Cooler thanks to copper in the core
S&S Werkzeugbau GmbH
Spritzgusstechnik
Tool and mold making
S&S Werkzeugbau manufactures complete injection moulds entirely in-house – from design through to the initial moulding. However, the mould makers make an exception in the case of a reliable cooling solution for narrow cross-sections: Hermle Maschinenbau uses metal-powder application technology (MPA) to integrate copper into mould cores, thereby optimising heat outflow in the injection moulding process.

Furniture construction
Generative manufacturing with MPA technology in practical applications – how the "technology and production innovators" Julius Blum GmbH and Berthold Hermle AG complement each other in applying solution-oriented new tool making procedures.
Copper cools constantly
Alhorn GmbH & Co. KG
Tool technology
Alhorn views the MPA technology from the HERMLE subsidiary HMG as advantageous in every respect, offering shorter cycles and more stable processes and, in some cases, even serving as the enabler. The precision tool maker always turns to generative services when traditional cooling technologies become inadequate.
