Collapsible Cores – Intelligent Solutions for Complex Moulds.
Collapsible Core Technology
When precision meets innovation, efficiency follows.
KNARR’s collapsible cores are engineered to simplify complex mould designs, enabling the reliable demoulding of undercut or unscrewing geometries without the need for split cavities or additional side actions.
Every KNARR collapsible core is manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring smooth operation, long service life, and repeatable performance — even under continuous production conditions.
Designed for accuracy and stability, these cores guarantee clean release and excellent surface finish in the final moulded part.
