68 new parts in just 16 weeks<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The swissplast group realized the complete interior cladding for a European streetcar project of a well-known train manufacturer (Stadler Rail) – from side and passageway cladding to rear wall cladding.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Only 16 weeks passed between the signing of the LOI and the delivery of all parts for the first train composition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Engineering in record time<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In just 7 weeks, our experts developed and designed 68 complex components including 3D and 2D data creation – with the highest demands on vertical integration, including integrated ventilation guidance.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    Toolmaking in parallel processes<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    At the same time, an impressive 17 cooled aluminum deep-drawing tools, high-precision CNC 5-axis trimming tools and a large number of gluing and assembly devices were created.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

      Customer-specific aluminum extrusions, rubber profiles, fire-certified semi-finished products (EN 45545) and hundreds of sheet metal attachments – all perfectly coordinated and ready for component assembly.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

        Due to the very tight schedule, the sample phase had to be dispensed with – and yet every part fitted technically right away. Compositions 2 and 3 were also delivered in full two weeks later.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

          With two experienced project managers and proven partners in the supply chain, the swissplast group efficiently guided the project to its goal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

          Thanks to personnel support from other plants, products could be run in at the same time in the CNC department and assembly was completed smoothly. simple \/ fast \/ reliable.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
