Design Injection-molded Interior Design Parts for Cars

Producing High-quality Products with ENGEL Technologies

When it comes to interior design in cars in the automotive industry, high-quality aesthetics and haptics are basic requirements. With ENGEL injection molding process technologies, you can economically produce plastic parts that meet these requirements. Reduce production costs by using recyclate in the part core which is then covered by a design surface and therefore invisible to the end user.

Advantages of ENGEL Solutions for Producing Parts for Interior Design in Cars

ENGEL offers you a wide range of injection molding processes to enhance the quality of your automotive interior components design or integrate functionality: fabric and film back molding, in-mold decoration (IMD), PUR flooding, and foam injection molding. Or you can use fiber composite materials to produce lightweight components. Intelligent surfaces, such as smart panels, can also be created using a combination of these injection molding processes. Our experts will support you from selecting the best process for molding your parts to the start of series production.

Efficient production of large parts with duo machines

Our duo two-platen machine offers plenty of space for large molds with a small footprint. Efficient servo-hydraulic drives ensure reduced energy consumption thanks to their low power loss. For particularly high efficiency and precision, we offer electric injection units for our duo large machine series.

Save costs by processing recycled material

Many components for the automotive industry have to be produced just-in-time. Unscheduled machine downtime often means delivery failure. This can lead to high costs and penalties. At ENGEL you will find a comprehensive service portfolio: Predictive maintenance, 24/7 support from over 720 service team members worldwide, and much more. We keep spare parts in stock at more than 70 logistics centers around the globe for fast delivery.
