JEC 2008:   COMPOSITES PROJECTS TO COME

Paris, Porte de Versailles, Hall 1, Stand G5, April 2008:

Each year, the JEC Show is the occasion to meet a large number of actors from the composites industry, to present them the latest equipment developments and get to know their projects to come. Each industrial project is a technical solution that MATRASUR Composites is happy to study in order to propose the most adapted technology and contribute to its success, whether it is in France or abroad.

  RTM ENCOUNTER AT PFT LA ROCHE SUR YON 

In order to present RTM perspectives and to bring RTM actors in contact, the Technological Platform (PFT) of La Roche sur Yon (West of France) which gathers the Kastler College, the University of Nantes, the Technological University (IUT) of la Roche sur Yon, Greta de Vendée and other colleges, organised on May 23, 2007 an encounter. Matrasur Composites, represented by Yannick Lepec, was invited to talk about "Composites and Industrialisation Perspectives".

  PROTOTYPE FOR AN ENVIRONMENTAL-FRIENDLY     CAR: ECO-MARATHON 2007

For the second tim , a group of students from a prestigious French university, the Ecole Centrale de Paris, asked Matrasur Composites to participate in the construction of “the most ecological car” of the year. The Shell Eco-Marathon gathers every year all car prototype suggestions in the goal of finding the one that will “travel the longest distance while consuming the least fuel”. Matrasur Composites put at the student’s disposal a workshop, raw material, equipment and one of our staff members to help build what came to be an aerodynamic, fast and light prototype car.
On May 11 to 13th, 2007 in the circuit of Nogaro, France, the car went 207 km with 1 litre of fuel, 67km/l more than in 2006!

  5th INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM FOR RTM     COMPOSITES    

February 6 and 7 took place at Saint Avold, France, the 5th International Symposium for RTM Composites organised by the Pôle de Plasturgie de l'Est or PPE, a technical center specialised in long fibres, reinforced composites with thermoplastic and thermoset matrix. Matrasur Composites participated in two live demonstration workshops : "100% Automated RTM cycle" and "New resin system for infusion". During these two days we also welcomed visitors at our stand.

  AERONAUTICS and COMPOSITES:
    SAMPE 2006 IN AJACCIO
