In the early days of composites manufacturing, the materials for building fiber-reinforced plastic/composite parts were laid into molds by hand. Hand layup is still common in the industry, but ...

With a new approach, KraussMaffei Reaction Process Machinery wants to bring the pultrusion process for the uninterrupted production of highly filled, fiber-reinforced plastic components to a new ...

Strongwell Corp. has built and added a 60-inch-wide pultrusion machine with 40,000 pounds of pull force to its Bristol, Va., facility, just weeks after buying and adding a 36-inch-wide machine. Most ...

Pultrusion is one of the technologies used to produce fibre-reinforced plastic composites. This continuous manufacturing method produces fixed cross-sections for both solid and hollow components.
