Innovative frames are crafted using carbon composite materials manufactured through an automated Integrated Loop Technology (ILT) process. This unique process involves automated fibre winding and placement, eliminating human error and ensuring precision in the production of structural parts. The joining of the components is achieved through carbon fibre loops seamlessly integrated into the tube structure

Environmental, dynamic, electrical and mechanical battery abuse testing on cells, modules and packs. Testing includes thermal cycling, vibration and shock, short circuit, overcharge, nail penetration, crush, altitude, etc. Relevant test specifications include UN 38.3, ECE R100, IEC 62133, etc. If you have any questions please ask.

RED Data Science activity is focused on delivering Actionable Insight from data. Using techniques such as Statistical Analysis, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning we uncover hidden insight in data that can be used to guide decision making. We work with customers’ existing data as well as sourcing new material. The RED approach is as follows:

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

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

STAT is an innovative surface processing technology developed by TextureJet. It can redefine the surface texture of a component simply, cleanly, efficiently, repeatably, in a quiet and non-invasive fashion, without requiring masking or causing surface damage and can be carried out on-site and in-situ. A wide variation of selective surface textures and finishes can be

A new chemical immersion treatment to enhance the surface of additive manufactured parts could revolutionise the aerospace industry. South West Metal Finishing (SWMF) has been working on its Almbrite™ process for the last three years and believes it could be the future choice of aircraft manufacturers around the world. Some of SWMF’s tier one aerospace

Vector is a new type of extensometer. Compact, easy to use and extremely accurate, Vector can replace multiple contact and non-contact sensors with one, industry specific instrument. The combination of Vector’s 3D measurement head and automated AI measurement functions makes it ideal for testing a diverse range of materials from composites to metals, plastics to

STOP Clamping! Save time and get faster results with Struers Flexible specimen holder is the only specimen holder on the market that can hold odd-shaped specimens without clamping. As a result, you can quickly prepare odd-shaped specimens, such as welds, on your semi-automatic machine.

The smallest passive sensor of physical quantities is based on micro-wires. Contactless measurement of physical quantities (temperature, mechanical stress, torsion, pull, position, magnetic field, and more), uses one interface. Sensors can be mixed in many materials and used in many areas: the Internet of Things, Structural Health Monitoring, Constructions, Biomedical Applications, Preventive and Predictive Maintenance
