Applications
Insulation Parts and Special Profiles for Nuclear Physics
Special profile parts from polyimide film up to 15 metres long, made for applications where no catalogue part exists.
A 15 metre profile in one piece
For research facilities we produce special profile parts from Kapton polyimide film up to 15 metres long. Parts like these cannot be stamped, and joining several pieces would lose the insulating effect at the seam. They are made with the tool system we developed for folding, forming and bending.
This is what we mean when we say there is no such thing as impossible. These are quantity-of-one jobs where feasibility, not unit price, is the decisive question.
Why polyimide film
Kapton polyimide film withstands continuously high temperatures, stays thin and flexible and keeps its electrical properties under load. In applications with tight space and extreme conditions there is hardly an alternative.
We process the film as cut-to-size sheets, as slit rolls from 4 mm strip width and as folded profiles. Which form is right is settled from your installation situation.
From feasibility talk to finished part
In projects like these the work starts with a technical conversation, not with an order. We check feasibility, propose material and process and document fit, geometry and tolerances in a technical drawing created in our in-house CAD department.
The special tools required are made in our own tool shop. Our specials page shows more work of this kind.

How long can your special profiles be?
We produce profile parts from polyimide film up to 15 metres long in one piece, with no seam in the insulating layer.
Do you produce single pieces?
Yes. In research, quantity of one and small series are the norm. We supply samples and single parts and build the necessary tools ourselves.
Which material do you use?
Usually Kapton polyimide film. It stays thin and flexible, withstands continuously high temperatures and keeps its electrical properties under load.
How do we start such a project?
With a technical conversation about your installation situation. We check feasibility, propose material and process and create the technical drawing in our own CAD department.
