The international RAMPF Group is presenting high-performance tooling boards, Close Contour Castings, and liquid resin systems together with engineered composite manufacturing solutions at JEC World from March 4 to 6 in Paris – Hall 5 / Booth 5G117.
Key Facts
RAKU® TOOL tooling boards based on epoxy exhibit outstanding mechanical properties, finest surface structures, and high dimensional stability. The boards are easy and quick to machine and compatible with all industry-standard prepregs, release agents, and paints.
RAKU® TOOL Close Contour Castings made from polyurethane are delivered as a ready-to-machine monolithic casting, free of bonding lines and closely approximating the final part contour. This significantly reduces both milling time and material waste.
Sustainable tooling solutions: RAMPF Advanced Polymers is a pioneer in the chemical recycling of polyurethane. The raw materials obtained with the company’s groundbreaking technologies are used in both customers' and RAMPF’s own products:
RAKU® TOOL liquid resin systems by RAMPF Group, Inc.
High-performance structural resins developed by RAMPF’s US subsidiary enable low-temperature processing, eliminating the need for costly equipment. This innovation significantly reduces both the cost and lead time for prototyping and early builds, effectively mitigating financial and scheduling risks in development projects. The material processing characteristics also allow for scalability, enabling high-rate manufacturing. Additionally, the resins are fully compatible with RAMPF’s tooling board portfolio and can be formulated to meet various FST requirements, including FAR 23.1193, FAR 25.853, and FAR 25.855.
RAMPF’s structural resin portfolio encompasses three distinct product variants:
RAMPF Composite Solutions designs and manufactures some of the world’s most advanced lightweight composite products for industries such as aerospace, defense, industrial, medical, high-end consumer, and green transportation. The full potential of composite technology is leveraged for both low-volume production, early product development, and series production through the combination of:
These benefits are particularly significant for components with high structural and geometric complexity, such as undercuts, compound curvatures, and pockets, as well as functional complexity, including EMI shielding, static discharge, impact resistance, and flammability compliance.
