This is a Rear Diffuser Assembly we manufacture for a British luxury carmaker. All the press tooling and checking fixtures were designed and manufactured here in Milton Keynes by our sister company Ryeland Toolmakers.

As part of a portfolio of products designed to deliver improved sustainability, PRF Composite Materials is delighted to introduce REEPREG, its new carbon prepreg material made with recycled chopped carbon mat. PRF’s processing allows almost full impregnation, which makes REEPREG drapeable and easily handled by the constructor, without falling apart when used – which the PRF team believes sets it apart from other recycled mat products available. The mat is made using recycled carbon prepreg waste, reducing landfill from kitting and trimming. In the near future, the finished component – including scrap from trimming components – will also be recyclable, thus improving circularity and extending the life cycle of this product. REEPREG will be available in combination with PRF’s component prepreg resin systems and in standard weights of 100gsm, 200gsm and 300gsm. The material can be processed in autoclave and press, and can be used as a core material in conjunction with PRF’s woven and UD prepreg materials. Dave Ellson, Managing Director comments: “This product has such exciting potential. The material is quick to process and when combined with our eXpress cure resin systems, offers a solution that significantly saves time, reduces energy consumption and cost, and removes composite waste from going to landfill. Thereby making it a highly sustainable material.” Robert Burnell, CEO adds: “Whilst we recognise the contribution that bio materials may make in the future of composites, at PRF we believe that we can do more by finding ways to improve the circularity of traditional composite materials; improving their sustainability whilst retaining their superior composite properties. As such, we will continue to invest in product development, where we can improve manufacturing and processing, save energy and reduce plastic and other waste materials.”

Reflow™ is a patented texturised sheet to allow membrane building encapsulating 0.5 x 0.5 grooves at 1cm grid spacing. This provides in built resin flow ‘mesh’ which is reusable and not consumable. Peel ply may or may not be used in conjunction with this product.

The Relyence® Reliability Prediction software supports the worldwide accepted standards for MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) analyses: MIL-HDBK-217, Telcordia, 217Plus, NSWC Mechanical, ANSI/VITA 51.1, China’s GJB/z 299, and NPRD/EPRD. All facets of the standards are supported including hybrid modeling, early life dropout, and the use of test and field data. Relyence Reliability Prediction offers a robust feature set with all the capabilities you need for comprehensive analyses. The long list of features includes supplied part component libraries, BOM (Bill of Materials) importing, Intelligent Part MappingTM, What-If? analyses, system modeling, cross-module integration, derating analysis, allocations, graphical dashboards, and much more. Our reliability calculation software is designed to make the task of doing MTBF predictions easy, straight-forward, and accurate. Our failure rate calculator tool is fast and precise, using optimal default data as needed to perform calculations. It’s built to handle your continual product development cycle from early stage with minimal input to late stage when detailed design parameters are known.

The removable fixed feature of the bush is normally used in high production work, where the bush can be easily and quickly replaced with a minimum loss of production. The removable slip feature of the bush is used when more than one operation is carried out; the bush is instantly removable after each operation.

Our repacking and material handling capabilities means TECHSiL are equipped to transfer the contents of large primary containers into small packs.

Resistance wire heating elements are based on traditional wire heating technology and come in a variety of shapes. For all wire heating elements, a special metal wire serves as heat source. The heating conductor heats up due to its electrical resistance when being supplied with current. When designing a resistance wire heater, the heating conductor’s alloy and shape are most important next to the power output. Therefore, a selection of round and flat wires of various alloys and cross-sections is available. The selected heating conductor usually becomes a winding part on insulation material, such as ceramic or Micanite, or a spiral for tubular heating elements and heating cartridges

Without structure, every job relies on someone knowing what to do next When work centres, shifts, and responsibilities exist only in people’s heads, the factory runs on tribal knowledge. New starters struggle. Supervisors spend their time directing instead of managing. And when someone leaves, the knowledge goes with them. Map your factory once – and let the system direct the work DynamxMFG structures your factory as Plants, Departments, Work Centres, and Machines. Each work centre is associated with the operations it handles. When a job arrives at a work centre, operators see only the work that belongs there. Shifts are configured per department with working days, start and finish times, and scheduled breaks. The system uses shift data to calculate capacity, auto-pause tracking during breaks, and display accurate availability in the demand scheduler. Every employee clocked, tracked, and recorded without paper Machine Assignments lets you drag work orders onto specific machines and set the sequence in which they run. Operators arrive at a machine and see exactly what order to work through – no supervisor required to direct traffic. Batching groups different items together for a shared operation – a paint line, a curing oven, a press. Sequential batching lets downstream work begin as individual items finish. Simultaneous batching holds everything until the batch completes. Capture quality data at the point of production, not after the fact Operations are the individual production steps – CNC machining, welding, inspection, assembly. Each operation is configured with its type, associated work centre, estimated time, and any dynamic data capture fields required. Dynamic data capture fields prompt operators at the point of completing an operation – measurement values, inspection pass/fail, serial numbers, temperatures. Set any field as mandatory so an operation cannot close without the data.

Retort type furnaces can be used in a variety of ways. Be it for tempering and annealing of tools previously processed in vacuum hardening furnaces, as well as for a number of other heat treatment processes. The latter include in particular the processes of gas nitriding, nitrocarburizing in conjunction with corrosion-protective post-treatment (oxidizing). Our retort furnaces are available in a wide variety of designs. You can choose between electric heated or gas heated versions.
