Aiding the fabrication of materials for testing purposes, the National Composites Certification and Evaluation Facility (NCCEF) at The University of Manchester has invested in an Elkom

composite vacuum membrane press. The system installed at the NCCEF employs thermal oil heating with water cooling and has a table size of 2,200mm x 1,300mm that has been customised to include inlets within the surface of the table for resin infusion and an additional vacuum under the membrane. Temperatures of 220°C can be achieved beneath the membrane.

Like Key to the machine is the patented energy saving Ökotherm heating/cooling platen system - a tailored solution designed to meet individual needs with requirements such as temperature, heating and cooling times, temperature uniformity and system control. Elkom is represented exclusively in the UK by CD (UK) Ltd, which has responsibility for machine sales and aftersales support.
