About 3D-Schilling
3D-Schilling GmbH is a specialist in plastic parts manufacturing based in Sondershausen-Oberspier in Thuringia. The company supports customers along the entire development and manufacturing chain: from component design using CAD and Moldflow simulation, through prototypes and small series via 3D printing and stereolithography, to the construction of custom injection molds and series production of plastic parts including assembly, final fitting and shipping. With CNC milling machines, robotic cells and injection molding machines with clamping forces of up to 350 t, lot sizes from one-off parts to automated large-scale series are covered. Further services include 3D scanning, vacuum casting, laser welding, engraving as well as automation and special machinery construction. Since its founding in 1993, the company, with 11–50 employees, has manufactured several thousand molds, millions of series plastic parts and hundreds of thousands of 3D-printed components.
