Our integrated consulting including prototype construction, mould making and series tools – in cooperation with foundry specialists – ensures the lasting realisation of synergy effects that further set our services apart.
Product development and design for industry
Our Development department is engaged in process and product development. All of the Schlote Group’s design engineers work with modern CAD systems that support prototyping with CAM at the company level.
