Direct Infusion: A Better Way

Many military manufacturers are still using hand-lay or pre-preg techniques to produce composite parts that are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and able to withstand high temperatures and harsh conditions. However, there’s a better way.

We’ve spent over two decades perfecting our Direct Infusion technology, a significant advancement in military manufacturing.

The Direct Infusion method ensures uniform resin distribution, which is crucial for achieving top performance and structural integrity with minimal voids.

Our process guarantees that parts consistently meet rigorous standards, maintaining high quality even as production rates increase. Our CIJECT® equipment enables faster cycle times and higher throughput without compromising on quality.

This makes Direct Infusion an ideal choice for military manufacturers looking to improve performance, efficiency, and output.

Why Choose CIJECT Machines for Defence Composites Manufacturing?
