Macrodyne Technologies (Ontario, Canada) is a large press manufacturer and a trusted supplier of advanced composite molding systems for global manufacturers. With deep expertise in compression molding, RTM, prepreg applications and heated platen presses, Macrodyne provides fully integrated solutions engineered for demanding production environments.

The company’s hydraulic and servo presses are custom built to form thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers and rubber materials with consistent precision and repeatability. From small-batch runs to large-scale production, Macrodyne says it helps its customers tackle complex part geometries, tight tolerance requirements and evolving material needs, all while optimizing cycle times and throughput.

What sets Macrodyne apart is its commitment to integration. Every Macrodyne system is designed with automation in mind, ensuring smooth communication between press and auxiliary equipment. Material handling, heating and cooling, trimming and unloading are all part of a unified system, rather than bolt-on additions.

The company emphasizes that all of its builds are tailored to the specific needs of customers and backed by full project support from concept through commissioning and beyond. Macrodyne’s engineering team works closely with its customers’ to ensure every aspect of a press line is designed for performance, longevity and minimal downtime.

Macrodyne has manufacturing locations in Canada, the U.S., Mexico and Germany, offering regional support with global reach.
