Inteplast has reached a major milestone: 600 million high-precision injection-moulded plastic gears produced and delivered worldwide. This achievement reflects the company’s expertise in complex plastic injection moulding and its ability to meet the strict quality, repeatability and durability requirements of the automotive industry.
Plastic gears are essential in modern automotive systems, including wipers, electric motors, actuators, pumps and safety or comfort mechanisms. They offer advantages such as weight reduction, lower noise, corrosion resistance and design flexibility. However, their production requires advanced engineering, as even minimal deviations in geometry, surface quality or material behaviour can affect performance, durability and reliability.
Inteplast supports these demanding applications through an integrated approach that includes material selection, mould design and manufacturing, industrialisation, serial production and quality control. With automotive capabilities in gears, gear overmolding, 2K parts and other technical components, supported by IATF 16949 certification, the company ensures consistent performance at high volume.
Reaching 600 million gears is more than a production figure. It is proof of long-term reliability, technical know-how and the trust of Tier-1 manufacturers who rely on Inteplast for performance-critical automotive applications.
With more than 50 years of experience and production plants in Spain and the Czech Republic, Inteplast continues to position itself as a trusted contract manufacturing partner for high-performance plastic components.
