HDF 3

This HDF machine is based on the mechanical chassis of our proven HVA 3.

Our Hot Drape Former 3 offers automated control of machine movements and a range of useful features.

Our Hot Drape Formers are specialised pieces of equipment that are used to shape composite materials such as carbon fibre. Using gentle heat, they drape together forming parts and are particularly useful for complex or curved components. That’s why they're often used in the aviation and automotive industries.
