Benefits of plastic parts

Plastic parts have a number of advantages over sheet metal or other metal parts:

On the one hand, plastic components are lighter and therefore contribute less to the overall mass of a construction vehicle. In addition, plastic parts – especially in large quantities – can be produced more cheaply and also faster than metal parts. With all these advantages, however, plastic components are at least as stable and impact resistant as metal components.

We have a high degree of flexibility and can manufacture the desired crane components according to your ideas using our deep drawing and CNC milling production techniques.

Plastic components for construction machinery from swissplast – wheel loader parts

swissplast manufactures wheel loader parts for your construction machinery. This type of construction machinery is heavily stressed by daily use on construction sites and contact with construction materials. Therefore, wheel loader parts are needed that can withstand extreme loads and last for many years without deforming or even breaking. Wheel loader parts from swissplast meet these requirements because they are made from particularly high-quality plastics and in a unique production process. Our wheel loader parts made of polycarbonate are enormously resistant to external influences such as stones, dust or building materials. The wheel loader parts are also designed and manufactured with the greatest care and exactly according to your order, so that they can be integrated into your production process quickly, reliably and without any problems.
