Our Mission is "to commercialize the low pressure RTM Process (Lite RTM)"  to replace open molding in the Reinforced Plastics Industry!

 

The least expensive process (open molding) is not always the best approach, especially when you look at the whole picture. How long as an industry are we going to tolerate the lack of process control, intolerable enviroment, inferior products, and high rework? All this for the sake of an initial low cost process(open molding)!  Do we really know all our costs associated with open molding? The human resource and labor costs are much higher than we realize. Open molding is so bad that "The Discovery Channel" has featured it as one of their episodes on the Dirty Jobs show. With a gel booth, water jet trimmer and RTM, you can convert your plant into a pleasant, clean environment, where we can attract and retain the quality of technicians we need.

 

So Where is New Boston RTM (NBRTM) on this journey?

 

 

Step #1 DONE

 

Research, Develop, and Commercializing Low Pressure (lite) RTM (LPRTM) for small parts (1-15 sq feet) 250 shapes, 200,000 parts produced in 10 years time. This includes hatches, covers, steps and vents at competitive prices, with quality and consistancy. Done!

 

Step #2  75% Complete

 

Scaling up this technology to larger parts (15-100 sq feet) we now have done 20 shapes and 20,000 parts produced in four years. Currently we have even added die lock parts with as many as five inserts in the tooling.

 

Step #3 Starting

 

Scale up our technology to large parts (100 sq feet and up). We feel we have all the commercialized technology that is necessary to complete this phase. Currently we are looking for a partner to work with in order to complete this last phase.

 

No stone is being left unturned! We have met with all levels of government and industry. There are forces in our favor including a green process, better products and jobs for the future.
