The document provides detailed technical specifications for the Magnum Venus Plastech Reciprocator, a system designed for the automated production of FRP/GRP panels. It includes contact information for various MVP facilities and distributors.

Output Capabilities
The system can achieve a gelcoat output of 5400 ft²/hour (500 m²/hour) and a laminate output of 2700 ft²/hour (250 m²/hour) at 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) thickness with 30% glass content.

Physical Equipment Specifications
The standard width of the equipment is 8 ft (2.44 m), with an optional width of up to 16 ft (4.88 m).

Electrical and Air Requirements
The system requires 220 V, single or three-phase, 30 amps, 60 cycle electricity, and 80 CFM (2.3 m³) per minute air at 100 psi (7 kg per cm²).

Reciprocator Features
The Reciprocator automates the production of flat panels using a chopper and/or gelcoat gun. It features a patented FIT® system to reduce waste and fuming, and a heavy-duty carriage that reverses in 7 milliseconds for uniform thickness and high production rates.

Automatic Rollout
Using four strands of roving with the High-Volume Chopper Gun, the system can output up to 2700 ft² (250 m²) per hour at 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) laminate and 1350 ft² (125 m²) per hour at 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) laminate.
