iCOMAT is a UK Composite parts manufacturer originating as a spin-out company from the University of Bristol in England, which provides beyond state-of-the-art light weighting solutions based on the Rapid Tow Shearing (RTS) process.
Our patented process enables defect-free steering of composite tapes along curved paths for the first time. By shearing tapes instead of bending, we overcome showstoppers of current technologies.
RTS sets new rules changing the way we design and produce composites. The patented Rapid Tow Shearing (RTS) process disrupts the way we design composites leading to lighter, more sustainable and lower cost structures.
Powerful optimisation software driving the world’s only industrial machines that can steer wide composite tapes without defects at fast rates.
State-of-the-art production facilities to support you from initial product development all the way to full-scale production. Fibre steering allows the efficient placement of tapes following load paths, delivering highly-optimised structures with dramatic weight savings and lower use of raw material. Fundamentally sustainable
