AMT Composites launches T-Paste 70 in South Africa

AMT Composites are proud to launch SP High Modulus T-Paste 70 in South Africa. The epoxy tooling paste has been designed for Marine, Wind Energy and Automotive customers looking for a fast and reliable way to manufacture patterns and direct moulds. T-Paste 70 combined with CNC technology allows more design freedom and improves pattern/direct mould accuracy whilst reducing production processes and costs. AMT Composites has imported a mixing machine to mix and dispense T-Paste 70. Mixing of tooling paste by hand results in air entrapment in the paste, an increased amount of repairs on the pattern/mould surface and a reduction of life of the pattern/mould.
