From the initial idea and design through to precise production and final commissioning, RICO supports every project with the highest level of expertise and state-of-the-art technology. We place particular emphasis on innovation, quality and on-time implementation in order to create tools that guarantee optimum production processes and the best component quality. Customer-specific requirements and complex technical challenges are reliably mastered - for durable and efficient solutions in injection molding.
LSR and HTV injection molds
RICO develops and manufactures high-precision LSR and HTV injection molds for demanding applications in series production.
Multi-component tools
RICO specializes in multi-component moulds that enable complex material combinations in a single, precise injection moulding process.
Automation
Automation solutions directly in toolmaking ensure efficient, reliable and fully automated production processes.
Turnkey systems
Perfectly coordinated complete solutions comprising tools, automation and process integration from a single source.
Co-Development
A key success factor is the early process integration of design and toolmaking. This significantly increases efficiency, especially in complex silicone injection molding.
OUR TOOLS
With its Smartline and Topline tools, RICO Group is once again setting new standards in tool technology and offering its customers innovative, efficient and cost-saving solutions.
Topline tools are characterized by their individual adaptation to the respective product and offer the longest possible service life and best performance. These tools are specially designed to meet the most demanding requirements and offer tailor-made solutions for maximum precision and efficiency in a compact space.
The Smartline mould concept is based on standardization and enables the greatest possible use of common parts as well as easy exchangeability for cavity inserts. Smartline offers a solution approach with 2-plate and center-plate molds with a total of eight molds per concept.
Advantages of the tools
Fast set-up times thanks to the exchange of cold or hot interchangeable inserts directly in the injection molding machine.
Fast maintenance due to open cold runner without moving parts.
Reduced maintenance costs thanks to long-lasting cold runner nozzles (several million cycles).
No expensive repairs, as the tool can be closed when cold.
Low production costs thanks to the 24/7 operation of RICO tools
Up to 40 % energy savings thanks to compact design
