Magic Composites, Inc. specializes in Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) production. We specialize in hand lay-up, spray-up, resin transfer molding (RTM), and compression molding using polyester, vinyl ester, and epoxy resins.

Hand Lay-Up and Spray Up
One of the most basic of FRP manufacturing processes, Hand Lay-up involves applying and forming each resin/glass laminate layer manually into an open mold until the desired part thickness is achieved. Because of the close control of material application, it is the method of choice for producing many fiberglass parts.

In Spray-up manufacturing, a mixture of chopped glass fibers and resin is sprayed onto a mold to form the part shape. Due to its high material application rate, spray-up is an economical method for manufacturing certain fiberglass parts. Parts requiring large area coverage, moderate strength and corrosion resistance as well as fast production rates are produced using this Spray-up technique.

Resin Transfer Molding (RTM)
In Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), dry fiberglass reinforcement is first loaded into a closed mold. Resin is then injected into the mold to form the finished part. Because the material is completely enclosed within the mold in net or near-net shape, RTM offers superior surface finishes, close control of tolerances and less material waste.

Compression Molding
Matched die molding of a premix paste of chopped glass reinforcement and resin is called Compression Molding. This process is widely used to manufacture parts in situations where large production quantities offset the method's increased cost of tooling.
