The versatility of Fibra in the railway sector

Dic 2022

FIBRA profiles by Saimex win out over profiles made of steel, aluminium, PVC and other materials under special conditions. The uses of FIBRA in the railway sector are for electrical cable ducts, handrails, electrically insulated walkways, gratings, posts, brackets, trusses and panelling.

In the railway sector, it is widely used thanks to its features:

easy workability and maintenance-free
ultra-lightness and tensile strength
resistance to corrosion and moisture
electrical, fire and smoke resistance

We also offer an additional cutting, mechanical machining and painting service.

Nov 2022

Saimex s.r.l. is an expert in the manufacture of quality fiberglass gratings that can be used in various production sectors, from transportation and mobility to petrochemicals. We have a technical department that will be happy to give you support in your projects and help you develop the product most in line with your needs.

Fiberglass gratings are characterized by:

Resistance to high temperatures, corrosive chemicals and impact
Insulating properties
Light weight
Structural properties similar to those of steel
Ability to support high loads

In addition, fiberglass gratings have a novelty: the addition of the UV9 additive, an excellent shielding agent, which can confer resistance to solar radiation, allowing the material to preserve its mechanical properties and characteristics over time. These pultruded profiles have low maintenance costs, do not need surface treatments, and can be cut or drilled directly on site using common tools for cutting or drilling.

Find out all the features of the fiberglass gratings we design and manufacture in our website to learn all the details of our business.

SAIMEX FIBERGLASS PROFILES FOR THRESHOLDS AND WINDOWS

Giu 2021

The Saimex Srl company specializes in the production and sale of structural profiles in composite material – Wood Fiber and Glass Fiber – and in particular in the production of THRESHOLDS and parts of windows in FIBERGLASS, exploiting the properties of the material of thermal insulation (lambda value (λ) = 0.25) and resistance to loads up to 1000 kg.

Saimex profiles, thanks to their insulating structure due to the composite material they are made of and the thermal break, are used as thresholds for tile-and-slide systems and as structural parts of windows and doors.

We are one of the leading manufacturer companies of GLASS FIBRE THRESHOLDS for WINDOWS for the most important European brands.

CHARACTERISTICS OF FIBREGLASS THRESHOLDS

Among the main features of Saimex fiberglass THRESHOLDS:

• Thermal insulation

• Mechanical properties comparable to steel

• 100% waterproof

• Total absence of maintenance; since Saimex thermal break windows and doors are resistant to the outside, it guarantees less maintenance costs on the final product.

• High resistance to corrosion and sea water

• Resistance to salt mists

• Anti-condensation

With Saimex fiberglass profiles it is also possible to prevent or eliminate thermal bridges.

CUSTOMIZATION

The company Saimex srl is also highly specialized in the realization of COMPLEX SECTIONS AND CUSTOM PROFILES, and we will be happy to give you support with your projects.

Saimex s.r.l. has in fact a technical office always available to listen and meet your needs. Our team of engineers has a long experience in the design and structural calculation of fiberglass profiles for windows and thresholds for sliding windows.

We have also developed a type of smooth surface finish that does not require further coating, or the application of a protective film and we offer the possibility to choose from a wide range of RAL colors and metallic colors.

ENERGY SAVING

Thanks to the thermal properties of composite materials, the doors, windows and thresholds for tile-and-slide systems in fiberglass are important for the energy insulation of homes and buildings and for the Casaklima project which allows buildings to save energy (by reducing consumption) and economical to sustain themselves.

Custom-made fiberglass profiles

The application of fiberglass profiles brings into play a very broad scope. When speaking about advantages given by fiberglass pultruded profiles both at high and medium load-bearing capacity, are part of many solutions, among which the choice of custom-made fiberglass profiles is included.

To give details on peculiarities in a clear manner, in this case we get into the field of railway infrastructure, considering the importance of installing safe electrical conduits, sustainable from an economic point of view and long lasting. Speaking about advantages given by the use of custom-made fiberglass profiles to produce electrical conduits, it means to remember first of all a low electrical conductivity, as well as lightness and stability.

These features represent a remarkable turning point in comparison with steel performance, a material which is still widely used within the private building, but also when it comes to production of electrical conduitsfor rail transport infrastructure and not only.

It is possible to make a qualitative leap with custom-made fiberglass profiles –cut with diamond blades to obtain the required sizes from time to time – and appreciate significant improvements of electrical insulation, but also from the point of view of corrosion resistance and atmospheric agents.

Therefore, custom-made fiberglass profiles are not only a guarantee of security for the entire electrical system, but also a solution allowing you to save more money, thanks to a useful life of the main material which is absolutely inconceivable, if you use steel.

Personalization of fiberglass profiles offers added value of which is impossible to ignore. When speaking about infrastructures of large sizes is essential to have the opportunity to work, taking into account details and customize elements of the electrical system, such as conduitsthat can be appreciated for their really interesting final result, when they are made of fiberglass profiles.

Application of pultruted profiles and fiberglass gratings in the oil sector

The oil sector is a field where it is possible to put very interesting technical innovations in the foreground, exceeding traditional materials in quality which are outdated from the point of view of qualitative performances and service life.

How to innovate? Making use of pultruted profiles and fiberglass gratingsis a valid solution in this regard. Speaking about their role within the oil sector means considering a fundamental aspect in relation to sustainability of naval engineering feats that, since when pultruted profiles and fiberglass gratings began to be successful on the market, have been involved in a turning point with regard to resistance against corrosive agents, resistance against corrosive agents, ease of handling on a construction site and resistance against corrosive agents.

Before going into the details, it is useful to remember that fiberglass gratingsare particularly suitable not only for oil platforms, but also for desalination plants. These cases are connected to situations in which the excessive influence of corrosive agents makes difficult, if not impossible, the use of metallic materials.

Therefore, pultruted fiberglass gratings have become a very valid solution to overcome obstacles and save considerably from the point of view of maintenance costs. This implies an expenditure optimization.

When dealing with extremely high load capacities – in general higher than 2,000 kg – is necessary to make reference to fiberglass gratings,whose composition is characterized by a percentage of fiberglass equivalent or higher to 70%.

In this case it is possible to appreciate benefits not only from the point of view of resistance, but also with regard to handling, which is decidedly easier than with what it is possible to find out when dealing with metallic materials.
