Save time in developing the prototype that suits you best, and stay a few steps ahead of the competition. We support you in the implementation with the building blocks of our service packages and help you to gain a competitive advantage.

In Rapid Tooling, injection molding tool inserts are designed on the basis of 3D input data and manufactured from high-strength aluminum using HSC milling. In this way - even when using original materials - you get extremely realistic prototypes with very good surface qualities that hardly differ from mass production in terms of component properties. The high strength of the tool inserts enables the production of pilot and small series using the original material in short cycle times. For the production of two- and multi-component injection molded parts (hard / hard or hard / soft), one injection mold is used for each component. Metal inserts can also be overmolded using insert technology.

With our protosys® rapid tooling process, we enable you to achieve maximum efficiency in your product development. We manufacture individual mould inserts for the production of near-series prototypes flexibly, quickly and cost-effectively. This allows you to work with fully functional components made of series material as early as during the development phase.

Pilot-run and small-scale series tools in rapid tooling. Electrical discharge machining (EDM). Precision and perfect timing – Wehl customers have been benefi ting from these signature characteristics for many years. We master challenging requirements of the production of pilot- run and small-scale series tools using the latest software at 8 CAD/CAM design workstations. Interfaces for many commonly used data formats are available. This also enables computer-aided, really fast mould separation and electrode design. The electrodes are manufactured on our HSC graphite machine and are fully automatically burnt into the mould inserts. Specifi c tasks such as undercuts are realized using loose parts. Our many years of experience and expertise are also used to produce multi-component parts and parts with insertmoulded inlays and strip conductors. • Service life at least approx. 1.000 – 20.000 parts • Multiple cavities and exchangeable inserts possible • Max. mould size of up to 520 mm (distance between tie bars) • Aluminium or steel mould inserts (can also be hardened) • Machines: Arburg - 3 Allrounder 270 (clamping force of 25-40 t) - 5 Allrounder 320 (clamping force of 50-85 t), 3 horizontal, 2 vertical and 2 with removal handling - Allrounder 370 M 1000-250 (clamping force of 100 t) - Allrounder 420 C 1000-290 (clamping force of 100 t) - Allrounder 470 M 1300-350 (clamping force of 130 t) - Allrounder 520 C 2000-675 (clamping force of 200 t) - BOY XS (clamping force of 10 t) injection weight 9,3 g • Plastic granulates with a melting point of up to 350 °C can be processed • Dry-air granulate dryer available • Residual moisture measurement possible • Mould temperature control up to 180°C • Complex parts with inlays and undercuts possible • Part volumes of up to around 690 ccm (+Intrusion) • Materials can also be coloured ERODE • 1 wire EDM machine • 1 sinking EDM maschine • 1 sinking EDM center with handling system GF Form 300 + Mikron Mill S400

Recyclates make it possible to make products more sustainable by saving CO2 compared to virgin material. As one of the leading companies for the mechanical recycling of engineering and high performance plastics with over 60 years of experience, MKV offershigh quality recyclates.
