NEW PRODUCT: Composite Expeditionary Matting (CEM)
Todays tactical wheeled vehicles are heavily armored, thus increasing their weight and ground pressure. The Composite Expeditionary Matting™ (CEM™) has been created to support future beach landing and crossing operations of these heavier vehicles.
DESCHAMPS has developed the CEM™ with a semi-rigid composite material using interconnected panels. The CEM™ can be used autonomously or in addition to the conventional Mobi-Mat® A2X Beach Landing Mat which has been used by Marine Expeditionary Units (MEU’s) and Combat Logistic Battalions (CLBs) for more than 10 years. Like all the Mobi-Mat® products, the CEM™ is delivered with its complete anchoring kit.
Designed to accommodate heavy traffic loads on low bearing capability terrain, the Ground Improvement Mat™ is a heavy duty and Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) mat system for supporting off road mobility requirements during expeditionary missions.
Reinforced with composite strengthening rods, the mat spreads the weight of vehicles and increases the load bearing capability of the ground while reducing rutting.
Mobi-Mat® GRIMAT™ provides traction under all environmental conditions for ground support vehicles. Even submerged, the patented corrugated surfacing retains its high-traction capability.
GRIMAT™ permits high vehicular wheeled traffic and enhances the rapid deployment of expeditionary units.
Rapid deployment can be achieved with our Automatic Deployment Systems. Manual positioning or reconfiguration can also be achieved by using the laying and recovery straps included in the kit.
Units can use Mobi-Mat® GRIMAT™ for river fording, to by-pass blown out bridges and to speed up vehicle movement during military operations. You can deploy your mat with Dispenser Systems, which willunroll the mat simultaneously while driving.
In wet and muddy conditions, personnel can use a subsurface geotextile under the mats to prevent the dirt and mud from seeping through them.
Designed to facilitate ship-to-shore movements, the BAM™ is a unique and capable Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS)mat system for supporting off road mobility requirements during expeditionary missions over sand, gravel, or pebble beach.
The Medium Grade BAM™ type A2X is light enough for two people to rapidly carry and deploy the matting manually within minutes. Rolls can also be rapidly dismantled and reassembled to accommodate any operational requirement.
Usable on any surface, Mobi-Mat® BAM™ provides traction under all environmental conditions for ground personnel and wheeled ground support vehicles while preventing bogging.
Mobi-Mat® BAM™ will resist thousands of vehicle passages on supported sandy beaches.
No requirement for back-blading surface before laying. Stakes and connectors are supplied with each roll to anchor and link the Mobi-Mat® BAM™.
The Mobi-Mat® BAM™ provides an immediate workspace from which landing team personnel may conduct subsequent lay-down operations.
In several situations, units may use a subsurface geotextile under the rolls to prevent the mud from sipping through the mat.
Mobi-Mat® Helipad™ is designed for the rapid and safe establishment of landing zones for expedtionary Forward Operating Bases (FOB), Forward Arming and Refueling Points (FARP), Drop Zones (DZ), and Medical Evacuations (MEDEVAC).
Mobi-Mat® Helipad™ reduces the hazards caused by blowing sand, dirt, snow and stones while preventing damage to either the aircraft or personnel. The matting saves on the wear and tear of expensive helicopter rotor blades and engines by reducing the introduction of FOD (Foreign Object Damage).
Mobi-Mat® patented surface follows ground contour without permanent deformation and resists to heavy wheeled vehicles.
The crew can locate the mat and orientate on it from considerable distances.
Provides secure footing for personnel movement near the aircraft and its porosity disperses the passage of liquids and reduces the risk of fire.
Ease of Installation and Reconfiguration
One roll is easily carried and deployed by 2 persons. Connectors and stakes are supplied in the kit for ease of assembly. Mats can be reconfigured for various dimensions.
The flexibility of the matting conforms to more ground conditions than steel, aluminium or composite matting. This provides more site selections.
The U.S. Armed Forces has and continues to use Mobi-Mat® successfully during ongoing operations.
Ideal to create outdoor temporary walkways for dining halls and kitchens, and maintenance shops. Mobi-Mat® Tentfloor™ & Tentpath™ provides provides primary and secondary solutions to in support of expeditionary forces flooring requirements.
