Wickert press systems play a key role in the production of ballistic composite panels designed to protect vehicles, ships, and aircraft from bullets, blasts, and fragmentation. These high-performance components are made from aramid fibers, UHMW-PE, as well as glass, ceramic, and metal fibers, and are formed into durable laminates under controlled pressure and precise temperature conditions.

Consistent heating, accurate force distribution, and high platen parallelism are critical to product quality – areas in which Wickert has built decades of experience and technical expertise.
