NUCLEI AND PROCESSED

The cores are low-density materials that form the intermediate layer in sandwich-type structures. Their function is to separate and stabilize the skins of the laminate, providing most of the shear stiffness of the assembly. This type of construction allows for high stiffness-to-weight ratios, optimizing structural behavior in high-performance applications.

FIBERS AND FABRICS

Reinforcement fibers are the main structural element of the composite, responsible for the tensile strength of the structure. There are different types, with the most commonly used being fiberglass, carbon, and aramid. They come in multiple formats, such as threads, fabrics, stitched multiaxials, or unidirectional, in a wide range of weights and configurations adapted to each application.

RESINS

Resins act as the matrix of the composite material, impregnating the fibers and giving cohesion to the final structure. They provide compressive strength, adhesion between layers, and dimensional stability, maintaining the correct orientation of the fibers. There are different types of resin, with the most common being polyester, vinylester, and epoxy. Their use adapts to different manufacturing processes such as manual laminating, vacuum bagging, infusion, RTM, or pre-impregnated systems.

Disposables

MEL Composites offers a complete range of disposables designed to facilitate the manufacturing of composite materials. These auxiliary materials allow for a more efficient, clean, and controlled process in various transformation techniques, contributing to the final product's quality.

EQUIPMENT

For processes such as RTM, infusion, or vacuum bagging, it is essential to have reliable and specific equipment for each function. The range of equipment is designed to optimize process efficiency, improve manufacturing control, and ensure consistent and high-quality results.
