The Company
AMS-TEC GmbH is a Swiss plastics processor based in Däniken that has been manufacturing products from acrylic glass and similar thermoplastics since 1998. The company processes semi-finished shapes such as sheets, tubes and rods (round and square) made of acrylic glass (Plexiglas, POLYCASA, Perspex), PETG (Spectar, Vectan), polycarbonate (Makrolon, Lexan), PVC (Forex, Kömatex), rigid PVC, PS, ABS as well as engineering plastics. The range of services includes cutting, milled-edge polishing, hot bending, machining with CNC milling machines, bonding, assembly of subassemblies as well as laser engraving and laser cutting. AMS-TEC manufactures from sample or one-off pieces through to series products, develops prototypes on request prior to series production and supports customers with planning. Applications include, among other things, custom car modules and camping boxes for luggage compartments. Thanks to its manageable company size with minimal administration, the company offers an attractive price-performance ratio and短 handles all process steps from a single source.

Materials
Acrylic glass (Plexiglas, POLYCASA, Perspex)
Most important material, processed as sheets, tubes and rods for transparent components and prototypes.
PETG (Spectar, Vectan)
Tough thermoplastic semi-finished material for milled, bent and laser-cut parts.
Polycarbonate (Makrolon, POLYCASA, Lexan)
Impact- and shock-resistant material for structural applications in mechanical and vehicle engineering.
PVC (Forex, Kömatex) and rigid PVC
Lightweight foam and rigid PVC for cutting, hot bending and milled components.
PS and ABS
Standard thermoplastics for series parts and technical applications.
CNC milling
Machining of plastic semi-finished products from sample to series production.
Laser cutting and laser engraving
Contour-precise cutting and marking of plastic sheets.
Hot bending
Edge-precise forming of thermoplastic sheets for custom components.
