We place great emphasis on practical solutions to technical problems. In our metallurgy laboratory, we can cast prototyping melts up to 500 kg and process them using forming and heat treatment technologies. In the field of additive manufacturing, we deal with the optimisation of forming and cutting tools and development of customised components. Our materials testing laboratory offers comprehensive services in the areas of light and scanning electron microscopy, mechanical testing and the determination of thermo-dynamic data of materials. We also carry out optimization of complex technological processes using computer simulation.

We cooperate as a development partner and accredited materials testing laboratory with many leading industrial companies, such as Apple, Volkswagen, Doosan, Boeing, Swatch and many others. These and other customers benefit not only from the top equipment of our laboratories and professional competencies of our experts, but above all from a practically oriented approach to investigating development issues.
