25 Years of Experience in Composite Materials
Selling and machining of engineered plastics, composite, foam and other non-metallic materials requires skills and a know-how adapted to those different materials. Our most innovative and traditional machining units are dedicated to the shaping of those complex materials to meet the upmost stringent customer quality expectations.
Based on the past de decades experience in the field of composite material , ATIMA-TPIM has developed and registered his own formula of composite material called WARTEX®. Leader in the steel, the aerospace and the rail industries, the WARTEX® is a laminate-based cotton fabric impregnated with phenolic resin with unique properties.
Composites
Composites are materials made by combining two or more natural or artificial elements (with different physical or chemical properties) that are stronger as a team than as individual players. The component materials don’t completely blend or lose their individual identities; they combine and contribute their most useful traits to improve the outcome or final product.
Whether you are looking for a combination of mechanical, thermal and/or electric insulation (ex: mica panels), heat resistance, chemical resistance, simply contact us for a no commitment discussion early during the conceptual phase as this can often reduce a project timeline and cost. Our composite experts will help you choose the materials from our portfolio and manufacturing process that best fits the performance specifications and financial budget of your component.
Wartex®
With more than 2 decades of experience in composite material, ATIMA-TPIM has developed and registered the WARTEX® for the steel, the aerospace and the railway industry.
Originally, the WARTEX® is a laminate-based cotton fabric impregnated with phenolic resin. Based on the specific requirements of our customers, ATIMA-TPIM has developed an new formula by the addition of glass cloth (WARGLASS), molybdenum disulfide and graphite (MOG).
The quality of our WARTEX ® and its derivatives (ex: C2MOG, C6MOG), have enabled us to qualify in the largest suppliers of original equipment rolling.
Mica Insulation
Produced in rectangular sheets, rigid and flexible mica sheets play a crucial role in various application, which may vary from industrial furnace manufacturing, electric transportation to simple domestic appliance such as microwave. The mica combines outstanding electrical insulation under high temperature, mechanical resistance, chemical neutrality and low porosity.
Mica is a naturally occurring mineral. It is a hydrolyzed Silicate of Aluminum and Sodium or Aluminum and Potasium. Naturally occuring in thin sheets it 'built-up' into thicker sections by laminating with synthetic resins. The matrix is very soft and brittle due to the large number of extremely thin layers stacked together. ATIMA-TPIM has developed specific technics and equipments to shape mica and match the customer expectations.
Plastic, Laminated & Foam Materials
Plastics are synthetic or semi-synthetic polymer and other composite materials containing plasticizers, stabilizers, fillers, and other additives that enhance their processing and performance characteristics. The exact formulation of a plastic determines the properties it exhibits, with each plastic formula typically resulting in distinct qualities that make it suitable for specific use cases.
ATIMA-TPIM is a full-service fabricator and supplier of non-metallic materials, including plastics. Our 3000 sqm foot facility allows us to stock and process a wide range of plastic materials for use in industrial and commercial applications, including phenolic plastic, thermoplastic, fiber reinforced plastic and other insulation materials.
