In the modern manufacturing industry, it's no longer a matter of 'either-or' but rather 'both-and' when it comes to production. Both customization and mass production are essential, especially in sectors like plastic machining. At ANKRO, we see that the key to achieving these opposing goals lies in effectively setting up your machines and production processes, where CNC turning and CNC milling play a significant role.
Customization and mass production are two different approaches to plastic machining, each with its own unique benefits and challenges. Striking the right balance between these two is crucial for a successful production process. While customization focuses primarily on the precision and quality of a product, mass production often prioritizes price and lead time.
The setup of your machine park and having the right machines play a key role in supporting both customization and mass production in plastic machining. At ANKRO, we've ensured that these two points are in order. As a result, we specialize in both mass production and customization when it comes to manufacturing plastic products.
CNC turning of plastic offers significant advantages for both customization and mass production. This allows us to meet the diverse needs of our customers. Thanks to our CNC turning machines, we can quickly respond to the specific requirements of individual customers and successfully complete complex projects with our high-quality machine park. For mass production, our machines can be used unmanned and uninterrupted, allowing us to produce large quantities of identical parts with very high efficiency.
Our CNC turners ensure that every process is optimized and that the individual needs of the customer are met. They form the core of the flexible production we can offer at ANKRO.
In addition to CNC turning, there are other technologies that can help support both mass production and customization in plastic machining:
CNC milling: CNC turning isn't always the most suitable solution for every product. Our specialists always consider whether CNC turning or CNC milling is best for the production process when creating new products.
Automation and robotics: At ANKRO, we are actively working on automation and the implementation of robotics in our production processes. This allows us to work even more efficiently and accurately, which is particularly advantageous for mass production.
Flexible production brings various benefits, such as customer focus, shorter time-to-market, increased competitive advantage, and more efficiency and cost savings. Our flexibility and precision enable us to meet the diverse needs of our customers, regardless of scale and projects. At ANKRO, all the products we make symbolize our commitment to quality, efficiency, and customer satisfaction. Curious about what ANKRO can do for you?

The time has come soon! Together with BLW Kunststoffen, under the flag of the BKB Group, we will be present at the Kunststoffenbeurs 2024. Besides sharing our latest innovations and techniques in the field of plastic machining, we will also unveil our brand new exhibition stand here!
Together with our sister company BKB Precision, we have recently been busy achieving our ISO 9001:2015 certification. This important recognition emphasizes our commitment to quality and continuous improvement. With this certification, we set a new standard and can offer our customers the highest level of service.
Within ANKRO, sustainability plays a crucial role. In our ongoing quest to make the company ever greener, we recently took the step of entering into a partnership with Revink, just like our sister companies BLW Kunststoffen and BKB Precision. A partnership that fits perfectly with our sustainability strategy.
