the injection molding machine. We design and build the tool based on your specifications.

What are MST's plastic parts made of?
We usually use ABS plastics or engineering plastics such as PA6 or PA66.
These are superior to conventional plastics in many respects, particularly when it comes to temperature resistance and mechanical strength. -
Can the plastic parts be recycled?
Material resulting from production waste or prototype manufacturing is regranulated in mills in our production facility.
Most of this is used for the production of articles that are not subject to food or pharmaceutical safety regulations. -
What special advantages does plastic have?
Plastics are particularly lightweight compared with materials such as light metals, glass or porcelain. Most of them are also non-conductive and insulate well against electricity and heat.
Other advantages include: they are easy to shape, resistant to water as well as many acids and alkalis, they do not oxidize, are easy to clean due to their smooth surface and can be produced in a wide range of colors.
