ADVICE IS ALL ABOUT KNOWLEDGE.
Plastic components have become an integral part of our world. We provide our customers with innovative solutions for their requirements and are always there to help with our expertise.
COMPONENT DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT
A symbiosis of state-of-the-art software and human expertise.
Our consultancy services start right from the design phase to help create components that are tailored to the plastics and tools. This enables us to achieve quality standards against a backdrop of efficiency improvements to strengthen our customers’ competitiveness.

FILLING SIMULATION AND WARPAGE CALCULATIONS
Three-dimensional details for high-quality production.
Filling simulations and warpage calculations simulate the flow of plastic in a mould. This means that injection points and process parameters can be optimised and component weaknesses can be identified at an early stage. Warpage simulation is often particularly necessary for complex parts with fibre reinforcement as a large degree of distortion will mean that the component needs to be changed.

CAD COMPONENT ADAPTATION
Effectively counteracting distortion.
The geometry and material of a component can have a big impact on its dimensional accuracy. With large components, differing wall thicknesses or a lack of supporting structures, this can sometimes lead to undesired deformation. As there are limited options to counteract this by adjusting the process parameters, adapting the component’s shape offers a way to compensate for this warping. The information obtained from the filling and warpage calculation helps to adapt the CAD data to act against the direction of deformation.

Our case studies
MODELLTECHNIK IN ACTION
Automotive
A body with class: We produced the master model for the body of the cult Evetta light electric vehicle on a 1:1 scale – with perfect milling and the finest surface finishing. Find out how.
Industry
The socket for the forest: We developed the prototypes for a type of powerbank for Stihl, which was put through its paces by forestry workers. A truly powerful project.
Aerospace
"Jena, we have no problem": Jena-Optronik commissioned MODELLTECHNIK to produce a 1:1 model of the Gateway Docking Port, which is needed for sensor tests in space applications.
Design
Timeless and dignified: Working with Samosa and our expertise in 3D printing, MODELLTECHNIK creates beautiful templates and design samples for individually designed funeral urns.
