With a thorough knowledge of the productive process, FKgroup has the ability to manage the inputs and outputs of the materials. All the machines have a high level of quality (UNI EN ISO 9001:2015) and are sustainable, environmental-friendly with reduced energy consumption and CO₂ emissions and safe (ISO 5011). The company designs its cutting machines pointing at both the origin and the final destination of the material and it is able to come up with the best made-to-measure solutions for its customers. Each environment becomes a new concept of production.

The centrality of the customers is ensured and safeguarded throughout the process. An expert and one internal R&D can evaluate customized projects, according to the specific and unique requests. The well-organized and specialized manufacturing can produce and test all the equipment in a very short lead-time while a widespread network of distributors ensures timely delivering. The customer service can quickly address any problems, operating at peak efficiency to satisfy the customers.

 

Tecno Freccia

Tecno Freccia is the FKgroup’s flagship automated cutting system that can revolutionize the design and manufacturing processes of composites (including prepreg carbon fiber) and other materials.
It is largely used by important companies in the sectors of aerospace, aeronautical, automotive, defense, protective clothing for small and medium productions.

The machine – in the words of Sergio Gori, currently FKgroup’s CEO – is the result of more than 50 years of technology. This award-winning design automatic cutting system Conveyor type for Single Ply and lays up to 2.5cm compressed height is versatile, accurate, fast, and efficient- all features shared with the wide range of products the company offers.

Tecno Freccia is powered by the JUST CUT software with ISO and HPGL files direct import and Tool. All cutting parameters are easy, fast and safe to set. With an average consumption of 5.6kW, it is a convenient and efficient solution in the cutting industry. Other notable specifications are: dust vacuum filter; polythene bar supports; operator safety light indicator; Wi-fi preset; bar code reader.

Furthermore, the camera operator support and the remote maintenance and technical assistance (also via Web) allows the client to work without distress. Tecno Freccia is available in different configurations and comes with customizable tools and cutting head options to better suit any production. This productive and flexible machine interacts with the factory and with the whole enterprise, and wholly meets the rising demand for customization, model diversity and safety requirements, keeping costs down and productivity high.

AIMPLAS e TNO hanno concluso il progetto ELIOT, che prevede una revisione completa delle tecnologie di riciclaggio per compositi e biocompositi. Durante i test sono stati valutati dodici metodi applicati a sei diversi materiali. La solvolisi e la pirolisi sono risultate le alternative più promettenti per la produzione su larga scala. La pirolisi, tuttavia, ha dimostrato di avere costi economici ed ambientali maggiori rispetto alla solvolisi, dal momento che genera il 17% in più di anidride carbonica e sviluppa il doppio del calore….

Nell’ottica di rendere più sostenibile l’industria aerospaziale, i compositi a sandwich possono sostituire i termoindurenti tradizionali nella creazione di parti strutturali degli aerei, senza rinunciare alla resistenza in ambienti estremi o in situazioni di carico imprevisto. EconCore sta lavorando con Airbus, Fraunhofer e il Politecnico della Danimarca (DTU) alla realizzazione di un timone sostenibile per un aeromobile in compositi a nido d’ape….

Oggi parlare di aviazione sostenibile, vuol dire porsi l’obiettivo di ridurre il peso strutturale dei velivoli, limitando al contempo anche i consumi e le emissioni. Per raggiungere tale scopo è opportuno sostituire le parti metalliche con equivalenti in compositi, che possiedono elevati rapporti di resistenza e rigidità rispetto al peso. NLR (Netherlands Aerospace Centre) sta esplorando le potenzialità della produzione additiva su larga scala di materiali termoplastici rinforzati con fibre….
