Technology

Compoform uses special lamination technology to laminate (thermoplastic) skins on a core material. The process involves the use of a specialized in-house developed machine, known as a double belt press, to bond the skins to the core.

 

Compoform has a 72-meter-long production line, where we can produce sandwich panels in a semi-automatic process. The double belt press is a machine that has two PTFE belts, that transport the different build-up layers through a 5-meter heating zone while applying constant pressure in a controlled manner. As the heat and pressure are applied, the thermoplastic material of the skins and core begins to soften and melt. This allows the materials to bond together, creating a strong and durable laminate. After the skin and core are bonded together, the PTFE belts transport the consolidated sandwich through a 5-meter cooling zone, in which the panel is cooled down to room temperature.

The maximum dimensions of the sandwich panels are 13.500mm x 2950mm x 150mm. Compoform panels are cut in line, making the production process efficient and cost-effective.

The production line in Ospel can produce panels up to 13.500mm x 2950mm x 150mm
