The four new stations designed by Zaha Hadid for the Hungerburg funicular contain over 2500 unique polyethylene(PE) profiles, which connect the glass cladding of the roofs with the steel ribs of the supporting structure.

Design-to-Production developed an automated process for detailing and production planning of profiles. The process began with a CAD model provided by the engineers and ended with the delivery of processed production data directly to the five-axis CNC machine on which the profiles were milled.
