Product & process development
Our experienced project managers are at the cutting edge of science and continuously monitor the world market in terms of technology, quality, price and adherence to deadlines.
The wealth of knowledge that has been built up over decades through a large number of projects that have already been implemented is precisely applied, which ensures the satisfaction of our customers. We offer our customers worldwide professional product and process development under our own project management, which maps the entire production stages.
In order to ensure the best possible quality of our products, we also operate our own tool shop, which focuses on optimizing cycle time and quality and which goes hand in hand with our project management and production. The result is minimized distances between the production steps, which means that we guarantee our customers that deadlines are met and projects are implemented as quickly as possible.
Product developments
We develop products and ensure optimal and efficient processes in such that we make use of Simultaneous-Engineering. In so doing, we can avoid unnecessary time losses and assure product success and a rapid market launch. Simultaneous engineering is just one term in our close and trusting cooperation with our customers. You are accompanied by ONE contact person who is responsible for you and answers all your questions. Cooperations with other companies as well as universities and institutions make sure that the best knowledge and quality are used for your products.
Design/Construction
With perfect component design to serial production. Due to a close cooperation already in the phase of idea finding and development, together we find the relevant savings potentials which significantly impact all further phases concerning costs and time optimizations. This means that cetto customers receive structurally optimized products and system solutions that have been tested for feasibility and are ready for series production. We already consult you in the beginning of the project in regard of design and optimized materials and we can elaborate cost optimized improvement potentials with simulation programs.
Simulations
cetto possesses the necessary practical knowledge with decades of experience with installing of insert molding machines, mold validation of first samples as well as process optimization. With the help of the simulation tool Moldflow we conduct filling simulations and cover the whole insert molding cycle. Apart from compact insert molding we can simulate all special procedures of insert molding, for example multiple component insert molding.
Rapid Prototyping
3D-Printing, stereolithographic, multi jet modeling, aluminium pre-series tools, steel pre-series tools are only some examples for tools we use to produce experimental tools or hand samples. Due to our tool acquisition in China we can also realize experimental tools quickly and effectively. Exorbitant short cycle times for tools Made in China even offer the opportunity to abdicate prototype or low volume production tools and to start right away with the serial tool in similar time periods.
Security
Our products have to fulfill different requirements: break resistance, impact resistance, flame resistance, temperature resistance, are only some examples. To fulfill these requirements and ensure steady quality assurance for long production cycles, we make use of different procedures. These are apart from using insert molding simulations and the numeric structural mechanics also diverse methods for quality assurance like the optic 3D measurement technology, CT scan, leak testing, or electronic and optic inline measurements. Due to thorough documentations we also ensure traceability.
Process development
Zero-defect quality from the first injection cycle. The consistent increase in quality performance is an essential part of our zero-defect strategy. Depending on the requirement profile, we equip our tools with various sensors for process control and process reliability. Extended visual inspection systems for particularly quality-critical features are used where tool technologies and monitoring options on the injection molding machine have their limits.
Automatization/Robotic
To be able to deliver the newest product generations safely, effectively and cost optimized, we use handlings and robotic systems. The production systems are adapted individually due to the customer product and developed from our staff - also in cooperation with external service contractors.
Tool technology
In order to be able to procure tools under optimized economic conditions, we have preferred suppliers in Germany, Portugal, the Czech Republic and China.
In every country we have experienced project managers on site who constantly monitor the market with regard to technology, quality, price and adherence to deadlines and who are very familiar with a large number of projects that have already been carried out. We offer our customers worldwide professional tool procurement under our own project management.
In order to ensure the best possible quality of our products, we also operate our own tool shop. The focus is on optimizing cycle times and quality.
Tradition meets high tech.
Optimized for the future thanks to automation and roboticsTo be able to deliver the newest product generations safely, effectively and cost optimized, we use handlings and robotic systems. The production systems are adapted individually due to the customer product and developed from our staff - also in cooperation with external service contractors.
Success with a system.
Our end-to-end project management opens up potential for optimizationThe main focuses of our products are used in the two market segments automotive and electronics. Several years ago we succeeded in taking the decisive step from being a pure parts manufacturer to becoming a component and system supplier. Vehicle access system solutions are one of many examples. Here, too, excellent quality with a convincing price / performance ratio and "time-to-market" play a decisive role. Consistent project management with only one contact person for the entire development and implementation phase is the success factor and a key distinguishing feature compared to many competitors.
Know-how and visions.
Medium-sized flexibility with industrial cloutThe idea always comes before the innovation. Implemented with a lot of knowledge and experience, we achieve results that are impressive. Our flat hierarchies and fast decision-making processes help to find efficient and cost-optimized solutions for the benefit of our customers. From the planning to the JIS / JIT - delivered system solution, the close cooperation with our customers brings real product advantages right from the development phase. This can be seen in the concept phase with the examination of feasibility, efficiency, material selection or the search for savings potential as well as in the production phase. Our solutions meet the constantly increasing product requirements for ecological compatibility, functionality, smallness or complexity. As a flexible partner, we implement this knowledge quickly and efficiently in quantities.
Holistic solutions - turnkey.
Forward-lookingIn addition to the economic approach, we see the ecological orientation of our developments and production processes as a strategic objective for the coming years. In addition to the energy management that has been in place for a long time, we can proudly refer to co-developments in hybrid technologies or interesting approaches to the use of biodegradable raw, auxiliary and operating materials. Developing new system solutions for the constantly increasing requirements of our supplier industry always requires new ideas and increasing know-how. On the one hand, great potential for development services, manufacturing knowledge and system solutions is required, on the other hand, speed, quality and, of course, economy are what count.
