SHEETS

Composite sheets offer a range of advantages due to their unique composition. They are known for being lightweight, yet strong and durable, making them ideal for applications where both strength and weight reduction are critical factors. Additionally, composite sheets can exhibit properties such as resistance to corrosion, impact, and extreme temperatures, depending on the chosen reinforcement fibers and matrix material.

TUBES

Composite tubes are cylindrical structures made from composite materials, a fusion of two or more distinct materials, resulting in a new material with exceptional properties. These tubes are typically constructed by embedding reinforcing fibres, such as fibreglass, carbon fibre, or aramid fibre, within a matrix material, commonly a polymer resin. They can be crafted through either prepreg wrapping or filament winding techniques, allowing for a wide range of internal diameters and wall thicknesses to suit a myriad of applications.

PULTRUSIONS

Pultrusion is a manufacturing process used in the production of composite materials. The term “pultrusion” is derived from the combination of “pull” and “extrusion,” which accurately describes the process. In pultrusion, continuous fibers, such as fiberglass, or carbon fiber, are saturated with a resin and then pulled through a heated die. This die shapes the fibers and resin into a specific profile or shape. As the pultruded material exits the die, it undergoes curing or solidification, resulting in a strong, lightweight, and durable composite profile.

BATTERY BOXES

Enclosures or casings made from composite materials that are designed to house and protect batteries. These boxes provide a safe and secure environment for batteries, ensuring their proper functioning and longevity while safeguarding against environmental factors and potential impacts.

The benefits of using composite materials for battery boxes include their high strength-to-weight ratio, resistance to corrosion, and customizable properties. These boxes can be designed to accommodate specific battery sizes and shapes, as well as integrate features for thermal management and safety mechanisms.

Given the sensitive nature of battery technologies, the use of composite battery boxes is essential for ensuring the proper functioning and safety of energy storage systems. Their combination of strength, durability, and precision-tailored design, along with their significant weight savings compared to alternative steel boxes, makes them a reliable solution for housing batteries in a range of applications. It’s this reduced weight that plays a pivotal role in increasing the range and overall efficiency of electric vehicles (EVs).
