FILAMENT WINDING TECHNOLOGY
Continuous, belt driven Filament
Winding Machines
Main characteristics of our CM machines:
Production speeds of up to 40 m per hour;
Pipe nominal pressures of up to 32 bar;
Pipe stiffness from 2500 to 10.000 N/m2;
Joints: sleeve, with rubber seal or bonded.
CM configurations available:
CM 1800: ND 300 to 1800 mm;
Our constant strive to improve our machines from a productivity, quality,
maintenance and practicality point of view has generated the following
innovative characteristics, which give us the leading edge in this market:
Induction system for the heating up of the steel band;
Premixing of sand and resin for construction of structural layer;
10 heat detectors and subdivision of the IR oven into 3 distinct sections;
Heat exchanger to control the temperature of the resin;
Pipe thickness measurement device;
Fast mandrel diameter change system.
The advantages resulting from the above improvements are:
Higher productivity;
Improved quality control;
Improved and consistent product quality;
Reduction of waste;
Easier monitoring of production parameters;
Reduction of downtime & maintenance.
CM 1800: ND 300 to 1800 mm;
CM 2600: ND 300 to 2600 mm;
CM 3000: ND 300 to 3000 mm;
CM 4000: ND 300 to 4000 mm.
FILAMENT WINDING TECHNOLOGY
Lamellar Continuous Filament Winding Machine
Our innovative and absolutely unique LAMELLAR machine for the
continuous production of GRP and GRE pipes is the only machine of its
kind in the world, capable of winding pipes from ND 100 mm!
Main characteristics:
GRP/GRE production: ND 100 600 mm;
Production speeds up to 40 m per hour;
UV or IR curing;
NP up to 32 bar
Stiffness from 2500 to 10.000 N/m2
Joints: sleeve, with rubber seal or bonded.
The advantages from the mechanical point of view are:
the use of a lamellar mandrel instead of the traditional steel band;
higher productivity;
overall compact size of plant;
easier/quicker dismantling and assembly during diameter changes;
reduced manpower and maintenance.
The advantages from the chemical point of view are:
optional use of UV-curable and hybrid dual-curable resins;
optional use of UV curing instead of IR lamps;
on-line monitoring of polymerisation by ultrasound techniques.
