Our Inserts for Food Container lids have optimized conformal cooling solutions, enabling our customers to run a stable and highly efficient production with a minimized cost per plastic part produced. With more homogeneous temperature distribution, our inserts enable improved productivity and can reduce the overall cycle time by up to 15% compared to conventionally manufactured products. Many producers of food container lids have tested our AM solutions and confirmed the increased profitability by using our corrosion resistant inserts for food container lids.

  • Improved cycle time up to 15% –> increased productivity
  • Homogeneous temperature distribution due to conformal cooling -> less warpage (improved part quality)
  • Higher wear resistance –> lifetime increase compared to copper beryllium inserts
  • High ductility –> safety against cracks
  • Corrosion resistant material –> improved crack resistance
