Creative Composites supplies high quality composite components to a world leading forklift truck manufacturer, a leading bus manufacturer, luxury car brands, vending, construction and other industries. Parts are manufactured using a range of processes, including compression moulding, resin transfer moulding (RTM) and hand lamination.

The company’s range of 5-axis CNC trimming centres offer customers precise trimming of composite components within very short cycle times. This new investment enables larger parts to be trimmed.

“The new CNC centre gives increased capacity to meet the increasing future demand from new and existing customers," explains Jonathan Holmes, Commercial Director at Creative Composites.

"The equipment was built and supplied to our exacting specifications with our team liaising closely with the supplier to develop systems and features specifically for composite applications. The new trimming centre not only increases the range of composite parts we can trim but also improves efficiencies – this benefits customers by providing excellent levels of quality at lower costs”.
