DE-COMP COMPOSITES, INC.

 MB-DC SERIES

Modeling Board

DC-SERIES Modeling Boards are fabricated with thermoplastic polyester polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) which enables post processing treatments such as thermoforming, compression molding, and filament winding. This board is a dense, highly machinable, dimensionally stable, model board for today’s CNC machining applications. As advancement over similar products on the market, DC-SERIES boards yield low dust emission during machining, less abrasiveness to CNC cutters and affords the user a highly defined surface finish. 

OUTSTANDING FEATURES: USES:
Excellent machinability Proofing intricate CNC designs
No shrinkage Various prototypes
Excellent surface finish Numerous tooling aids 
Low dust emission Bases for Die models
Low moisture absorption Architectural models
No grain Foundry applications
