High Quality Composite Carbon Fiber Autoclave

Mechanical And Physical Pressure Composite Carbon Fiber Autoclave

1. The TPC control system (Thermal process control)

1-1 Brief introduction of TPC

The autoclaves components and sensors will be monitored and controlled by the TPC control system. TPC is the Windows XP/Win 7 version of company computerized control software.

1-2 Superior Control is Your Key to Performance

Most will agree that in the world of composites manufacturing, the control system is a key component to assuring autoclave performance, usability, and reliability. Even the best autoclave will be crippled by a poor performing control system, especially when processing large volumes of composites. Because of this fact, OLYMSPAN has focused a large portion of our R&D efforts on our control software and the features/capabilities that can improve processing performance, reliability, and lean manufacturing in autoclaves.
