FIRST Robotics
Hollis, New Hampshire – Last school year, Re:Build Manufacturing made a generous donation to support the robotics team at the Hollis Brookline Middle School, located in Hollis, New Hampshire, where I mentor science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) students. My daughter and twelve other students at the school registered for the For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST) robotics team and the FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC). Competing as team number 22760, it was the rookie year for the Navy Knights, and the season was incredibly fun, exciting, and rewarding for all thirty FTC participants.

Re:Build Manufacturing Announces a New Line of Advanced, Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Composite Tubes and Profiles
Framingham, MA – Re:Build Manufacturing is pleased to announce its latest breakthrough product: a new line of continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) tubes and profiles, produced at Re:Build’s Oribi Composites facility in Denver, Colorado. Nearly all composite tubes and profiles available today utilize thermoset resin matrices to support the fiber reinforcement or use non-continuous fiber reinforcements. These materials, while light and stiff, are typically lower in toughness and durability, and are not recyclable. Re:Build’s newly developed production technology offers several key benefits for users including improved impact resistance, vibration dampening, corrosion resistance, high and low temperature resistance, durability, and recyclability. Ideal applications for these components include sporting goods shafts, aerospace and automotive tubes and tie rods, medical components, and robotic frames and arms.
