About TECNOPLAST
TECNOPLAST GmbH, headquartered in Höchst (Vorarlberg, Austria), develops and manufactures technical functional parts made of plastic and metal. Its core competencies are plastic injection molding with thermoplastics such as polycarbonate, polyamide, polyacetal, thermoplastic polyurethane and elastomers, as well as Metal Injection Molding (MIM), i.e. metal powder injection molding, with stainless steel and sintered steel. In the hybrid process, metal and plastic components are combined into composite parts, for example by overmolding steel axles or metal pins. In addition, the company offers consulting, tool design and engineering, prototyping, machining post-processing, surface finishing such as trovalizing and Zn-Ni plating, as well as assembly of modules and packaging. Customers come from the toolmaking, automotive and dental industries, window construction, intralogistics, communications technology and consumer products; the collaboration with some customers, such as SFS, has existed for over 40 years.
