Additive Manufacturing with Composites

High-strength Large Parts

Solid Concepts offers 3 unique Composite technologies for demanding real-life applications: CompositeCast™, Hand Lay-up FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) and RTM (Resin Transfer Molding). These advanced solutions are well-suited for projects requiring high strength or where the size of the part makes other technologies unsuitable. Custom fixturing and precise B-side attachments make it even easier take your design beyond prototypes, developing rugged end-use parts.

Typical Composite applications include body panels, engine compartment covers, outdoor equipment housings, large cosmetic covers and kiosks.

Production
As Fast As		 3 DAYS
Instant Quoting and Build System

Current industries embracing these technologies include medical, aerospace, truck and automotive, heavy equipment and construction machinery among others. Whether your project requires a single oversized cosmetic cover or a few hundred equipment panels, Solid Concepts’ Composites solutions will suit even your most demanding needs.

Composite Technologies

CompositeCast

Utilizes composite sheet material during the casting process to create strong parts with composite-like performance

Hand Lay-up FRP

The combination of fiber and UL 94 V-0 epoxy material makes this technology ideal for strong, cosmetic panels

Resin Transfer Molding

Produces high quality parts with composite performance at a low piece price

Applications

  • Body Panels
  • Engine Compartment Covers
  • Outdoor Equipment Housings
  • Large Cosmetic Covers
  • Kiosks
  • End Use Production Panels
  • Engineering Verification
  • Assembly & Quality Inspection
  • Alpha & Beta Builds
  • Pre-sales
  • SolidView
    SolidView® software allows you to view, rotate, measure and communicate design intent with non-CAD users—starting with our free 3D CAD viewer—SolidView/Lite.
  • Prototypes
    PolyJet™ & SLA® provide accurate concept models and master patterns in record time. Complete in-house finishing capability for production-like prototypes.
  • SLS & DMLS
    SLS® produces rugged Nylon 11 and Nylon 12 prototype and production parts. DMLS utilizes metal and alloy materials to create strong metal parts without tooling.
  • FDM
    FDM (fused deposition modeling) produces both prototype and production parts from ABS plastic, polycarbonate, and Ultem materials.
  • CNC
    CNC prototypes, parts and master patterns are ideal in applications where the material property or size requirements make other prototyping techniques unsuitable.
  • Cast Urethane
    Cast Urethane (a proprietary advanced casting technology and advanced formula polymers) produce strong pre-production and short-run production components.
  • Composites
    Composites (fiber reinforced plastic) technology produces large, rigid, accurate panels with excellent strength-to-weight ratio and surface finish.
  • Tooling
    Tooling from Solid Concepts provides quick-turn tooling options for Chinese tooling & production, export tooling from China, and domestic tooling, all with domestic project management.
  • Molding
    Molding from Solid Concepts brings you the best of both worlds by providing Chinese pricing and lead times along with Solid Concepts quality and domestic project management.
