Net-shape machining services available for structural foam core
CAMX 2024: In addition to its distribution of various product materials for the composites industry, Technology Marketing Inc. now assists in machined net-shaped Rohacell structural foam core to customer requirements.
Technology Marketing Inc. (TMI, Salt Lake City, Utah, U.S.) is now able to offer machined net-shaped services for Rohacell structural foam core directly to its customers. As the North America distributor for the structural foam core, TMI says it has supplied and supported customers with Rohacell as a standard sheet form for more than two decades. TMI offers customers extensive knowledge supporting structural foam core requirements via its technical staff.
High-quality machined net-shape foam parts are attainable with the capabilities of a high precision five-axis CNC machine, featuring a table size of 125" × 80" with 36" in the Z-axis. Any part requirements are possible from first article developments to shapes with complex geometry. Capacity to support low- or high-volume part quantities are feasible for any project or application. Moreover, all part produced are processed with expert support and the proper tools to assure the highest quality standard is provided.
According to TMI, the quality of each part project or application produced is certified to conform to the requested requirement or specifications. The final net-shape foam parts are transported in sealed desiccant-enclosed MIL-PRF-131 aluminum bags to mitigate moisture uptake during transit.
