A more complex process, based on Somocap’s moulding expertise, can produce complex shapes from long staple fibres. The merit of the processes developed lies in their ease of implementation and the ...

Greene, Tweed & Co.'s Xycomp DLF enables the production of highly complex shapes with 3-D features such as ribs, bosses, gussets and flanges from highly reinforced thermoplastic composite materials.

The orientation of short or long fibres in polymer composites during mould-filling or compression moulding significantly influences the anisotropic mechanical, thermal and aesthetic properties of the ...

Piper Plastics (Chandler, AZ) reports that it has developed a proprietary high-pressure molding technology that yields near-net-shape polymers up to 2 inches thick without porosity, voids or sinks.

Compose MFG, a global leader in high-performance composite moulding, entered into a strategic licensing agreement in late 2024 with Roctool, the pioneer in heat and cool moulding technologies. Through ...

As carmakers leap to reach increasingly higher-hanging fruit in the effort to trim weight from new vehicles, advanced materials and manufacturing processes confront cost constraints. Magneti Marelli’s ...
