>> PRODUCING THE MOULDS

Specialist operators in the machine shop produce the steel moulds for the plastics. These are ideal for high production levels and are subjected to the appropriate processes for surface treatment where necessary.

The metal materials used in the construction of the moulds are selected on the basis of internal know-how and the specific characteristics of the product and the process.

The mechanical processes are carried out using milling machines, lathes, grinders, drills, saws, spark erosion machines and various other equipment.

All milling machine terminals are assisted by computers with CAD-CAM software which make it possible to work complex surfaces and enable the operator to make the best choice of machine tool programme, also providing a preview of the finished product.
The subsequent use of other instruments, with the assistance of in-house polishing and sand blasting processes, makes it possible to complete the processing stage of the moulds to the point of making them usable for production.

 

     

The department is equipped with:
1 CNC 3-axle SIEMENS milling machine
1 CNC 5-axle C.B. FERRARI milling machine with automatic tool change
1 CNC 3-axle ALESA MONTI milling machine with 1900 x 1000 x 1000 action work surface
2 vertical spark erosion machines 1 numerically controlled lathe
2 column drills
2 TIG and wire welders
1 sand blasting machine

 

Our thirty years of experience enables us also to produce moulds for a variety of uses:

Moulds for rubber
Moulds for pressure die-casting
Moulds for plastics
Moulds for sheet processing
