With our network of production sites, service points, warehouses and, consultants, we support as a systems supplier all major car manufacturers worldwide. Around 2/3 of all cars are equipped with OKE products. Our portfolio includes plastic components, hybrid components, and assemblies for all areas and very different requirements. Our variety of manufacturing processes and materials offers a great deal of scope for trying out completely new ideas.
In addition to standard plastics, we also process metals, composites, fibers, additives and materials specially developed for the application to achieve the strength, impact resistance, accuracy, and stability required in road traffic or to create a high-quality appearance.
We minimise the time and effort required for design validations through 3D printing processes, prototype tools, laser technology, and simulations. Our functional samples and prototypes enable rapid iteration.
Whether extrusion or injection molding: We know how to join two or more materials inline through force- and/or form-fit connections. We equip trims and components for automotive electronics with circumferential seals, save high-quality covering materials by using textile complementary materials for our profiles, and process fibers and metallic elements directly in the tool or in typically fully automated downstream processes. The variety of technologies, machines, and plants of almost any size, combined with our many years of experience, opens up opportunities for value creation potential analysis, functional integrations, and stable processes. Versatility is our hallmark: Our injection molding competence centres produce multi-part components ranging from a few grams to 9.5 kilograms.
A good example of the interplay of different processes is our product for Air Ride suspension systems. The air spring cover is assembled from two components in the hot gas process, with each part having an individual DMC code. This ensures that important production parameters remain traceable even after years. Before delivery, each air spring cover undergoes a gas test for quality control. We leave nothing to chance!
Plastic pipes for the tailgate of vehicles are required in very different sizes, for simple small cars up to large luxury saloons. The system consists of three pipes (drive, torsion, and output) with thin wall thicknesses which must interlock precisely. In addition, the demands on the surface are high!
We produce the length variants particularly efficiently by buffering and cutting the base products to length. After the fully automated tool removal, the injection molds are temporarily stored until they have cooled down completely. A separate downstream process unit for each of the pipes then takes care of the cutting and chamfering. The result: A perfect interplay of the three components and an effortless implementation of infinitely variable lengths thanks to an efficient process without additional tool inserts!
