mikrotechnik HIRT (abbreviated MTH), based in Schramberg, Germany, is establishing itself increasingly as a specialist in small components, micro parts and hybrid parts. In close partnership with its customers, MTH develops highly complex products and components which it produces with advanced technology and process reliability. MTH manufactures these parts on a MicroPower 15/10 from WITTMANN BATTENFELD.
mikrotechnik HIRT, founded by Franz Hirt, is a young, innovative company located in the central Black Forest. Its specialty is the development, design and production of micro parts consisting of plastics combined with metal, as well as complete systems. In this area, MTH has been cooperating closely with WITTMANN BATTENFELD for a number of years. For Franz Hirt, owner-manager of MTH, close cooperation with his partners is a vital success factor. “Optimal results can only be achieved by an honest technological partnership based on mutual trust”, says Hirt.
At MTH, a machine from WITTMANN BATTENFELD’s MicroPower series with 150 kN clamping force has been installed, specially designed for micro and nano injection molding. This machine offers the utmost in terms of precision and cost efficiency, made possible primarily by its two-step screw-and-plunger injection unit with shot volumes ranging from 0.05 to 4 cm3. Thermally homogeneous melt is injected via this aggregate. This enables the production of top-quality parts with absolutely stable manufacturing processes and short cycle times.
Working together in close partnership, MTH and WITTMANN BATTENFELD have jointly developed the 5-axis MicroPower into a 6-axis production cell. With this equipment, parts with unscrewing functions, helical micro cogwheels and shafts with inclination profiles can now be manufactured with high precision.
