Handtmann Kunststofftechnik
About us
The Handtmann Group combines more than 150 years of tradition with an innovative focus on the future. As an independent company within the Handtmann Group of Companies, we, Albert Handtmann Elteka GmbH & Co. KG, have developed into the world market leader in the production and processing of PA 12C.
The high-tech materials developed in our in-house laboratories LTK® PURE and LTK® METAL CORE (previously Lauramid®), LTK® COMPOSITE (previously HiCompelt®) and LTK® INJECT (previously Lauramid Inject®) are used in mechanical engineering as components or complete systems in a variety of industries. The material LTK® ADDITIVE (previously 3D Filament) complements the product range. Well-known customers worldwide rely on our moulded component solutions. Handtmann Elteka has a global presence.
The Handtmann family has recently been enriched by the addition of Kegelmann Technik GmbH. For more than 35 years, Kegelmann has had a broad engineering expertise and can offer prototypes and small series in in-house 3D printing, injection moulding or CNC machining. Thanks to the company's own toolmaking department, extremely short delivery times are possible. This means that Kegelmann and Handtmann Elteka complement each other perfectly in their product range.
The slogan can thus be used with great self-confidence:
For every industry. For every requirement.

LTK® METAL CORE: Lauramid® mit Metall im Kern.
LTK® METAL CORE: This is our high-performance Lauramid® material with a metal core. Its unbeatable properties: · High abrasion resistance · Excellent impact strength · Long-lasting dimensional stability · Excellent shape memory effect · Food-grade compliant with the necessary certifications upon request Additionally: · Cost-saving, inseparably bonded Lauramid®-steel pairing and · Higher component load-bearing capacity You're sure to want to know more. Discover our applications at www.handtmann.com/kunststofftechnik or contact us at the KPA Ulm, booth 3-B20, or in Bad Salzuflen, booth 21-B10.
LTK® PURE/LTK® METAL CORE can be cast into almost any shape. Whether robot arms, pipe bends or agitator propellers, the high rigidity and low weight allow endless applications. The biggest advantage: the service life can be increased considerably.
LTK® INJECT is a 100% recycled product for injection molded parts. Due to its low water absorption and moderate swelling behavior, it comes up to 80% close to the excellent mechanical properties of the cast material LTK® PURE.
LTK® ADDITIVE can be used to produce components with cavities, undercuts or internal channels using the FDM process. Material combinations, for example with Soft PLA, are also possible. LTK® ADDITVE is a 100% recycled product.
LTK-COMPOSITE is a composite material made of PA12 and carbon or glass fibers. Parts are manufactured using the T-RTM process. With a content of up to 65% LTK-COMPOSITE is one of the materials with the highest fiber volume in the composites market.
