Enrollment in the Certified Composites Technician Open Molding (CCT-OM) allows employees and students to complete relevant training, testing, and certification. Thanks to the Open Molding process of manufacturing fiberglass composites, we can enjoy magnificent boat hulls and decks, RVs, trucks, spas, bathtubs, showers and many other finished products. Open Casting involves spraying or hand placement and can be accomplished in a number of ways. Over the years, these methods have been refined to be more energy efficient. To reduce VOC emissions, the new guns and heads dispense gel coats and resins, and roller impregnators pump the resin into something similar to a paint roller.
As the original CCT program offered by the American Composite Manufacturers Association, CCT-Open Molding focuses on the broad scope of Open Molding technology, including gel coat applications, laminating techniques, and safety procedures.
The Certified Composites Technician Open Molding program (CCT-OM) provides a national composites certification standard to meet industry identified skill areas for current and future professionals working in facilities using this core composites process.
