Specifications


750 mq. lamination area, ISO 8 clean room with filtered air, controlled humidity and higher air, pressure compared to the outside.


Up to 120 workstations

The clean room is an area dedicated to drap composite plies, where attention to purity and quality of the environment is crucial. Here, in a controlled environment, composite materials are prepared to ensure that they are free of contamination, and therefore perfect for high quality productions.

_05

Autoclave curing

Specifications


n.4 autoclaves:

1 – Autoclave (Magnabosco)
Working size: 1.4 m (Ø) x 6.0 m
T up to 200°C; p up to 7 bar

2 – Autoclave (Irop)
Working size: 2.0 m (Ø) x 4.0 m
T up to 220°C; p up to 11 bar

3 – Autoclave (Italmatic)
Working size: 1.5m (Ø) x 5m

4 – Autoclave (Italmatic)
Working size: 2.5m (Ø) x 5m
