Two-component injection moulding - Import export

Would you like to process 2 different materials or colours in one product? This can be done by means of two-component (2C) injection moulding. We employ this technique for the production of more complex components and products ranging from 5 to 150 grams. The clamping force of our 2C machines varies from 65 to 220 tons.

2K or 'two-shot' injection moulding consists of processing two different polymers (or two different colours of one polymer) into an end product by means of one injection moulding process. This technology enables several functions to be integrated into an injection moulded product. One of the major advantages of 2K injection moulding compared to overmoulding is that the polymer to be injected is still hot and has not shrunk yet. This virtually excludes the risk of burrs being formed on the second component. Another significant advantage is the cycle time gained, the constant process and the fact that manual insertion is not required, thus avoiding the risk of damaging the first component.
