using carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) based on epoxy prepreg for road racing models, where lightweight performance is paramount. “This is what we wanted to address,” he explains. “How can we ...
Teijin Limited has pioneered a new manufacturing process for carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic that allows for cycle times of under one minute. Typically, creating carbon fiber parts from ...
Applications: Structural components like front-end carriers, dashboards, and door modules. Continuous-Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics (CFRTs): Fiber Length: Continuous filaments of glass, carbon, or ...
In addition to the realisation of complex geometries with local, load-optimised stiffeners, multifunctional components can also be produced efficiently through the use of functional thermoplastics.
The elephantine rear airfoil bolted to the rear deck of the Dodge Viper ACR is not only highly functional, but it gets credit as being the first mass-produced carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP ...
