Open Molding Fiberglass
Fiberglass Spray-Up Reinforcement processes are utilized in a variety of applications including marine, sanitary, swimming pools and transportation.
Chopped fiberglass reinforcement and catalyzed resin, and in some cases, filler materials, are deposited on the mold surface from a combination chopper/spray gun. Rollers or squeegees are used to manually remove entrapped air and work the resin into the reinforcements. Woven fabric or woven roving is often added in specific areas for the greater strength.
Thermoforming
Our thermoforming machine will form extruded acrylic sheets and features golden rod tube support for the molds with the patented tube table. The machine is programmed to heat extruded acrylic sheets in specific regions to ensure proper vac-forming can be accomplished for a flawless end product.
Waterjet Cutting
Our finely focused jet of water cuts reliably and precisely in any direction to incredible detail. Automation allows a consistently accurate and reliable part time and time again. It also means that once the design is programmed into the machine, we can recreate that cut at a push of a button eliminating long lead times.
Precision enable ours customers to set high tolerances in even the most complex parts. Water jets have the flexibility to go from cutting a near net shapes to high precision due to the versatility of the tool. Lastly, due to zero mechanical stress or heat distortion secondary processing or finishing of products can be eliminated.
Automated Gluing
We are equipped with an automated glue gun that allows us to feed adhesives and a variety of compounds at a sustained rate.
