Revolutionary production equipment for the manufacturing of advanced carbon fibre composite parts.
About us
iCOMAT has pioneered the revolutionary Rapid Tow Shearing (RTS) technology, the first ever defect-free fibre-steering process for composites. This game-changing solution has helped customers unlock new levels of performance from composites, enabling them to manufacture lighter, more cost-effective products that perform better than ever before. Originally a spin-out company from the University of Bristol, iCOMAT has developed a patented manufacturing process for advanced carbon fibre composites which are lighter, stronger & more cost-effective than the state-of-the-art processes for the aerospace, automotive & marine sectors. iCOMAT’s innovative technology, Rapid Tow Shearing (RTS), is the world’s first automated composites manufacturing process that can place carbon fibre tapes along curved paths without generating defects. Its defect-free fibre steering capability realises ultra lightweight composite structures beyond the limit of the conventional straight fibre designs & complex geometry which is not manufacturable using current automated manufacturing technologies. Unique in the world of automated composite manufacturing, iCOMAT's technology is set to revolutionise transport, driving performance & cost-benefits across multiple markets such as aerospace & automotive. Beyond state-of-the-art lightweighting solutions - Composite materials are anisotropic, they are only strong in the direction of their fibres. iCOMAT’s specialist technology steers the path of fibres, enabling optimisation of mechanical properties at any point of the structure & ultimately improve all aspects of structural performance. This produces lighter, more efficient components & uses material only where needed in the most efficient way so use of raw materials & overall production costs are drastically reduced. World-Class Composite Manufacturing Systems – iCOMAT is proud to be a market-leading solutions provider, working with customers to elevate product performance to the next-level

We're delighted to be part of NATO Innovation Fund (NIF) first investments #deeptech #composites #manufacturing #automation
Nearly one year ago, we closed on our inaugural €1 billion fund. Today, we are delighted to share our first investments in innovative technologies developed in countries across the NATO Alliance. These investments - across AI, space tech, manufacturing, transportation and robotics - mark our first steps towards advancing defence, security and resilience. We’re proud to be supporting ambitious founders, who are developing cutting-edge solutions to some of the world’s most critical challenges: 🚀 Space Forge is pushing the boundaries of manufacturing by using the conditions in space to make materials, while ensuring that supply chains for Europe’s critical infrastructure are protected. 🛫 iCOMAT is revolutionising the trillion-dollar transportation industry, from air to ground to space, making travel more energy efficient, faster and cheaper through the manufacturing of lightweight materials. 🤖 ARX Robotics is deploying robotic systems to enhance the protection and training of armed forces, and can help improve the security and efficiency of critical infrastructure. 💻 Fractile is developing fundamental computing technology that will enhance collective AI capabilities by enabling Large Language Models to run faster, more efficiently and sustainably. We’re also delighted to support a diverse group of fund managers, including: - Alpine Space Ventures, an early-stage fund bringing over 50 years of space industry expertise to empower select startups to deliver key space-enabled capabilities. - OTB Ventures, an early growth fund originating from Central Europe, investing in spacetech, enterprise automation & AI, cybersecurity, and fintech infrastructure. - JOIN CAPITAL, a Berlin-based early stage venture capital focused on deep tech investments across industrial and enterprise tech. - Vsquared Ventures, which invests in early stage deep tech companies, whose groundbreaking technologies can address some of society’s most pressing challenges across AI & next-gen software, energy transition, new computing and sensing, new space, robotics and manufacturing, and tech-bio. Being at the forefront of technological innovation is key to building a safe and prosperous future for the Alliance’s citizens. We look forward to seeing what our portfolio companies achieve, and how they will contribute to this mission. Read more 👉 https://lnkd.in/eNxe2Gix #deeptech #startups
