Special materials for
nautical applications
A brochure on various applications that could
be of interest to the nautical sector
is currently being elaborated.
Thanks to Lati's broad experience in the field
of thermoplastic compounds for technical use,
the company can effectively meet virtually any
requirement in an extremely wide range of applications
and sectors.
Lati's mission includes the total satisfaction
of its customers by providing products with
high technological content, the kind of flexibility
that can accommodate the ever-changing demands
of the market, and consistent quality over time.
In the brochure, which will be published in
English and Italian, the various requirements
for materials used in the nautical sector will
be described. Such requirements include:
- Resistance to UV rays, to maintain all
mechanical and elastic properties intact
- Mechanical strength
- Lightness, in thermoplastic materials
- Thermal and dimensional stability
- Self-lubrication
- Resistance to chemicals, in materials
that come into contact with grease and particularly
with sea water.
Last but not least, lower costs resulting
from reducing structural weight and from the
high industrialization of production processes.
Besides this strictly "technological"
service regarding materials, Lati also provides
design support through finite elements methods
(FEM). Employed by Lati since 1995, these
methods enable the company to simulate the behaviour
of components in service (Structural Analysis)
and to study problems associated with the injection
molding process that is used to build the components
(Moldflow Analysis).The brochure will
be distributed by our sales representatives
beginning in September 2002.
