Launch of the ReEnAdd research project: increasing energy efficiency and recycling through innovative additives

KOMOS is laun­ching the ReE­n­Add rese­arch pro­ject tog­e­ther with pro­ject part­ners in May 2025 with the aim of making pro­duc­tion pro­ces­ses in pla­s­tics forming more ener­gy- and resour­ce-effi­ci­ent and recy­cling rejects in the best pos­si­ble way. Pro­ject start and objec­ti­ves We are plea­sed to announ­ce the offi­ci­al start of our new ReE­n­Add rese­arch and deve­lo­p­ment pro­ject, which will run from 01.05.2025 to 30.04.2027. Pro­ject topic: Incre­asing ener­gy effi­ci­en­cy and recy­cling […].

KOMOS at the AI Barcamp Jena: Where innovation meets the future

On Novem­ber 14–15, 2025, the renow­ned AI Bar­camp will take place in Jena — and KOMOS will be the­re as an inno­va­ti­ve manu­fac­tu­ring part­ner. For us, this event is a stra­te­gic invest­ment in the future: a direct exch­an­ge with lea­ding AI experts from sci­ence, busi­ness and rese­arch. Why KOMOS and AI belong tog­e­ther For over three deca­des, KOMOS has been deve­lo­ping pre­cise solu­ti­ons […]

Fully integrated quality assurance 4.0 — How KOMOS networks measurement technology, production and documentation

On Octo­ber 21/22, 2025, KOMOS will be pre­sen­ting inno­va­ti­ve approa­ches to qua­li­ty assu­rance in Med­Tech pro­duc­tion at elmug4future at the Ernst Abbe Uni­ver­si­ty of Appli­ed Sci­en­ces in Jena. In an indus­try in which tracea­bi­li­ty and qua­li­ty assu­rance are indis­pensable, the requi­re­ments for effi­ci­en­cy and fle­xi­bi­li­ty are also incre­asing. KOMOS shows how qua­li­ty assu­rance can be seam­less­ly inte­gra­ted into pro­duc­tion — stan­dard-com­pli­ant, eco­no­mic­al and future-pro­of. Our […]

Plastics — This is how we do it

Our injec­tion mol­ding pro­cess is a pri­ma­ry mol­ding pro­cess. The pla­s­tic is lique­fied or pla­s­ti­ci­zed using an injec­tion moul­ding machi­ne. The pla­s­tic is fed into the injec­tion mol­ding pro­cess in the form of gra­nu­la­te and then injec­ted into a mold under pres­su­re. This mold is cal­led a tool and has mold clo­sing forces of 150 kN to 2,500 kN. Insi­de the mold, the pla­s­tic pas­ses through […]

Thermoplastic elastomers & bright parts

Ther­mo­pla­s­tic elas­to­mers (TPE) com­bi­ne the advan­ta­ges of rub­ber and pla­s­tic and are ful­ly recy­clable. They are ela­s­tic, plia­ble and fle­xi­ble at room tem­pe­ra­tu­re. The pro­per­ties of TPE allow a repea­ted forming pro­cess. Hard and soft TPE com­pon­ents can be com­bi­ned (mul­ti-com­po­nent tech­no­lo­gy). The­se elas­to­mers are food-safe, non-toxic and the­r­e­fo­re also sui­ta­ble for the manu­fac­tu­re of toys. Fur­ther advan­ta­ges of […]
