Partnership for VAP® in the wind power field
10.09.2010Trans-Textil and SAERTEX on joint path to success
The production of rotor blades for wind turbines is one of the most important application fields for VAP® membrane-assisted low pressure infusion. On this largest market for VAP® applications, SAERTEX GmbH & Co. KG and Trans-Textil GmbH have an exclusive partnership within the EADS VAP® license management system. The long-standing global experience and expertise of the SAERTEX group and the membrane system production processes developed and used by Trans-Textil are an ideal combination for successful use of the patented VAP® process in the wind power field. download
Access to VAP® technology via EADS and Trans-Textil
28.07.2010As part of its Technology Licensing Initiative, EADS Deutschland GmbH is placing its patented VAP® membrane-assisted, low pressure infusion method at the disposal of the market by means of a licence management system. Trans-Textil GmbH, an EADS-authorised VAP® licensor for the non-aerospace sector and preferred EADS partner in the aerospace sector, is the direct, worldwide contact for all questions concerning contract-based VAP® licensing. The exclusive EADS partner for VAP® membrane systems will be exhibiting at the Composites Europe show at stand A05 in hall 12. download
EADS and Trans-Textil adopt joint approach for VAP®process
09.04.2010The quality, efficiency and success of lightweight construction work depend on experience as well as knowledge of the latest developments in the field, such as the VAP® vacuum-assisted approach. The processes and membrane systems involved have international patent protection taken out by EADS and Trans-Textil for all applications areas. Acquiring a licence for the implementation of VAP® helps users secure protection of their resulting technological know-as well as further R&D work on the VAP® process. download
VAP® membrane-assisted low pressure infusion
09.04.2010VAP® membrane systems are developed and produced by EADS partner Trans-Textil GmbH, which also licenses their use in the non-aerospace sector. In a joint showing with EADS, Trans-Textil will be exhibiting new technical solutions for VAP® membraneassisted low pressure infusion at the JEC Composites Show, underscoring intensification of their colaboration. download
Multifunctional textile solutions for VAP®
09.04.2010Trans-Textil GmbH supplies membrane systems – the central component in the VAP® approach – for use in the respective membrane-assisted low pressure infusion work. The combination its membrane systems involve of air- and gas-permeable resin barrier plus sophisticated textile carrier enables a high degree of precision in the production of complex lightweight parts. At the same time each of its membrane systems is individually tailored to the specific process variables of gas permeability, barrier performance, heat resistance and drapability. download
