From the Material to the Component

Our ma­te­ri­als can be used in the form of UD-Tapes for var­i­ous pro­cess­ing tech­nolo­­­­­­­­­­gies. On one hand, they can be used ef­­­­­­­­­­fi­­­­­­­­­­cien­t­­­­­­­­­­ly to re­in­­­­­­­­­­force in­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­jec­­­­­­­­­­tion mold­ed com­po­­­­­­­­­­nents as so-called in­­­­­­­­­­sert­s. This is a sim­­­­­­­­­­ple way of sig­nif­i­­­­­­­­­­can­t­­­­­­­­­­ly im­prov­ing the me­chan­i­­­­­­­­­­cal prop­er­ties of such com­po­­­­­­­­­­nents. On the oth­­­­­­­­­­er hand, they can al­­­­­­­­­­so be pro­cessed di­rec­t­­­­­­­­­­ly in­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­to ro­­­­­­­­­­ta­­­­­­­­­­tion­al­­­­­­­­­­ly sym­met­ric or flat com­po­­­­­­­­­­nents us­ing spe­­­­­­­­­­cial man­u­­­­­­­­­­fac­­­­­­­­­­tur­ing pro­cess­es such as wind­ing or press­ing. The best ma­te­ri­al uti­l­iza­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­tion can be achieved if the fiber ori­en­­­­­­­­­­ta­­­­­­­­­­tion of the UD-Tapes is matched to the stress­es of the com­po­­­­­­­­­­nen­t. De­pend­ing on the ap­­­­­­­­­­pli­­­­­­­­­­ca­­­­­­­­­­tion and giv­en bound­­­­­­­­­­ary con­di­­­­­­­­­­tion­s, we can ad­vise you on how to ex­­­­­­­­­­ploit the max­i­­­­­­­­­­mum po­ten­­­­­­­­­­tial of these ma­te­ri­als in your ap­­­­­­­­­­pli­­­­­­­­­­ca­­­­­­­­­­tion. We de­fine our­­­­­­­­­­selves by the fol­low­ing prop­er­ties:

Manufacturing of cutouts from unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites
Measuring of a component
Winding of a fibre-reinforced composite
Manufacturing of a tension-/compression-torsion test specimen
  • We Provide an Overview
    Whether wind­ing, press­ing or in­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­jec­­­­­­­­­­tion mold­ing in­­­­­­­­­­sert­s, we ad­vise you holis­ti­­­­­­­­­­cal­­­­­­­­­­ly on how you can use UD-Tapes ef­­­­­­­­­­fi­­­­­­­­­­cien­t­­­­­­­­­­ly in your ap­­­­­­­­­­pli­­­­­­­­­­ca­­­­­­­­­­tion. We are not lim­it­ed to one tech­nol­o­­­­­­­­­­gy, but can cov­­­­­­­­­­er all com­­­­­­­­­­mon com­po­­­­­­­­­­nent man­u­­­­­­­­­­fac­­­­­­­­­­tur­ing pro­cess­es to­geth­­­­­­­­­­er with our part­n­er­s.
  • We Know Our Materials
    Due to the melt­ing of the UD tape dur­ing com­po­­­­­­­­­­nent man­u­­­­­­­­­­fac­­­­­­­­­­tur­ing, the re­spec­­­­­­­­­­tive process has a sig­nif­i­­­­­­­­­­cant in­­­­­­­­­­flu­ence on the ma­te­ri­al prop­er­ties of the re­­­­­­­­­­sult­ing ma­te­ri­al. In the case of se­­­­­­­­­­mi-crys­­­­­­­­­­talline ther­­­­­­­­­­mo­­­­­­­­­­plas­tic­s, for ex­am­­­­­­­­­­ple, the cool­ing curve of the plas­tic is de­­­­­­­­­­ci­­­­­­­­­­sive for its me­chan­i­­­­­­­­­­cal prop­er­ties. As we know our own ma­te­ri­als best, we take these ef­­­­­­­­­­fects in­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­to ac­­­­­­­­­­count when de­sign­ing com­po­­­­­­­­­­nents and thus es­­­­­­­­­­tab­lish an ef­fec­­­­­­­­­­tive feed­back loop be­tween these in­­­­­­­­­­flu­enc­ing pa­ram­e­ters and the de­sign.
  • We Offer Everything from a Single Source
    We are con­vinced that the po­ten­­­­­­­­­­tial of fiber-re­in­­­­­­­­­­forced plas­tic com­­­­­­­­­­pos­ites can on­­­­­­­­­­ly be ful­­­­­­­­­­ly ex­­­­­­­­­­ploit­ed by map­ping the en­tire val­ue chain from ma­te­ri­al to com­po­­­­­­­­­­nent pro­­­­­­­­­­duc­­­­­­­­­­tion. We there­­­­­­­­­­fore see our­­­­­­­­­­selves as a sys­tems sup­­­­­­­­­­pli­er for com­po­­­­­­­­­­nents made from con­t­in­u­ous fiber-re­in­­­­­­­­­­forced ther­­­­­­­­­­mo­­­­­­­­­­plas­tic­s.
