Development / Engineering

LS will develop "your" plastic component for you. Our creative Development Department is equipped with the full range of cutting-edge equipment and takes every advantage of all the possibilities provided by modern software and metrology:
  • Filling simulation
  • Warpage calculation
  • Process simulation
  • FEM calculations
  • Thermodynamic analyses
  • Simultaneous engineering
  • Fibre orientation
  • Application-specific simulations
  • Industrial image-processing
We also offer in-depth consultancy on the technical aspects of your applications. Supported by extensive hardware, we are able to simulate individual applications and therefore provide valuable data for the development of a component, for example the coefficients of friction and wear rates for bearing bushes and sliding components.
The following is some of the equipment available for use on application-specific developments:
  • Pin-on-disc tribometer
  • Plain bearing test rig
  • Test rig for sealing rings (leakage and moment of drag)
We also work with leading research institutes for the determination of other data.
