Our company, AFEX GmbH, (http://www.afex-kunststoff.de) was established in 1998 as a innovative daughter company of the technical centre of A-FORM AG (leading manufacturer of moulds and developer of technologies for plastic forming, see video presentation: http://media.kabeljournal.de/www.a-form.de/a-form.mp4). AFEX is a leading German manufacturer of high-grade components from various plastic materials (PA, ABS, PC, PPS, PPV, PEEK) for the professional automotive (VW, BMW, Audi, Bentley and others), medical, consumer goods industries with a headcount of 22 persons and an annual revenue of 2.66 million €. Our goal is to recognize industry needs and develop performance-rich innovative products of the highest quality. Our products are available in more than 27 countries in Europe, America, India and Asia through our marketing and sales department and global network of customers and partners. We also find it important to present our latest technologies and products at the finest exhibitions and conventions worldwide. For 19 years our company has been involved in the manufacturing of complex plastic components using highly diverse materials. In 2013-2017 we developed - from a national fund and our own resource - an advanced plastic material based on basalt fiber fillers (uncoated) allowing significant improvement of plastic products properties and also demonstrated this material and fabrication method for some customers from automotive industry as well as further industries. With the help of the SME instrument funding we wish to further develop our high-potential innovative technology allowing the series production of these highly innovative polyamide (PA) plastic parts reinforced with chopped basalt (PABF) fibers and widely sell them to automotive industry. If the feasibility assessment will have positive result we will continue the project. The EC investment will have its return in 2-3 years after the market entry. ver más
