About us
G. Schmid GmbH is an owner-managed family business in plastics engineering, founded in 1990 in Bissingen an der Teck. The company produces technical injection-molded parts from thermoplastics in single- and multi-component processes (2K) with a rotating index plate, both horizontally and vertically as well as on a separate level. A core competence is the overmolding and insert-molding of metal components such as brass bushings, contacts, pins and printed circuit boards. The service portfolio also includes project management with design, Moldflow analyses, prototype tools, sampling according to EMPB/PPAP as well as assembly, population and logistics solutions such as JiT/JiS, Kanban and consignment warehousing. On 17 computer-controlled Arburg injection molding machines (25–220 t clamping force, networked via the Arburg ALS host computer system), parts with a shot weight of 0.5 to 400 g are produced. Customers come mainly from the automotive, electronics, medical and toy industries, including Audi, Continental, ifm and Märklin.
