The customer asked us to help them to put the old tool back into action and to produce spare parts. It worked ;)

material PBT 30%GF + TPE

For the purpose of the book we took some pictures using a drone.

We have finished the last part of the drying of the material - it is flexible and allows the dried material to be unloaded into the carts. These can then be taken to the machine and the material can be sucked from them.

We have equipped the toolshop with a new CNC lathe DMG MORI NLX 2500-700

We have extended the central drying and transport of material so that we have almost all machines covered.

We started an electronic documentation project to reduce paperwork.

For the injection moulding plant we decided to purchase fully electric FANUC injection moulding machines equipped with linear robots, sorting flaps and conveyor belts. These machines guarantee high precision and repeatability of the production process, plus energy efficiency and reduced noise. That is why we purchased 4 machines with clamping force - 50, 100, 150 and 220 tons.

we have purchased a spotting press for easier mould adjustment in the toolshop

for mould storage we have purchased sliding racks with high load capacity

We implemented a new production planning and control system (MES) - BMS Plantmaster + automatic data collection directly from the machines and input into ERP. This allows us to:

• see production in real time
• plan production more easily and efficiently
• react quickly to possible shortages

to guarantee sufficient capacity we have purchased machines with clamping forces of 50t, 80t, 220t and 400t

we now have a total of 27 machines - 35-500t

we have increased our capacity for the production of larger parts - Engel 400t

we have purchased new assembly tables for assembly

we have purchased another Engel machine - with clamping force of 160t

preparing the assembly hall for the new project and relocation from the existing facility - new floor + racks

three-axis machining centre especially for machining of plates

ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO TS 16949 - certified by TÜV Nord

we bought a new lathe for our toolshop

the interior is already complete, the fire extinguishing agents in place

Hermle C12 and Hermle C42 machining centres installed

The EOS P396 3D printer is also already in place

29.12.2014 - FINAL APPROVAL

the interior is starting to take shape

the "rough construction" is almost finished

začalo se oplášťovat

we have purchased CADMOULD 7.0 3D-F injection moulding simulation software

• simulation of material flow into the mould including 2K and inserts
• shrinkage and deformation analysis
• analysis of cold joints, sinkholes, last filling point,...

construction starts to be assembled

the fundaments are coming to the finals

the columns are starting to be prepared

reinforcement of fundaments

reinforcement of fundaments

latest control

including integrated linear robot

latest generation

stone table, bridge and pinola for more precise measurements

max. measuring range: 800x1500x700mm

certification by TÜV Nord

we purchased a CAD workstation - Autodesk Inventor

part of this SW is also a module for filling study

we installed 2 air conditioning units in the measuring laboratory to achieve 100% environmental stability

we installed a new injection moulding machine with a clamping force of 500t

in line with the long-term plan, we successfully completed and launched the central material drying & transportation of PIOVAN

• improved material flow
• better overview
• reduced risk of mistakes (coded station)

we made additional steps to ensure process stability and production quality on larger machines with a higher volume of semi-automatic work and equipped 2 Battenfeld machines (200 and 270t clamping force) with linear robots

recertification of the integrated management system

first part of the central material transport (Piovan mixing hoppers for the 2 largest machines)

we moved the assembly plant from rented spaces in Chlumec na Cidlinou to the previous injection moulding plant in Sopřeč

we have purchased equipment for the tool maintenance room

• lathe
• surface grinder
• stand drill
• saw

we equipped the injection moulding plant with the first two-component injection moulding machine

clamping force: 500 t

dimension between bars: 920x920 mm

volume of the horizontal injection unit: 1608 cm³

volume of the vertical injection unit: 154 cm³

the machine is equipped with a 5-axis robot

in October 2006 the environmental management system was certified according to ČSN EN ISO 14001:2005

in January 2007 the quality management system was certified according to ISO/TS 16949:2002 and DIN ISO 9001:2000
