FibreLINE automates the entire preforming process. It cuts, sorts and sequences large plys of carbon fibre and other composite material before shaping and placing it onto a mould where it is inspected ...

LOWFLIP (Low cost flexible integrated composite process) project has been recently launched with a duration of 36 months and 10 partners from 5 European countries. Partly funded by the European ...

Widespread in aerospace, laminated fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites are also increasingly used in other sectors, including the automotive industry. The identification of optimal cutting ...

Perseus Materials is reinventing composites manufacturing as it is currently known. Perseus Materials wants to build bigger, faster, anywhere. They are developing and applying a proprietary composite ...

Despite the versatility of fluoropolymers in demanding, high-performance applications under harsh environments, many of them have been classified as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and are ...

Lightweight, high-strength polymer composites are essential to modern engineering, but their production has long been hindered by complexity, inefficiency, and reliance on manual adjustments. A study ...

Thermoplastic composites manufacturing and smart preforming enables “one-minute” manufacturing of composite parts. In addition, thermoplastic composites are easier to recycle than their thermoset ...

Airplane wings and wind turbine blades are typically created using bulk polymerization in composite manufacturing facilities. They are heated and cured in enormous autoclaves and heated molds as big ...
