COMPOSITE MATERIALS APPLICATIONS

As more and more Composite materials are being used in the manufacture of various parts and products, UV LED curing can be used as a way of curing these materials.

The composites industry is a sector that involves the production of materials made by combining two or more different materials to create a material that has unique properties and characteristics. Composite materials can be made from a wide range of materials, including fibers, resins, metals, and ceramics.

The composites industry has experienced significant growth over the past few decades due to the increasing demand for lightweight, high-strength, and durable materials that can be used in a wide range of applications. Composites are used in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, construction, and sporting goods, to name a few.
The manufacturing process for composite materials involves combining two or more materials to create a new material that has superior properties than the individual components. The materials are typically combined using various methods, such as resin infusion, compression molding, and filament winding. The resulting composite material can be designed to meet specific requirements, such as high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and fire resistance.
