Company founder Karl Heinz Teufel turns 85 years


We are pleased to congratulate our company founder and visionary Karl Heinz Teufel on his 85th birthday and wish him all the best and good health 

Karl Heinz Teufel founded the sole proprietorship “Teufel Prototypen” in the basement of his single-family home in Neu-Ulm/Burlafingen. With his son, two employees and two 3-axis milling machines, conventional milled parts and prototypes were milled from solid material and then glued together. 

A lot has changed since then, and Teufel Prototypen GmbH has now grown into a reliable development partner in the industry, producing both classic high-end prototypes and samples using industrial high-tech processes, but also offering small series of up to tens of thousands of parts and is valued worldwide for this.


Creating the future!

 

Arburg A370 and MultiLift

With another injection molding machine from the manufacturer ARBURG, TEUFEL Prototypen completes the cross-model production availability with high-end injection molding machines from Germany and fully automatic handling systems.

Shortly before Christmas 2024, another new ARBURG A370 injection molding machine with a fully automatic MultiLift handling system was put into operation at TEUFEL Prototypen. In addition to the A470 and A270 series already established in production, the A370 series fits harmoniously into the machine park. With our ARBURG machine types A270, A370, and A470, continuous, fully automatic production of small series with a clamping force of 35 to 100 tons is now possible. This means we can produce high-end plastic parts for our customers quickly and efficiently around the clock.

In addition to the ARBURG injection molding machines, we also use injection molding machines from the manufacturers Dr Boy and ENGEL for sample part and small series production in our production.

 

Merry christmas and a happy new year 2025

TEUFEL receives award from EOS on FormNEXT

"Creating the future!"not only means supporting our customers in the development of innovative products.It also means taking responsibility for the environment and the people in the region in which we live.

That's why Teufel Prototypen has been trimming its energy and material consumption for sustainability since 2008.
As a result of these measures, we are also the first company in Germany to start its AM productionswitched to the PA2200CarbonReduced material from EOS.

We were honored for this pioneering act at Formnext in Frankfurt.
Many thanks to EOS, who also share and live our values.

CarbonReduced SLS polymer at TEUFEL Prototypen

With immediate effect, TEUFEL Prototypes is using a special climate-friendly polymer "PA CarbonReduced" for SLS applications. The new "CarbonReduced PA white" has a greatly improved climate effect and, in accordance with the TEUFEL prototype sustainability guideline, contributes to the reduction of CO2 in our production process. By using renewable energies, the CO2 footprint in the production of SLS parts from our "PA white CarbonReduced" is almost 45% lower than with conventional PA. This also has no influence on the high quality and material composition.
