GOLD COAST YACHTS Case Study The Ultimate Custom Heating Solution
Gold Coast Case Study An Epoxy Curing Problem Any business that deals with epoxy curing knows how time-consuming and expensive the process can be. Without the proper equipment, it can be difficult to maintain the right temperatures. Powerblanket® can help. Our custom heating blankets can be tailored to any job, for any climate, as Gold Coast Yachts - a manufacturer of high-end, carbon-fiber watercrafts - discovered.
Gold Coast Case Study From Costly to Cost Efficient It was June 2014, and Gold Coast Yachts President, Richard A. Difede, was growing increasingly concerned about the cost and time it was taking for their post-curing of large carbon-fiber joints on the yachts the company produces. The epoxy joints needed to cure at 145° F for an extended period of time, and the procedure Gold Coast was using was time consuming and costly. In fact, it was outright profit hindering.
Gold Coast Case Study This all left something to be desired in the department of efficiency. Even while pumping the constructed oven with ample heat, they were still having trouble penetrating through all the layers of carbon fiber. If the right amount of heat didn’t penetrate through all layers, the cure wouldn’t set completely.
Gold Coast Case Study A Simple Solution to a Complex Problem Richard started looking for a better approach to his company’s curing needs and came across Powerblanket. When he read what our industrial heating blankets could do, he reached out to a representative to learn more. “When Richard contacted us, it was obvious that he needed something far less expensive and time consuming than his present method,” the Powerblanket sales rep said.
Gold Coast Case Study After trying out the small demo blanket, Rich and his team purchased many more, and in multiple sizes. It wasn’t long before they decided to take it one step further. After learning about Powerblanket custom heating solutions and the ability to manufacture custom blankets for just about any application, Richard purchased several custom-sized blankets for current and future projects.
