FRP Manufacturing

  • Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) – RTM is a low pressure moulding process, where a mixed resin and catalyst are injected into a closed mould containing a fibre pack. ACS applies this proprietary manufacturing method in the production of large exterior components such as automotive hoods, spoilers and side panels.
    • Smooth finish on both sides
    • Consistent part thickness
    • Controlled glass/resin composition

Post Operations

  • Trimming - Parts are trimmed using a CNC robotic water jet cutter to insure consistency and quality at a reduced cost. A high-flow water pump pressurizes water at 50,000 psi, to enable a clean, smooth cut on every part.
  • Bonding – CNC robots are used to dispense OEM specification adhesives in predetermined locations. This ensures parts are properly bonded and will fit and function as intended.
  • Prepping and prime – ACS parts can be prepared and primed to class A specifications
  • Packaging and Expedition - ACS supplies JIT production lines with either bulk or individual packaging
