Composite Training Courses
Introduction to Composites
1 Day
New to composites? Need a quick refresher of the basics? If so, then this course is the ideal place to start. No prior knowledge is needed as we cater for engineers and non-engineers alike.
Composite Manufacturing Fundamentals
1 Day
Composites has a huge range of manufacturing methods, each with their own benefits and pitfalls. This course is a great place to start to clarify which techniques are right for you.
Composite Design Fundamentals
1 Day
The way composites combine the different materials and manufacturing processes to make the final product leaves a massive range of choices for any product. This course peels back the layers about the decisions to be made.
Wet Layup Fundamentals
2 Days
Wet layup is easy to learn yet hard to master. This course covers the basic knowledge needed to make wet layup components including gel coated and visual parts.
Resin Infusion Fundamentals
2 Days
Resin infusion is used on products from boats to wind turbines to planes. This course covers how to manipulate dry fibre as well as the what infusion consumables and materials are used.
Prepreg Layup Fundamentals
2 Days
Prepreg can produce some of the highest quality components in composites. This course covers material manipulation, bagging techniques and common manufacturing defects.
Mould Tool Design
1 Day
A mould tool is 50% of the final component therefore must be right. This course breaks down the key elements of what makes a good tool design for various manufacturing techniques and highlights the main stumbling blocks.
Joining of Composites Theory
2 Days
Joining of composites can prove difficult compared to other materials. This course covers the main ways of joining composites including practicalities of each technique and the fundamental maths.
Composite Health and Safety Management
1 Day
Composites can have some damaging side effects if not used with respect. This course breaks down the safety and health implications of using composites as well as ways to reduce the risks in a reasonably practicable way.
Composite Quality Management
1 Day
Given how closely material properties and manufacturing are linked within composites, controlling quality is vital for any level. This course sets how processes can be monitored and what those results mean.
The Composite Factory
1 Day
Composite factories vary wildly depending on industry and component function. However they all still have the underlying elements are the same. This course looks at of these core elements and how they are implemented.
Digital in Composites
1 Day
Other than just being a buzzword, “digital” within an engineering environment relates to a range of tools to enhance processes and products. This course shows the composites can use these range of tools.
