CI Showcases Expertise at Tooling for Composites Event
Composite Integration, a leading provider of composite tooling and manufacturing equipment, attended the recent Tooling for Composites event on July 19, 2023, at Spirit AeroSystems in Prestwick, Scotland. The event was organised by Composites UK.
Tim Searle, Research and Development Director at Composite Integration, gave a presentation titled “The Right Tool for the Right Job (RTM & Infusion)” Tim presented the company’s expertise in a variety of tooling applications, including insights into the factors that should be considered when selecting the right tooling for a particular application.
During the event, Composites UK announced the publication of the Tooling Good Practice Guide. The guide provides a wealth of information about a fundamental part of composite manufacturing. Industry experts collaborated to create the guide, which is a useful resource for people from new trainees to clients specifying tools. Richard Bland, Technical Director at Composite Integration, contributed to the chapters on the design and construction of tooling and reviewed the document alongside Tim Searle.
The guide is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the design, manufacture, or use of composite tooling. It is available to download from the Composite UK website.
The Tooling for Composites event was a great opportunity for Composite Integration to showcase its expertise and network with other industry professionals. The positive feedback from the audience is a testament to the quality of Tim’s presentation and the company’s capabilities.
Composite Integration’s presentation at the Tooling for Composites event was a well-attended and successful event.
