From idea to series production

We are your full-range service provider for thermoplastic composites.

thermoPre ENGINEERING

Your competent partner for composite components, manufacturing processes, and tool design

We are at your side as a competent partner if you want to expand your product portfolio with new composite components or replace conventional components with new lightweight structures in order to increase the performance of your applications. We offer you custom-fit FRP solutions for all industries and, on request, full-service engineering: from idea through technology development to implementation for series production. The hurdles for the use of new fibre-reinforced (FRP) components are usually lower than expected and can be easily overcome with strong partners.

Our certified quality management system reflects our high quality standards

Our quality management system is based on thermoPre ENGINEERING GmbH's principles of quality, customer satisfaction and occupational safety. It meets the requirements of DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and has been certified by TÜV SÜD since 2021.

Our services, tailor-made for your application

Reduce the mass of your components with new materials!

thermoPre ENGINEERING bietet Ihnen passgenau FKV-Lösungen für Ihre Branche. Bereits bei der Konstruktion und Auslegung Ihrer Bauteile beziehen wir innovative Konzepte ein. So ermöglicht der gezielte Einsatz von Verstärkungsstrukturen in Lastrichtung die Entwicklung eines optimal an die realen Belastungen angepassten Bauteiles mit höchstem Leichtbaugrad bei minimalem Materialeinsatz. Dies ermöglicht bewegten Bauteilen in Ihrer Anwendung, aufgrund des geringeren Masseträgheitsmomentes, deutlich höhere Dreh- und Taktzahlen.Für jede Anforderung im Bereich faserverstärkter thermoplastischer Composites können wir Ihnen die aktuell geeignetsten Lösungsansätze vorstellen und für ihr Projekt adaptieren.

Our services include:

Load-adapted semi-finished products

Development, production and distribution

Dimensioning

Development and application of new calculation methods for the optimal design of fibre-reinforced plastic components

Material cards

Characterisation of the complex material behaviour of lightweight materials

Components

Holistic view of component manufacture: from development and design through the process chain and component testing to prototypes and pre-series products

Recycling

Recycling of thermoplastics with and without fiber reinforcement and technical elastomers

Innovative and connected

Strong partnerships ensure you have access to the latest technologies.

In order to reliably use new types of composites in series production and compete on the market, know-how about traditional and alternative materials, characteristic values and production technologies is necessary and in demand. For optimal results, it is necessary to know the behaviour of the composites exactly. What properties do they have, how can they be processed in the best possible way, which process parameters are decisive for consistent quality?

thermoPre ENGINEERING pflegt deshalb einen engen Kontakt zu regionalen Forschungseinrichtungen und ist in ein regionales F&E-Netzwerk eingebunden. Wir sind Mitglied im Composites United e.V., dem internationalen Netzwerk für faserbasierten Leichtbau.

Mit uns kommen Sie in den Genuss umfassender Expertise. Wir sind am Puls der Zeit. Ohne Umwege erhalten Sie alles aus einer Hand.
