Cygnet Texkimp (Northwich, Cheshire, U.K.) is opening its doors to customers, suppliers and industry professionals on Feb. 16, 2023 for a behind-the-scenes tour of its Innovation Centre and factory in Cheshire, U.K.

The composites technology specialist is inviting industry to visit its facilities, see its technologies in action and talk to the engineers who design and build them. Visitors will be among the first to see the company’s new Innovation Centre which will officially launch in April this year.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming our industry peers to our factory and Innovation Centre,” Luke Vardy, CEO at Cygnet Texkimp, says. “With a great deal of novel R&D and product development to showcase, we feel it’s the right time to invite the industry to discover how we go about developing our technologies and what they are capable of.”

The Innovation Centre will be a dedicated and highly equipped space where customers and partners can test concepts and develop processes on Cygnet Texkimp machinery with the support of its engineers.

Visitors to the event will witness demonstrations of Cygnet Texkimp’s multi-axis and robotic filament winding machines, thermoset and thermoplastic prepreg lines, slitter-spooler, and automation and handling technologies, alongside the composites reclaiming and recycling solution, DEECOM.
