Plastic and composite structure engineering
We engineer plastic and composite structures and products for the needs of high-technology industries. We specialize in the engineering of structures with challenging durability and weight requirements.
Turn to us when you need help in the engineering of mechanical parts, internal structures, or outer shells of plastic products. The most challenging plastic casting designs we have engineered have been consumer electronics, defense technology products, and medical devices.
Our competencies related to composites are focused on the utilization of carbon-fiber-based technologies in products and parts that require optimization in relation to durability and weight requirements. We have long-term cooperation with a defense sector customer that entails the use of prepreg and SMC technologies in the production of carbon fiber parts and structures that pass strict weight requirements and can also withstand extreme forces. Additionally, we have designed demanding composite parts for our customers in the aviation industry.
We provide introductory training for repairing composite structures as well as analysis and calculation services for the design of plastic and composite parts, in addition to engineering services.
Additive Manufacturing (AM)
- The cost of manufacturing structures that are optimized for structural integrity and fluid dynamics continues to decrease and AM technologies also enable completely new innovations.
- AM manufacturing in maintenance locations and manufacturing spare parts and tools locally cuts down the duration of shutdowns and improves maintenance management.
- This facilitates competitive tendering of manufacturing and reduces commitment to specialized manufacturing methods.
- In hybrid structures, manufacturing costs can be optimized by combining AM technology with traditional manufacturing methods and utilizing both more and less expensive materials according to their properties.
Our AM structure engineering can help you save mass, energy and costs in machinery and equipment.
Additive Manufacturing (AM) allows the engineering of structures and parts optimized for structural integrity and fluid dynamics. By engineering optimized structures, we can help you save on material and energy and often even in manufacturing costs. We have studied especially the engineering and optimization of large (>1 m) structures using AM technologies.
Together with our 3D printing partners, we can offer turnkey deliveries of part and structure engineering or rapid prototypes for product development projects. Being able to combine parts already during manufacture allows for shorter delivery times of tailored structures and reduces the number of parts and the assembly work required. Several metal and polymer materials are available and 3D printing can be carried out near the location of use or assembly, if needed.
We are engaged in developing Finnish AM competencies together with other members of the 3D printing ecosystem FAME.

Machinery and components
- Understanding the functionality of equipment
- Material choices
- Technical engineering
- Documentation
- Managing the manufacture of challenging sets of equipment.
Do you need expertise in the engineering of production plant machinery or related procurement? Our multi-industry competence enables us to carry out the most demanding industrial machinery and component projects.
We can provide you with all engineering work related to production plant changes and life cycle management. We are also experienced in the management of demanding projects that involve several engineering functions.
For us, typical projects include moving equipment or a process within a production plant and other alterations to equipment. Many projects include laser scanning, layout design, modelling of existing structures, mechanical, electrical, automation and process engineering as well as procurement consulting, production simulation, and project management.
We also carry out engineering projects according to the EPCM model, which relieves your organization of the stresses of project management and implementation. This operating model allows hassle-free deliveries even when there are specific technological constraints related to the implementation.
Layout engineering
