EquipmentTraditionally, the manufacturing processes used for advanced composite structures have been complex and labour intensive. ATL Composites is committed to developing ways to simplify these processes.
Powerboard Fairing Machine Developed to replace longboards, the POWERBOARD enables a single operator to fair several square metres in seconds. Compared with the traditional method, the POWERBOARD can save hours in labour costs, approximately 30 to 50%, and the dust extractor ensures a cleaner and healthier shop environment.

WOMBAT Impregnator This simple impregnating machine allows the laminator to easily control the resin to fibre ratio. Fibre types can be changed at will, wet-out can be extremely fast, and handling of liquid resins is minimised. Disposable plastic sleeves are available to keep the bath free from epoxy build-up and to simplify clean-up.
WOMBAT Junior This fibreglass tape impregnator reduces time and clean-up when wetting out tapes for bulkhead installation and any other taping procedures. Pre-wet tapes are easily carried to the job on a removable take-up spool, and roller into place.
DuFLEX Z-Press Developed to off-set the individual size of DuFLEX composite panels, the DuFLEX Z-Press allows the builder to quickly join panels that pre-machined with a Z-joint, to any required length. The press applies heat and pressure to cure the epoxy adhesive, producing a structurally effective join that has a smooth and fair surface profile.
