THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES

Thermoplastic Compression Molding

Thermoplastic Compression Molding is a manufacturing process that a thermoplastic prepreg (organosheet) is heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to become a usable product. At ACTC, we have workstation with high level automation where a high-accuracy press, an IR oven and a robot are installed. We have the capability to mold organosheet to form different products at short cycle time.
