HEATING SYSTEMS FOR THE PROCESSING OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS

We manufacture insulation covers for heating moulds during prefabrication or resting stage and heating systems for composite material processing.
Rimatek mould heaters are designed according to customer specifications and can be made in any size with surface temperatures from 10 ° C to 250 ° C and with 12V to 400V supply voltages.
The insulation covers can be easily adapted to moulds for use in the production of composite materials (curing), soles, shoes, chairs …

Preheating the moulds, especially composite moulds, is useful for maintaining a high quality of printed material and avoiding defects and waste.
This kind of heating operation with industrial insulation covers for moulds, improves the processing of resins, carbon fibres and polymers.
Warming composite materials at the post-curing stage (processing and application of the composite) is particularly useful for having a temperature curve suited to the raw material used so that the material can catalyse at the right times.

Heating systems for the processing of composite materials – examples

In the industry we have studied a solution to heat the moulds for foaming the foamed polyurethane moulds for the production of insulating parts on refrigerators and other household appliances.

In the nautical industry, we have produced heating systems for composite materials to repair carbon fibre parts applied to boats (masts, hulls, panels, etc.)

In the wind farm industry, our solutions are used where it is necessary to model materials such as fibreglass at a suitable temperature to allow for modification and repair work to be carried out on parts of wind turbines directly in loco.
