MVP Closed Mould Demos using Scott Bader Crystic® Infusion Resin and Tooling System at JEC Composites Show, Paris. (Stand T32)

The MVP Patriot Pro Innovator System will be used for the infusion demonstrations at JEC.

At the 2010 JEC Composites Show in Paris, Magnum Venus Plastech (MVP) will demonstrate a new approach to Film Infusion on their stand (T32) using Scott Bader’s Crystic® 702 orthophthalic vacuum infusion resin and moulds made from Crystic matched tooling system.  Visitors will be able to see firsthand how fast a 2,4 metre by 1,6 metre reinforced  laminate can be produced by vacuum infusion and discover the latest systems, techniques and compatible resins for producing superior quality closed mould parts for a variety of applications.

On the MVP stand will be their latest RTM, Light RTM and VI systems.  The demos will showcase their new MVP “Flex Moulding Process”.  During each demo they will infuse two sides of the same mould; one side with a reusable membrane and the other using an infusion film bag.  A Scott Bader technician will also be on the MVP stand to answer technical questions on the resin and give advice, including the importance of using high quality mould tools.  The MVP demo moulds have been especially made  using Scott Bader’s matched Rapid Tooling System: Crystic 14PA tooling gelcoat, Crystic VE 679PA vinyl ester skincoat and Crystic RTR4000PA rapid tooling resin.  Vice President International Sales for MVP, Joan Tracy commented: “MVP is very pleased to be working with Scott Bader for our stand demos at this year’s JEC Composites Show in Paris.”

Scott Bader specialises in closed mould resins, including Crestapol® 1210 and 1212 high performance resins.  Due to their very rapid cure, Crestapol resins combine significant productivity benefits with exceptional mechnical properties and fire, smoke and toxic fume (FST) performance when aluminium trihydrate (ATH) filled. Crestapol 1210 and 1212 are used by manufacturers in Europe and China making building and rail closed moulded and pultruded parts.  For more information go to www.crestapol.com or  www.scottbader.com for the full range of  resins, gelcoats and adhesives.
