Rockwood Composites可為大型組件提高50％的產能
Rockwood Composites宣布其制造能力增加了50％，主要用于大型飛機部件。該公司已投資購買第三臺大型印刷機，這將使其能夠生產更多尺寸為2米×1米的部件，包括飛機內門板。
壓力機用于生產復雜的工具部件和幾何形狀。復合壓制成型工藝可縮短循環時間。Rockwood現在有三臺大型印刷機和四臺小型印刷機全面投入運營。壓力機使用壓力和熱量來固化復合材料，用于廣泛的行業，包括航空航天，核能和醫療技術。
Rockwood Composites總經理Mark Crouchen表示：“復合材料行業，特別是航空航天業，正在經歷快速增長，我們看到更多的詢問和訂單。”
“這種新型印刷機將大型部件的制造能力提高了50％，我們期待繼續為客戶提供定制，原型和體積復合材料組件，同時采用壓縮和氣囊成型。”
Rockwood Composites目前正在就飛機內飾部件簽訂一份重要合同。
該印刷機由Alderman Tooling在普利茅斯制造和制造，是Aldermans向Rockwood供應的第二臺印刷機。Aldermans為西南地區的企業提供定制金屬加工服務，從Rockwood的印刷機等大型設備到大規模生產激光切割，車削，折疊和沖孔金屬零件。

Rockwood Composites announced that it has increased its manufacturing capacity by 50%, mostly for large air craft components. The company has invested in a third large press which will enable it to produce more components up to a size of 2m by 1m, including aircraft interior door panels.
Rockwood Composites increases capacity by 50% for large components
The presses are used to produce complex tooling components and geometries. The composite press moulding process enables faster cycle times. Rockwood now has three large presses and four small ones fully operational. The presses use pressure and heat to cure composites material for a wide range of industries including aerospace, nuclear energy and medical technology.
Mark Crouchen, Managing Director of Rockwood Composites, said: “The composites industry, especially the aerospace sector, is experiencing rapid growth, and we are seeing this with more enquiries and more orders."
“This new press is increasing our manufacturing capacity for larger components by 50% and we are looking forward to continue supplying our customers with bespoke, prototype and volume composite components using both compression and bladder moulding.”
Rockwood Composites is currently negotiating a substantial contract for aircraft interior components.
The press was fabricated and built by Alderman Tooling in Plymouth and is the second of its kind that Aldermans has supplied to Rockwood. Aldermans provides bespoke metal fabrication services to businesses across the South West, from large units such as the press for Rockwood, to mass production of laser cut, turned, folded and punched metal parts.
