CMPreform is holding a demonstration of its technologies in Ridderkerk, the Netherlands. We will be showing the possibilities of preforming of glassfibre and carbonfibre. Further we will be showing electrically heated moulds. These moulds show steep heating and cooling characteristics which makes high volume injection moulding processes a reality. To top this of this we will be showing a reusable vacuum bag that is made entirely in the shape of the mould thus giving an optimal fit. The bag is manufactured using a water based plastic that is sprayed onto the mould where it cures. It can than be removed and used in production.
Please find the programme here.

The Trade Fair, Composites Europe in Stuttgart, was a succes for CMPreform. Lots of parties have expressed interest in the preforming technologies. What was especially noteworthy that the ability to preform carbonfibre cloth met with serious interest. We are now developing this technique further for our clients.
