The Chop/Lamination Reciprocator is designed to automatically produce flat panels or sheets using a gel coat and/or a chopper gun that traverses or reciprocates over a moving mold or table. Spray applications and material rollout can both be completely automated. Most commonly, this machine is used to apply polyester resin and chopped gun roving simultaneously. The Reciprocator features a quick gun carriage reversal to recover normal speed of the gun head. This quick reverse requires no gun triggering, giving little build-up at the edges of the panel for minimum waste and a high production rate.
The Chop/Lamination Reciprocator by Magnum Venus Products (MVP) is a high-efficiency automated system designed for the production of flat composite panels and sheets using gelcoat and/or chopper gun technology. Capable of producing FRP laminates across a wide range of applications, the system automates both spray application and material roll-out, ensuring consistent laminate quality, reduced labor requirements, and increased production throughput. Its quick-reverse gun carriage technology eliminates the need for gun triggering and minimizes material build-up at panel edges, reducing waste while maintaining uniform coverage and high production rates. citeturn85search9turn85search10
Featuring PLC-controlled operation, automatic flushing, high-speed spray gun travel, and compatibility with epoxy, polyester, and vinylester systems, the Chop/Lamination Reciprocator delivers precise process control and repeatable results. The system can be integrated with environmental enclosures, mold drives, mold shuttles, and roll-out assemblies, providing a scalable and flexible solution for composite manufacturers seeking greater efficiency, improved material utilization, and consistent product quality in high-volume production environments.
