FARTROUVEN R&D CREATES NEW MANUFACTURERS

We solve the full range of engineering challenges — from pipe design development and plant engineering to production setup, technology mastery, personnel training, and product qualification support.

Fartrouven R&D:
Engineering Solutions and Manufacturing Systems for RTP and TCP Pipes

Fartrouven R&D develops and delivers comprehensive engineering solutions for the establishment of modern manufacturing facilities producing Reinforced Thermoplastic Pipes (RTP) and Thermoplastic Composite Pipes (TCP) for the oil and gas industry.

Our expertise combines advanced materials science, composite engineering, polymer extrusion, Automated Tape Laying (ATL), digital process control and industrial engineering to create the next generation of composite pipe manufacturing plants.

We deliver more than individual pieces of equipment. We provide complete manufacturing solutions—from pipe design and plant engineering to production organization, process implementation, personnel training and product qualification in accordance with international standards and the requirements of major oil and gas operators.

From Equipment to Engineering Solutions

Our mission is to help customers establish modern, efficient and globally competitive manufacturing facilities capable of consistently producing high-performance RTP and TCP pipes for the most demanding applications in the oil and gas industry, hydrogen infrastructure and other industrial sectors.

We do not simply supply equipment—we create new RTP and TCP manufacturers.

Fartrouven R&D builds long-term partnerships with its customers, supporting every stage of the project lifecycle while continuously improving manufacturing technologies, production efficiency and market competitiveness.

Next-Generation Manufacturing Technologies

Thermal History Management of the TCP Manufacturing Process: Thermal history management is a key factor in the design of industrial thermoplastic composite pipe production. This concept views the production complex as a system for managing the sequence of thermal and thermomechanical processes that form the composite pipe structure. Fartrouven R&D. Portugal

.

Modern composite pipes are sophisticated multilayer engineering structures whose long-term performance depends not only on the properties of constituent materials, but also on how the composite structure is formed during manufacturing.

For this reason, one of Fartrouven R&D's core areas of expertise is the engineering and control of composite material formation throughout the manufacturing process.

We have developed the Thermal History Management of TCP Manufacturing Process concept, which treats the entire production line as an integrated system controlling the sequence of thermal and thermomechanical processes responsible for forming the composite structure of the pipe.

This engineering approach shifts the focus from designing individual manufacturing operations to designing controlled material formation processes, providing:

  • superior consolidation of the composite structure;
  • consistent mechanical properties;
  • reduced residual stresses;
  • improved long-term durability;
  • higher product quality at increased production efficiency.

Surface Engineering — The Foundation of Advanced Composite Technologies

The performance of multilayer composite structures is largely determined by the condition of the surface of every individual component.

Surface morphology and surface energy directly influence interlayer bonding strength, resistance to delamination, structural durability and efficient load transfer between reinforcing fibres and the polymer matrix.

Fartrouven R&D develops advanced surface engineering technologies, including:

  • plasma surface treatment;
  • micro- and nano-scale surface structuring;
  • high-performance ion-plasma technologies;
  • functional surface coatings;
  • fibre surface activation technologies.

These solutions significantly enhance the mechanical performance and long-term reliability of composite structures.
