The production process is coordinated and planned in our MES and APS software.
In House Production
Extensive know-how, an experience of over 50 years and all in-house production offer you the following benefits:
In-house production
Design
Flexibil provides complete design to meet unique customer requirements.
Our engineers use all the advanced tools in order to develop product design, manufacturing and engineering calculations (CAD, CAM and CAE).

Tooling
Years of experience aid FLEXIBIL in designing and manufacturing its vulcanization mold tooling, which gives us best solutions for each product and full control over lead times.
Our molds are produced using modern 5 axis CNC machining centers.
Metal parts
The metal parts are made using modern and productive double-turret lathes and machining centers. The quality control is performed on a 3D coordinate measuring machine, measurement tools, spectrometer and magnetic powder control equipment.

Chemical metal treatment
Our automated zinc-coating and phosphating plant assures the best protection for products. The coating process can be adapted for any application, regardless of how high the requirements are, and can be made with either Zn, ZnNi or zinc phosphating.
Both thickness and the composition of the coating layer are verified by using an x-ray machine.
Metal surface preparation
For vulcanized rubber metal components, the metal preparation step is very important. Here at FLEXIBIL specific care and concern are given, so that the best bonding is achieved.
With this in mind, the metal surface is thoroughly prepared on our automated degreasing, blasting and phosphating equipment. The bonding agent is applied by automatic machines in strict and controlled conditions.

Rubber compound manufacturing and testing
With over 20 years of experience, we are able to produce the right compound for each product.
Every batch is verified in detail. For rubber compound quality assurance we use DRPA Rheometer, dispersometer, aging chamber, tensometer, low temperature chamber, Ozone chamber and others.
Vulcanization
Each vulcanization is conducted in strict conditions and with controlled and personalized parameters. All these factors impact on the quality of the product.
The vulcanization process is assured by more than 40 transfer and injection presses, specialized for rubber metal products.

Static testing
Product characteristics are verified in agreement with EN13913 or based on the customer’s personalized requirements.
The characteristic tests assure that the delivered parts are in line with the stiffness and other requirements. The static tests are conducted on Zwick testing machines up to 250kN, at room temperature or in temperature-controlled chamber (from -70 up to 250 degrees Celsius).
Dynamic testing
The life cycle of the parts is evaluated by loading them in the radial, axial, torsional, conical or combined directions, simulating the real-life load situations.
The dynamic testing is performed with Instron machines, capable of single of multiaxial testing up to 250kN, and conical and torsional testing of up to 4000 Nm.

Deflashing
Deflashing is performed both manually and with robots.
Painting
Beside the protection applied with electrochemical process, we are also using spray-painting, with different types of paints.

Assembly
For the assembly of multiple-component products, we use several machines and devices.
Packaging
Last but not least, we make sure that our client receives the products in best condition.
