      In House Facilities

      The Rockwood Group excels in providing specialist knowledge, capabilities, and skills in technically demanding sectors. We leverage a broad range of engineering tools to deliver robust manufacturing solutions, such as carbon fiber manufacturing. Our greatest asset is our experienced staff, who bring decades of expertise in materials, design, development, and serial manufacturing. This expertise is complemented by state-of-the-art tools, equipment, and infrastructure. We utilize SolidWorks and Catia CAD systems to design and analyse components and tooling with precision. The transition from CAD to tooling and subsequent physical components is seamless, thanks to HyperMill, which generates cutter paths for our 3, 4, and simultaneous 5-axis machining centres. This ensures a complete in-house tooling and component machining capability. For composite manufacturing, we employ specialized equipment, including multiple -18°C cold storage units for material stock and two parallel ply cutters for precision-cut pre-preg materials. Our composite processing optimizes pressure, temperature, and vacuum conditions to handle the full range of pre-preg resin systems, including carbon fiber manufacturing. Throughout production, processing conditions are meticulously logged and recorded as part of our quality assurance measures, supported by the latest laser scanning metrology

    3. Inclinometers and Tilt Sensors

      Inclinometers and Tilt Sensors

      An inclinometer is a sensor used for measuring angles, mainly for tilt, slope or elevation of an object with respect to gravity. They are known by several names such as tilt sensor, inclinometer or even pitch & roll indicator. The most common inclinometer is for measuring single axis X or dual axis X & Y axis however on request, the Z axis can be measured using a separate device. All incorporate the latest high-performance MEMs sensing technology and are further enhanced with internal compensation circuitry for high accuracy performance and long-term stability. The only other consideration should be the output required. Current outputs (4-20mA) can be used for long transmissions up to 2000 metres. Analogue outputs are most common having 0-5, 0-10V, 0.5-4.5V or even +/-5 or 10V. Digital output version are available such as RS-232, RS-485, TTL, PWM and CAN.
