Autonomous RTM tool

All the functions needed to produce a part are integrated within the tool:

– a heat transfer fluid circulates through channels in the mould to heat and cool it down;

– a mechanical, automated system opens and closes the mould – during injection, the mould is clamped by an ironjaw, a system developed and patented by Compose.

To automate and better control the production process, sensors (flow, temperature, pressure) are integrated in the tool cavity.

The autonomous tool has many advantages: lower production costs and investment (no press), space saving, enhanced ergonomics, cycle time divided by three, energy saving and shorter cleaning and unmoulding times.

The tool is a plug-and-play production equipment that can be used for any type of composite applications to lower investment and production costs.
