Advanced Composites Solutions, Susta Srl and U.Form Srl to develop press forming technologies for composite materials
An agreement called “CarbonForm” has been signed between ACS (Advanced Composites Solutions) Srl, and two other companies from Abruzzo region, Susta Srl and U.Form Srl in order to develop press forming technologies with the use of composite materials.
A collaboration born from a bet: the conversion of a plant that previously printed metal and is now able to produce carbon fiber parts in the new production unit of Villa Zaccheo, in the municipality of Castellalto, province of Teramo, a stone’s throw away from the A14 motorway.
This collaboration gives rise to the possibility of mass-producing, in particular for the automotive sector, a much higher number of parts compared to traditional composite molding technologies with autoclave.
ACS (Advanced Composites Solutions) is a company specialized in the design and production of carbon fiber and other composite parts for automotive, nautical, aerospace and industrial sectors.
U.Form is an integral part of the strategic development plan of two industrial groups, Susta and Tiberina, two companies supplying the largest European car manufacturers respectively with construction and manufacture of dies for metal deformation and production of steel components. The company is focussed on stamping finished and semi-finished parts for the automotive industry with the hot stamping process.
Susta is a company specialized in design and manufacture of stamping dies for metal deformation with cold and hot process for the automotive industry, from engineering and construction to assembly and service.
