At BAC our advanced composite manufacturing utilises the latest processes, techniques, and materials, to
optimise a product’s performance, whilst accounting for product volume and budget considerations.
Whether it be starting from at hand sketch, reverse engineering, or an existing CAD model we are able to
take a concept right through to the finished product,
Each product whether it be a new prototype, or existing product that at times requires a paradigm shift in
production techniques and material selection, we approach manufacture from a perspective of close
consultation with our clients combined with the necessary R & D and technical knowhow to produce a
quality product.
We aim to increase benefits of any product whether it be weight reduction, increased life through fatigue
improvement, corrosion resistance, high stiffness and strength etc,
We are able to custom make tooling, jigs and fixtures, and testing to meet the required specification for
each product.
Manufacturing Processes used at BAC.
-
Vacuum Assisted Resin Infusion Process (similar to VARTM) (High performance and light weight)
-
Vacuum Bagging - Using Prepregs (High performance and light weight)
-
Sandwich Panel Construction (For light weight and stiffness)
-
Light RTM (Resin Transfer Moulding) (Medium to large production runs)
-
Hand Layup
-
Facilities
To enable us to facilitate projects of more stringent requirements, we have incorporated an environmentally
controlled workshop of 800 m2 (8,600 ft2) within one 2000m2 (21, 500 ft2) factory.
We can therefore conduct large and complex projects to the highest level of manufacture possible for both
GPR and FRP activities.
