From Formulation to Finished Piston Can

Your formulation is the starting point. The finished ZIMA piston can is the destination. Between them lies a structured development process — from the initial analysis to series approval.

The Development Process

1

Initial Consulting

We discuss your formulation, your application, your target market. We analyze the technical feasibility and define the parameters for the development. No commitment — just a conversation about what's possible.

2

Formulation Analysis

We evaluate your product for viscosity, density, chemical compatibility, and propellant compatibility. This determines which materials and which propellant system are suitable.

3

Piston Design & Prototyping

Based on the analysis, we design the piston geometry — including the target dosing amount. 3D printed prototypes are tested with your actual product to verify functional behavior.

4

Tool Construction

After successful prototyping, precision tooling is commissioned for series production. We coordinate with our partners in Hungary and monitor timelines, quality, and material specifications.

5

Testing & Validation

Serial pistons are tested for dosing accuracy, material properties, and long-term stability. All results are documented and traceable.

6

Series Approval

After successful validation, series approval is granted. Ongoing quality monitoring ensures consistent performance — batch for batch, can for can.
