    3. Roll-off units

      Roll-off units

      Roll-off unit universal The Universal roll-off unit is especially suited for light rolls of material that need to be changed often. Changing the rolls is quick and easy. Ideally, the rolled material should be dense and not have a tendency to wrinkle (e.g. paper or vinyl). An adjustable brake effectively prevents the material from continuing to unwind. The use of a material guide roll significantly reduces the potential for wrinkling and creasing. -Quick, easy roll changes -Ideal for lighter rolls -Perfect for paper or plastic films, vinyl -Suitable for inward/outward wound rolls With the addition of a material guide roller, wrinkling is reduced Details -Max. roll diameter: 350 mm/13.5 in -Max. roll weight: 70 kg/155 lbs -Available for all cutter sizes

    6. RP542-4 system for broadloom and unidirectional prepreg

      RP542-4 system for broadloom and unidirectional prepreg

      Designed as an intermediately toughened system, complimenting both its RP542-1 and super-toughened RP549 systems, PRF's new RP542-4 system is producing excellent results on unidirectional and woven carbon fabrics. The mechanical testing carried out shows the system to have excellent Tensile, Compressive, Flexural and Interlaminar properties and a relatively high Tg of 138°C after curing at 120°C. The onset Tg can be improved by 20°C to 120°C after post curing at 140°C for 2 hours. Adding to its usability, the system also has an out life of 60 days at 20°C. The system is now in manufacture on 300gsm and 600gsm unidirectional carbon and PRF’s wide range of high quality woven fabrics in a variety of fibre types.

    7. RP549 Highly Toughened Epoxy Prepreg System

      RP549 Highly Toughened Epoxy Prepreg System

      Specially formulated for the production of parts requiring high mechanical properties and good impact resistance, PRF's RP549 prepreg system has a Tg of 214°C (DMA) and excellent mechanical properties in tensile, ILS and flexural strength, offering customers a high quality solution for structural components that demand superior mechanical and thermal properties. Feedback from our initial customer trials confirms that the material also has particularly good laminating characteristics, with good tack and grab. The system is now in manufacture on a range of our high quality reinforcement fabrics, including fabrics for aesthetic applications.

    8. RP570 FR eXpress Cure - Fire-retardant, snap cure prepreg system

      RP570 FR eXpress Cure - Fire-retardant, snap cure prepreg system

      PRF Composite Materials is delighted to introduce its new RP570 FR eXpress cure prepreg system. Formulated for structural components requiring FST properties, RP570 FR is a fire-retardant ultra-fast prepreg system which is cured and demouldable after 5 minutes at 160°C. This express resin system is principally designed for snap cure press moulding, however it can equally be used in conventional autoclave moulding and significantly reduces time in the autoclave – up to 50% less – thereby increasing productivity and lowering energy consumption per part. RP570 FR is tested to Federal Aviation Requirements 25.853 Appendix F Part 1, AITM 2.0007 and 3.0005, UL94 V1 and FMVS Standard No.302. Dave Ellson, Managing Director comments: “We believe this product to be class-leading in terms of its eXpress cure opportunity, and its variable cure also provides significant opportunities to constructors to up to halve time in the autoclave. RP570 FR is part of PRF’s drive to develop materials that offer measurable advantages in cost reduction and improved sustainability - with reduced energy consumption and costs, and enabling greater productivity overall.”

    9. RP570 FR REEPREG

      RP570 FR REEPREG

      Developed for aircraft interior components, RP570 FR REEPREG is a fire-retardant eXpress cure prepreg material made with recycled carbon fibre nonwoven mat and has a complete processing time of 5 minutes at 160°C. This innovative material combines REEPREG’s class-leading handleability with PRF’s eXpress cure technology and provides a fire-retardant carbon prepreg material that reduces landfill waste, improves circularity, and is highly suited to high volume manufacturing (HVM). Robert Burnell, CEO and Head of Product Development at PRF comments: “RP570 FR REEPREG has been developed specifically with lightweighting in mind, looking at enabling recycled composite materials to be used in aircraft interior programs and other applications requiring FST properties and HVM. Through significant investment in R&D, we have developed a special methodology of impregnation to ensure that once prepregged, REEPREG is easy to handle and press from a flat sheet into a 3D shape. The development of 400gsm REEPREG also enables thickness to be built up very quickly, thereby reducing cost in these applications.” Now in manufacture, RP570 FR REEPREG offers a significant opportunity for composite component constructors, providing a way towards the industry objective of recover, regenerate and reuse.

    10. RP570 Snap Cure Epoxy Prepreg System

      RP570 Snap Cure Epoxy Prepreg System

      RP570 Snap Cure Epoxy prepreg is an innovative system which has a complete process time of just 4 minutes and produces an aesthetic quality finish in pressed components. Developed for high volume production of parts produced by heated press process, RP570 Snap Cure enables the constructor to create parts in a processing time of just 4 minutes, with no need to cycle the mould tool or to cool the hot mould tool before demoulding at 140°C. Working continuously on a pre-heated mould tool at 140°C, the preform is placed on the mould tool, the mould tool is closed and pressure applied. After 4 minutes the part is fully cured and can be removed from the mould tool without any cooling, enabling parts to be made back-to-back without heating and cooling the mould tool each time. This is achieved by a rapid rise in the Tg of the system, enabling it to rise above the temperature of the mould tool in the 4 minute cycle time. The system is available on the majority of our large range of reinforcement fabrics.
