In the course of the show will be the International Composites Conference. Dr. Andreas Reimann, managing director of RCM will speak on possibilities of productivity increases in filament winding processes for the production of pressure vessels.
The company will present at the show concepts including robot filament winding processes. These are suitable for R&D and for small series production.
An additional highlight of the trade fair presentation is the machine Type 1-ECO. RCM developed this product line as standardised version of the gantry-type filament winding machines being its most successful tailor-made machines on the market. For RCM, this is an entry into the serial production of filament winding machines.
The Type 1-ECO machine is equipped with all essential basic functions and offers particularly cost-conscious newcomers in the filament winding technology.
The new machine is convincing with its modular concept of up to four spindles. A maximum of four winding axes and two length variants (up to 4,000 and up to 10,000mm) are configurable. Each spindle is driven separately and thus, a simple and cost-effective adaption of additional spindles is possible.
The company will also present how the automation of process steps in manufacturing of filament winding components can improve productivity and quality.
