We have advanced technological facilities used for testing of the new technologies and for the production of prototype composite structures. As part of the research work for the designed construction solutions, manufacturing technologies are developed, and the produced prototypes of the structures are subjected to further tests.

We design and manufacture test instruments tailored to the individual needs of our Customers.

Robotic system for laying composite tapes and curing process

Thermoplastic composites technologies

For over 30 years, thermoplastics have been conquering the technological market in the field of commercial applications in both civil and military structures, with particular emphasis on aircraft. In response to the continuous increase in interest in composite materials with a thermoplastic matrix, we undertake activities aimed at the development of technology in this area.

Our offer includes the following services:

Technology of consolidation of thermoplastic preimpregnates reinforced with carbon or glass fiber

• Methodology for developing consolidation processes for thermoplastic preimpregnates based on non-destructive tests and laboratory tests.

Parts thermoforming technologies

• Modeling of the process of forming composite materials using PAM COMPOSITES – PAM FORM software.
• Tooling design, modeling of flexible forming elements – silicone stamps using ABAQUS software.
• Production of prototype composite parts in the thermoforming process on the press.

Joining of thermoplastic composites

• Development of technology for thermocompression of the thermoplastic composites in the process of electrofusion and ultrasonic welding.
• Development of gluing technology, selection of adhesives and methods of surface preparation.

We have a material base for PEEK TC 1200, PAEK TC 1225 and PPS TC 1100 materials.

Molds and assembly devices

Design and manufacture of molds and assembly devices for composite structures

• Many years of experience in preparing the manufacturing process of the composite parts made of preimpregnates.
• Design and manufacture of high-temperature molds for non-autoclave and autoclave processes.
• Preparation of the assembly process of parts and components.
