Injection Molding / Extrusion

Injection molding is one of the most important manufacturing processes for producing plastic components and is characterized by high efficiency and precision. In this process, polymeric powder is melted in an injection molding machine, injected under pressure into a mold, and then cooled to achieve the desired geometry. This method is ideally suited for mass production, as it allows for short cycle times and ensures high repeatability. Injection molding is especially relevant for industries where complex components with precise dimensional tolerances are required. Additionally, the process allows for the integration of additional functions, such as by inserting metal inserts, or the production of multi-component parts.

 
The LKT’s processing technology center is equipped with various powder mixers, twin-screw extruders, and granulators for material preparation. In the field of extrusion technology, single- and twin-screw extruders with different characteristics are used. Additionally, the LKT operates several injection molding machines.
