T.S.T. Srl | 38 years of Custom-Made Thermoplastic Items

Customer challenge

The company T.S.T. S.r.l., established in 1982, was born as a screen printing and thermo-printing business and then specialized in injection molding a few years later, the current core business of the company. Parallel to the molding of thermoplastic technopolymers with mono and bi-injection technologies, the company is equipped with a Tooling Department able to assist the customer in the co-design, design and construction of molds and related equipment necessary for processing and testing. Engineering and technical know-how are the strength to complete a "customer focused" service.

Project goals

T.S.T. Srl is able to offer the customer a complete service that supports all stages of the production process and transforms the ideas of its customers into finished products. The concepts pass, in fact, from the industrialization department in which all the documentation and 3D drawings necessary for the realization of the product are produced and then pass, through a detailed quality control and final validation, to the actual production process. Protagonist of a brilliant commercial, technological and structural growth, T.S.T. Srl has always incorporated technological innovation and high process automation as a business strategy, also to cope with a market that requires increasingly higher quality products.

Solution

The following Autodesk solutions have been implemented: 1) Autodesk Moldflow Adviser solves manufacturing problems such as part deformation, reduced cycle times and efficiency of cooling channels. 2) Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerMill which allows toolpath programming for CNC milling machines. It's used for components, electrodes, plugs. 3) Autodesk Fusion 360 with FeatureCAM includes feature recognition and automation tools to reduce programming time. It also allows to avoid machine downtime by highlighting the inconsistencies between the programmed part and the nominal design. 4) Autodesk Fusion 360 with PowerShape used for complex part development, electrode design and modeling for surface manufacturing for preparing molds, dies, and more. It's essential for milling activities as it allows you to carry out precision work.

Business outcome

Using the tools of Autodesk Fusion 360 and Autodesk Moldflow Adviser for mold design allows T.S.T. Srl to achieve its objectives of co-design and development of new projects, in the improvement of data management and in the maintenance of high quality levels.

Conclusion

The solid collaboration between T.S.T. Srl, NKE and Autodesk make the achievement of the various production steps easier, managing the project data in all phases of the product lifecycle and satisfying the various requests for customization of plastic components with speed and extreme attention to detail.

Von der grünen Wiese zum Industriegebiet: Geländemodellierung mit Autodesk Civil 3D

Das Architektur- und Ingenieurbüro HOFFMANN.SEIFERT.PARTNER (HSP) plant im Auftrag der Stadt Schmalkalden die Erschließung eines über 35 Hektar großen Areals, auf dem ein neues Industrie- und Gewerbegebiet entstehen soll. Eine besondere Herausforderung liegt in der anspruchsvollen Topografie, die große Erdbewegung erfordert: Die Planer rechnen mit einem Volumen von rund 350.000 m³ Auf- und Abtrag beim Anlegen der Terrassenstruktur. Da zudem eine Anbindung an das bestehende Verkehrsnetz geplant ist, entschied sich HSP mit Autodesk Civil 3D für eine Lösung, die Verkehrs- wie auch Geländemodellierung abbildet.
