SHARP & TAPPIN TECHNOLOGY LTD
About us
Compcut a division of Sharp & Tappin Technology Ltd
Compcut Saws & Routers accurately and consistently cut test ready specimens & production components from an extensive range of composite materials.
Compcut machines deliver industry proven, effective machining solutions that are; intuitive easy to use, quick, safe, reliable and clean.
We will be running ‘live’ demonstrations (on Stand W150) featuring both a Compcut ACS Saw and Compcut PCR Router. Feel free to visit us for a demo.
A number of our attendees are bringing along their own material for test cutting on the stand so they can witness for themselves our machines’ capabilities (‘The Compcut Challenge’).
