Relying on our technical know-how and utilising our state-of-the-art machinery, we deliver reliable and cost-effective precision plastic parts and components of the highest quality to our customers in highly technical industries such as electronics, the automotive industry or construction.
Our expertise lies in low- to mid-volume precision plastic parts for various devices in this segment, providing a viable option for products where low-quality mass production is not an option, still cost-efficiency plays an important role.
In addition to standard injection moulding, we offer insert moulding as well, that is injection moulding to metal parts. Production lines serving these segments are highly automated: parts are removed by robots and quality control is performed by machine vision cameras. Apart from that, we also offer manual assembly services depending on our customers’ needs.
Enclosures and housings keep electronic components protected from the environment. We offer contract manufacturing of various enclosure solutions from basic to robust.
Most common materials for electronics enclosures are:
Mikropakk has been supplying various versatile and high-quality plastic enclosures such as
Plastic components can serve as a cost-effective substitute or addition to metal components in the construction industry due to a variety of advantages they provide:
Precision plastic parts used in construction are usually made of high-performance plastics such as ABS, PC/ABS, PBT, Polyamide, PP filled with strengthening materials, or Glass Fiber additions.
Plastic alone isn’t strong enough to serve as load-bearing material, but can function as a great addition. This is why insert moulding technology proves to be extremely useful in construction applications. While the product remains strong enough due to keeping its metal core, it’ll also gain all advantages of plastic parts.
As for precision plastic parts used in the construction industry, our flagship product is a roof structure support clip designed by our R&D team. The metal insert receives a plastic coating, which improves the product’s insulating properties and eliminates thermal bridges in the roof structure. These parts have been used at various major construction sites from Brazil to Singapore.
Nass Magnet is a market leader manufacturer of electromagnetic connectors and valves for the automotive industry. As a mass producer, they have experienced serious supply shortages before working with Mikropakk, which resulted in a critical situation. As a supplier, we not only had to meet current demand that is already high, but also catch up on production.
First, we refurbished the old moulds, which included the replacement of the entire hot runner system in one of them possibly in a very short time. To be able to meet demand, we dedicated a machine only to Nass products, but occasianally we had to include two other machines in production and eventually managed to catch up on production. Since then, we replaced the old moulds with new ones and have made 6 additional moulds.
Mikropakk has also worked on developing a new Kontakträger that is lighter in weight, simpler in geometry, easier to install and has fewer parts.
The original part was injection moulded and manually fitted with a seal. The goal of the development was to replace this two-step process with 2k injection moulding. The main or hard component was a given by the manufacturer, our engineers had to select a fitting soft component, namely a TPE. After testing 3 types of materials, we concluded that the most frequently used type showcased the best properties along with the hard component.
Thanks to these two successful developments and serving as a reliable contract manufacturer, we are proud to have built up a long-term partnership with the manufacturer.
At Mikropakk, we have established several partially and fully automated production lines, capable of producing millions of plastic parts yearly. In this article, we explore the methods for implementing digitized manufacturing processes and discuss how automating production lines enhances quality across various aspects of manufacturing.
The Kalzip E clip is a seam roof clip moulded from polyamide on an aluminium-zinc coated steel plate. This plastic layer provides a thermal insulation effect, preventing the formation of thermal bridges.
We are ready to compete and prove ourselves in your packaging issues.
