One supplier.
Two routes.
One decision.
MIM from Europe or Asia — one quality standard, one responsibility. We develop, cost and source metal-injection-molding components for technical buyers, design engineers and managing directors — and we advise you honestly on which route is right for your requirement.

01 — Capabilities
From drawing to series-ready MIM component.
We support the entire development process — from MIM-compliant design review through to assembly-ready delivery to your line.
01 / 06
Feasibility & DfMIM
Design review for undercuts, wall-thickness ratios, debinding and sinter geometry. FMEA-based risk assessment before tool release.

Guide price & costing
Price calculator based on volume, feedstock cost, cycle estimate and yield. Transparently documented and traceable for purchasing and controlling.
Open calculator
03 / 06
Tooling & prototyping
Tools with multi-cavity, family molds, hot-runner variants. Sinter prototypes from series geometry — no SLA approximations.
Cost model
04 / 06
Series production
Injection molding, debinding (catalytic / thermal / solvent), sintering in hydrogen or vacuum furnaces. Cpk ≥ 1,33.
Materials
05 / 06
Post-processing & assembly
Heat treatment, HIP, sizing, grinding, laser marking, passivation, assembly into assemblies.

Warehousing & kanban
Consignment stock, VMI, call-off models. Delivery call-offs directly from the customer ERP (SAP, Infor, proALPHA) via EDI or a standardized CSV interface.

02 — Worked examples
Typical components, costed out.
Each card represents a completed customer project — anonymised and published with the customer’s consent. Component, material, volume and requirement come from the project; the commercial figures are recalculated and disclosed. So you can follow our reasoning on your own component.

03 — Arguments
Six reasons why purchasing and engineering agree.
Not "Why MIM?", but "Why this model?". The following points address specific weaknesses in classic direct purchasing.
01
No maverick buying
One supplier number in the ERP. Departments can no longer order around compliance — without slowing down the process.
02
A decision in hours, not weeks
Guide price ≤ 24 h, full matrix ≤ 72 h for series enquiries. Release-ready documentation without an additional loop.
03
Resilience through dual sourcing
Both routes remain open for every geometry — you decide. On request, we qualify and sample the second route alongside: if a plant fails, the redirection then comes from the network, not from a crisis meeting.
04
Total Cost of Ownership
The costing transparently includes tool amortization, sample inspection, logistics, warehousing costs and supplier management.
05
Standard-compliant documentation
IATF 16949, ISO 13485, EN 9100 are met by the appropriate network partner depending on the industry — we supply the consolidated certificate package.
06
Bottleneck and failure scenario
Special call-off, bridging quantity, short-term relocation within the network — without re-qualifying the supplier.
