Series production
At any phase of the lifecycle.
Together with engineering or as built to print project.
New product launch management.
Production planning, process control, material, and technology optimization, quality management, and production floor integration are the foundation for any efficient production. With many years of experience in professional project management together with a diverse pool of in-house technologies and extensive partnership networks with different industry leaders and prestigious institutions, we always provide our customers with cutting-edge solutions for production regardless of industry background.
Industrialization.
Our Customer is our focus: we industrialize automotive projects from several 100 to several 10.000 pcs. From 100 percent handmade to fully automated solutions is our range of possibilities. Moreover we cover a very wide range of products in our portfolio.
Means, flexibility and individual solutions are our DNA. This we combine with highest Automotive quality standards and realize topics like interlogging or safe launch even in manual linies.
Small - mid-series production.
No matter if it’s a new development, an adaptation of large-series products, or a build-to-print project, we offer customized, generic and flexible manufacturing and assembly concepts for small series production.
We coordinate the necessary equipment for production, focused on either manual, partly automated, or even fully automated assembly.
Generic work stations are made from stock and new components in our fully equipped prototype shop
Flexible concepts for all phases of the product lifestyle.
We are flexible to work on new concepts, for particular project phases: Series ramp-up, series production for low and mid volumes, or discontinuation of your series (end of life production).
If you are considering the transfer of machinery or complete production equipment, we will create optimized production plans for the small series in which the existing machines and systems are optimally integrated. This ensures a long-term economical supply of the required products. A repair solution or a replacement cycle is also a possible variant within the framework of our small-series manufacturing facility.
Special: 3D printing in series.
From concept to product realization, our additive manufacturing maximizes development possibilities and efficiency. Utilize techniques like Fused Deposition Modeling, Stereolithography, Laser Sintering, and more.
Additive design and manufacturing example projects.
Brake caliper – road approved!
Additive-made components, such as the brake caliper shown here, are in our additive manufacturing portfolio. The caliper passes through several manufacturing steps during production. First, a CAD model is created, which afterward is transferred into an STL input (CAD data) for the 3D printer. The caliper is additively manufactured by using the SLM process. [Link to Selective Laser Melting Box] Afterwards, the brake caliper shown was validated in our measurement laboratory and is the first additive brake caliper with road approval.
Blister trays
AdaM solutions for electronic transportation: Packaging for electronic components is particularly vulnerable during transport due to electrostatic discharge (ESD). The Karben Competence Center for Additive Manufacturing (ADaM) employs a new 3D-printing-based thermoforming process to produce blisters. [LINK TO INDUSTRIAL RADAR SENSOR PAGE] In order to assure product quality and delivery speed, our central electronic plant has already adopted blister trays for products like circuit boards, order systems, and packaging.
On-demand production.
Our mission is simple: we offer customized manufacturing solutions for your projects. Our on-demand production allows you to act flexibly and efficiently without compromising on quality.
Flexible production scaling, space, skilled workers, and infrastructure.
Smooth production peaks through agile capacity optimization.
Modular manufacturing without CAPEX.
We can produce discontinued, low, and temporary quantities.
Coverage of the entire process chain.
Quickly available capacities and a wide range of manufacturing technologies.
“High quality requirements to the IATF 16949 standard series production are met by process assurance, traceability and interlocking concepts and end-of-line tests.”
