Service For Customers

PlastiComp, LLC has expanded the versatility of the Pushtrusion®
Direct In-line
Compounding technology beyond injection molding and is now able
to offer customers a D-LFT compression molding solution. The Pushtrusion®
D-GMT® system produces hot charges of customized fiber reinforced
compound that can be transferred to the compression press and immediately
pressed into finished parts, eliminating the need for GMT sheet.
Pushtrusion® units can be sized appropriately for any job and can
be used with a wide variety of polymers (i.e. PP, PA, TPU, PBT)
and fibers (i.e. Eglass, S-glass, carbon).
