Get in touch →What we deliver
Composite Manufacturing Engineering
Process selection, laminate definition and manufacturing planning, from hand lay-up through to AFP and ATL programming for automated production.
Design for Manufacture (DFM)
Design reviews and manufacturing input during development, using CATIA / 3DEXPERIENCE to resolve producibility issues, including automated lay-up processes, before they reach the shop floor.
3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering
Accurate 3D capture of parts, tools and assemblies using laser and structured-light scanning, converted into usable CAD data for repair, replication or legacy component support.
Part & Tool Manufacturing
Manufacture of composite parts and tooling, from prototype through to production quantities, coordinated through a trusted UK supply chain to match programme quality and schedule.
Metrology & Inspection
Dimensional inspection and metrology using CMM and portable measurement systems, verifying parts and tooling against design intent.
25 years in composite manufacturing
PlyOne Ltd was founded to give composite programmes direct access to senior manufacturing engineering expertise, without the overhead of a large consultancy. That's built on 25 years in composite manufacturing across aerospace, space, motorsport and automotive, including extensive experience programming AFP and ATL machines and design for manufacture for automated composite processes. We work with an established UK supply chain to deliver engineering, scanning, and manufacturing wherever it's needed.
