Hybrid - Plastic-Metal Components
Hybrid components combine the advantages of both base materials—plastic and metal—and enable enhanced functionality
Technology Description
Multi-stage processes, based on metal stamping and injection molding, combine both key technologies from the SCHERDEL technology portfolio. Pre-punched or bent metal parts can be overmolded with plastic or assembled into plastic components. Testing concepts for mechanical or electrical characteristics ensure the proper functioning of the hybrid component or system.
