Measuring extrusion profiles

Custom-made prototypes

From a minimum quantity of over 10 kg per order to an unlimited maximum for series production.

What is a prototype?

A prototype is an initial model of an extruded profile, designed to test its design and functionality. Customers often opt for a prototype first to verify the design and functionality before proceeding with large-scale production.

The benefits of prototypes at Mifa

Prototypes offer significant advantages on the path to series production. With a low starting level, the entry threshold for production is also relatively low. This means that an initial version of a product can be developed and tested more quickly. Thanks to this version, we can implement design and functional specifications at an early stage, saving time and costs in later production phases. The development of prototypes also provides the opportunity to refine and optimise the design before commencing series production.

All techniques under one roof

At Mifa, we extrude from as little as 10 kg, making it suitable for both prototypes and small series. The mould costs for profiles are relatively low, allowing for quick cost recovery. Our high-tech environment is designed for high volumes of extruded profiles, including post-processing such as CNC machining, surface treatments, and assembly. All of this takes place under one roof, ensuring a streamlined and efficient production process.

From prototypes to high and low volumes

At Mifa, we are happy to assist you, whether it’s developing a prototype or producing a series of aluminium extrusion profiles. Mifa has the expertise and capabilities to meet your needs. By leveraging our extensive experience in precision extrusion and post-processing, we can deliver high-quality products that meet the highest standards of quality and precision. These products can be supplied in both high and low volumes.

Since we offer all our techniques under one roof, we can set up complete production lines to ensure consistent quality in series production.
