Customer-specific engineering is one of our strengths. Through use, process and cost-oriented choice of fibres, resins, structures and the production process, we fit our components with the properties that are important to you.
Development & construction
To ensure the proper fabrication of your fibre-reinforced components, we use the following desgin and analysis tools:
CAD with Catia and SolidEdge
FEM analysis with Nastran
Materials analsis -> Zwick test rig
Tool construction
We handle the production of your moulds. Our focus here is on tool manufacture using prepreg technology.
Some of our tools' impressive features:
Superior contour accuracy under process conditions
The design and manufacture of prototypes and component samples is a challenging topic that we take very seriously indeed. Our test lab and technical unit complete a wide range of key tasks before the successful mass production of a part:
Materials/process development
Materials analysis
Prototyping and low-volume production
Cutter (Prepreg / fee cuts)
Our productivity is significantly boosted by the deployment of two high-performance CNC cutter machines. We're also happy to offer contract machining.
High-performance cutter with a working area of 1800 x 3000 mm
Parallel operation of two cutters ensures a high level of flexibility and reliability
Cutting room air-conditioned to aerospace standards
Plenty of storage space with T = -18 °C
Component production
We have the right manufacturing capacities to handle the production of your composite parts:
Laminating rooms air-conditioned to aerospace standards
Various heating tables
Four autoclaves of various sizes maximum Ø = 2.5 m with usable length of 10 m
Water jet cutting
Two facilities are available for processing your components:
Milling process
With our 5-axis tandem table system, we can put a high-performance machining centre at your disposal.
Working areas / workable dimensions (cube):
X-axis: 2 x 2000 mm in tandem mode or 4000 mm with coupled tables
Y-axis: 2000 mm
Z-axis: 650 mm with 12 mm fixture height (Z travel 1050 mm)
A-axis: 200° (swivel head range +/- 100°)
C-axis: 540° (rotational axis)
3D measurement technology
Our Faro "Edge" measurement arm is a portable coordinate measuring machine enabling high-precision 3D measurement of our components.
The arm's working volume is 3.7 m; its single point repeatability is 0.064 mm.
