Modern SMC production is a highly automated and computer regulated process. ... Like SMC, DMC is a fibre reinforced composite material which primarly consists of a amalgam of thermosetting resin, chopped glass fibre reinforcement and filler in the form of a bulk material.
What is SMC processing?
The method by which SMC is produced ensures complete integration of fibers and resin. The resin is applied in the form of a paste to a film; next, the fibers are cut and added to the paste. The substance is then squeezed between two films; it is compacted until it reaches the desired thickness and texture.
What is SMC compression molding?
Raw Material Sheet molding compound (SMC) is compounded at an operation away from the press. A highly automated process of combining chopped fiber and thermoset resin matrices produces a semi-pliable sheet that is later used to mold a part.
What is SMC machine?
Sheet Moulding Compound Machine (SMC Machine) Sheet molding compound (SMC Machine) is a process as well as reinforced composite material. The composite is a “ready to mould” glass and other fibre reinforced polyester resin material mainly used in compression moulding.
