Composite Tower, Air Force Radar Tower

Update with Ebert Composites Corporation

May 2009
Ebert Composites has been extremely busy with a variety of projects over the past year. Ebert R&D efforts have been focused on various renewable energy projects, continued development of new specialized machinery for thermoplastic pultrusion, and on going radome and radar tower research.

To the left is a picture of an all composite radar tower built for the Air Force, installed at Ebert's research facility. The structural members require no fasteners utilizing Ebert's patented snap-lock technology, and the platform is constructed using light weight Transonite sandwich panels. The entire structure will soon undergo rigorous testing.

   
Composite Fatigue Tester

Ebert Completes 4-Unit Computerized Composite Fatigue Tester

April 2008
Ebert Composites Corporation has finished the design and production of a customized composite material fatigue testing machine. Built for a major U.S. composites processor, it uses a computerized touch screen to control four pneumatic pistons, which test and record load and deflection data around the clock.

Radome SBIR

Ebert Awarded Phase I SBIR for Hydrophobic Non-Delaminating Radome Material

March 2008
Ebert Composites has been awarded an Air Force SBIR Phase I award under the title, “Hydrophobic Non-Delaminating Radome Material.” Ebert will provide research toward developing a new composite, low cost, sandwich panel that is RF transparent, hydrophobic, weather resistant, and completely immune to delamination.

The new radome panel will have multiple commercialization opportunities in aerospace, marine, communications, weather and military applications world-wide.

   
Polystrand Thermoplastic Pultrusion

Ebert Continues Thermoplastic Pultrusion Developments

February 2008
Ebert Composites has made significant advances in the pultrusion of continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastics. Using new proprietary pultrusion technology, Ebert can now pultrude structural FRP profiles using a thermoplastic matrix.