Mobi-Mat® Tentfloor™ & Tentpath™ are light weight, easily transportable mattings which can be carried and installed manually in minutes. They roll up in compact sized rolls for easy and quick mobility.
Mobi-Mat® Tentfloor™ & Tentpath™ are designed with the warfighter in mind. By providing the matting in rolls. They can be laid out fast and easily with minimal training. Each Mobi-Mat® Tentfloor™ or Tentpath™ kit is supplied with a variety of anchoring devices to support all types of terrain.
Made from a patented, corrugated, high-density polyester mesh material originally designed for vehicular use, Mobi-Mat® Tentfloor™ and Tentpath™ are puncture and tear resistant. The crossing by lightmechanical snow and sand removal equipment such as snow blowers or “bobcats” is possible.
Mobi-Mat® surfacing permeability prevents water from pooling on the surface. It accommodates every type of terrain with flexibility and without degrading the structure of the matting.
Mobi-Mat® Tentfloor™ and Tentpath™ withstands corrosion, rot, chemicals, petroleum fuels, UV and temperatures ranging from -40°C (40°F) to +80°C (176°F).
Designed for supporting off road mobility requirements on soft muddy beachs, during Joint Logistics Over The Shore (JLOTS) operations, the Fast Composite Roadway™ (FCR™) is a heavy duty and Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) roll out aluminium mat system.
The FCR™ resists high tracked vehicle traffic (even when they are equipped with snow cros) on any ground surface, with up to 30% gradient slopes.
The FCR™ plates are linked by innovative composite connectors which allow the roadway to be stowed into a compact roll. This results in a reduction of weight and volume.
The FCR™ consists of a series of individual non-skid aluminum plates which provide traction under any environmental condition.
The FCR™ combines the benefits of a proven material (aluminum) and that of a new innovative plate design. This combination makes it ideal for accommodating regular traffic and heavy loads on any ground surface and particularly on low bearing capability
The innovative connectors used between plates allow for quick and easy dismantling. This facilitates the changing of plates due to damage.
This can be achieved with our Automatic Deployment Systems. They are either trailer-mounted or Flatrack-mounted on a flattrack carrier.
The flatrack-mounted roadway dispenser STaNaG2413,autonomous and removable, is the ideal tool to deploy your GRIMaT™ temporary roadway or Fast Composite Roadway in minutes
The « removable » dispenser is compatible with all vehicles equipped with a hydraulic lifting arm. Fitted with lashing points, the flatrack can be adjusted directly to the carrier frame.
Basic flatracks are designed according to standard STANAG 2413, but our flatrack can also be constructed according to Din 30722 or ISO 668 (ISO 20’ platform).
The « autonomous » version of the dispenser is equipped with an independent hydraulic power to be reusable on any carrier. The roadway is wound round a removable beam. When the beam is empty, a new one can be installed on the flatrack with a crane.
Once loaded, the dispenser can be transported to be operational anywhere you need.
Todays tactical wheeled vehicles are heavily armored, thus increasing their weight and ground. The Composite Expeditionary Matting™ (CEM™) has been created to support future beach landing and crossing of these heavier vehicles.
The CEM™ is a soil stabilization system applicable to the many various expeditionary and remote applications. Its composition and construction with interconnected panels makes it easy to deploy, retrieve and maintain.
The CEM™ is a continuous roll-out mat 4.2m (13.8’) wide 20m (65’) long that weighs 12kg/m2 (2.46 lbs/ ft²). The CEM™ is capable of supporting traverse by a Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR) carrying a 7-ton payload. The CEM™ has demonstrated its capacity to support 2,000 vehicle passes at the California Bearing Ratio (CBR) 15 and 500 vehicle passes at CBR 3, with an insignificant rutting effect.
DESCHAMPS has developed the CEM™ with a semi-rigid composite material using interconnected panels. The CEM™ can be used autonomously or in addition to the conventional Mobi-Mat® A2X Beach Landing Mat which has been used by Marine Expeditionary Units (MEU’s) and Combat Logistic Battalions (CLBs) for more than 10 years. Like all the Mobi-Mat® products, the CEM™ is delivered with its complete anchoring kit.
