motion plastics in actuators and small gearboxes

We develop and produce lubrication-free components for actuators such as those used in length, height and tilt adjustments of seats, in lumbar supports, locking systems, window regulators, sliding roofs, rear view cameras, engine thermal management or lighting systems. For these applications, we have plain bearings, lead screws and lead screw nuts as well as gears and gearing components in our product range.
