This means we maintain constant oversight, resulting in superior outcomes for every unique project. Our team of seasoned designers, engineers, and technicians have the know-how and technology to take on even the most complex projects. From design and engineering to layup, autoclave curing, machining, and assembly, our manufacturing capabilities empower us to produce a vast range of composites. We maintain rigorous quality control at every stage, ensuring our products meet the utmost standards of quality and performance.

Expertise

We hold ourselves to the same standards as the industry leaders we partner with. For our customers, it's about quality, timelines, and price point - and we deliver on all three.

Design & Engineering:

Design & Engineering:

Our dedicated design team takes the time to understand your project's challenges and identifies where we can add the most value. We offer a comprehensive tooling design service for composite products, including patterns, moulds, and fixtures. Our design department serves as the primary interface for new customers, ensuring clear communication and regular reviews throughout the design process, leading to final approval before manufacturing begins.

Beyond our tooling expertise, we also design and engineer custom jigs and fixtures for a variety of applications, including trimming, and secondary bonding. Each jig and fixture is tailored to meet the specific requirements of your project, ensuring meticulousness and accuracy. Whether the project involves a straightforward design or a highly complex deliverable, our on-site team is equipped to deliver world-class tooling solutions.

Project Management:

Project Management:

At CODEM, our project management approach is centred around complete project ownership, ensuring every aspect of your project is handled with precision and care. We provide a single point of contact for our customers, streamlining communication and creating short, efficient lines of interaction.

At CODEM, we offer flexible support for your projects, whether as a standalone service or as part of an end-to-end solution. Specializing in patterns, jigs, and fixtures, we deliver high-precision results tailored to your needs. Our capability to laminate and cure mould tools to the highest standards is backed by strong relationships with leading prepreg manufacturers, enabling us to source premium tooling materials on short notice. This, combined with our extensive suite of 3- and 5-axis CNC machines, allows us to rapidly machine parts for even the most demanding applications.

Our expertise in large-scale five-axis machining, coupled with cutting-edge technology, brings your designs to life with unmatched precision and versatility. We excel in creating complex shapes with superior accuracy and impeccable finishes, ensuring that your production processes achieve the performance required. Whether you need prototypes, small batches, or large-scale production, our CNC machining services are tailored to ensure your project's success.

Composite Manufacturing:

Composite Manufacturing:

We have the expertise and capabilities to manufacture a wide range of composite products, turning concepts into reality. With a solid foundation built on years of experience, we specialize in processing advanced composite materials using various techniques. Our extensive experience includes working with pre-impregnated carbon, glass, natural fibres, and resin systems such as epoxy and phenolic. This enables us to produce components that meet stringent strength, weight, and temperature requirements across diverse applications.

To remain at the forefront of the industry, we are deeply involved in developing new materials, with a strong emphasis on sustainability. We are dedicated to exploring and integrating eco-friendly options like flax and Halo-S tooling board into our processes. Our close partnerships with the supply chain give us access to the latest innovations, allowing us to act as a test bed for new materials and techniques.

Equipped to deliver results across a wide range of applications, we collaborate with a carefully selected group of trusted material suppliers who share our commitment to excellence, ensuring that every project meets our rigorous standards.
