Precision Components with Full Service

Custom precision metal parts manufactured using investment casting, MIM, sintering, or die-forging processes. From technical consulting to on-time delivery.

Four processes for custom precision parts

We manufacture custom precision metal parts in medium to large production runs. Which of the four processes is appropriate depends on the geometry, material, load, tolerances, and quantity. The delivery state ranges from raw parts to assemblies ready for installation.

Investment Casting

With the investment casting process (after the lost wax process), you benefit from unlimited design freedom. Send you inquiry now!

MIM

The MIM process makes it possible to produce the smallest and most complex moulded parts. Discover the advantages of the process at Richter Formteile. Send you inquiry now!

Sintering

The sintering process (sintering technology) is an uncomplicated way to produce moulded parts. Discover the advantages of the process at Richter Formteile. Send you inquiry now!

Drop Forging

Drop forging process: Optimal fibre flow with first-class structural strength. Discover the advantages of the process at Richter Formteile. Send you inquiry now!

Not sure yet which process is right for your component?

We'll review your requirements and advise you on your selection.

Team meeting with management and current components with drawings.

Global manufacturing requires responsibility.

We manage production worldwide and remain your responsible contractual partner in Germany.

A single missing component can bring an entire production line to a standstill. That is why we take responsibility for quality, availability, and on-time delivery. Contracts, specifications, and quality requirements are managed in Germany. We produce, finance, and stock the planned demand.

From the drawing to the finished mass-produced product

You send us your drawing and the key project details. We review the requirements, select the materials and processes, coordinate production, and oversee your component all the way through to delivery.

Our Full-Service Solution for Your Precision Parts

Please send us your drawing along with details regarding the application, material, desired quantity, and delivery date.

We evaluate whether and how your component can be manufactured in a technically and economically viable manner.

Together, we determine the appropriate manufacturing process, the material, and the relevant quality requirements.

You will receive a detailed quote. Once you place your order, we will coordinate tooling, production planning, and the production of initial prototypes.

Once you give your approval, mass production will begin. We will oversee production, inspect the components, and document the agreed-upon quality characteristics.

We manufacture the planned quantity in advance, finance the production volume, and store the inspected components in Leonberg.

You place orders for the agreed-upon lot sizes as needed and pay only upon order placement, and only for the quantity actually delivered.
