PRESS
The pressing process enables the production of FRP with a smooth surface on both sides. The high pressure results in a high proportion of fibers in the laminate, which increases the strength of the component.
RTM AND RTM LIGHT
Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) is a process for manufacturing fiber composites in which a prefabricated fiber structure (preform) is placed in a closed mold and then liquid resin is injected into the mold under pressure.
VACUUM INFUSION
Vacuum infusion is a process for manufacturing fiber composite materials, in which the fiber material is placed in a mold and then sucked off with a vacuum. The vacuum pulls the resin into the fiber structure and ensures that the resin is evenly distributed.
AUTOCLAVE
In principle, the autoclave is a pressure chamber to which temperature is applied. The pressure compresses the prepreg and the heat cures the resin in the fiber.
BLADDER MOLDING
The compression bladder process is often combined with the pressing process. While the mold halves are held together, the pressure bag inside the component is inflated, thereby compressing the laminate. This procedure is z. B. used in the manufacture of bicycle frames.
WET LAMINATION
Wet lamination is the most original and simplest way to produce FRP. A component can be produced even with the simplest forms. Due to the high resin content, however, the quality is not comparable to the other processes.
DIGITAL CUTTING
The material is placed on the cutting table and fixed with vacuum. The Zünd cutter's cutting head then moves across the material, cutting it precisely and efficiently with a knife. Complex shapes and patterns can be created that would be difficult or impossible with traditional cutting methods.
PREFORM
There are several methods of preforming such as cutting and stacking fibers, draping fibers over a mold, or forming fibers into a mold by vacuum or pressure forming. Complex shapes can also be produced by preforming.
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
We use additive manufacturing to produce hand samples, prototypes, gauges and functional models. Fiber-reinforced plastics straight from the printer are still in their infancy, but will play an increasingly important role in the coming years.
COMPRESSION BLADDERS & PRESSURE PIECES
Different flexible materials can be used for the production of bladders or pads. Silicone is usually used. This is moulded or cast in a rotation process.
REUSABLE SILICONE MEMBRANES
Enormous amounts of waste can be avoided by using reusable silicone membranes in series production. A silicone membrane can be used up to 400 times.
CNC PROCESSING
Whether it is the processing of finished parts or the milling of master models or forms. In composite production, CNC machining has become indispensable.
