Our semi-finished textile products are suitable as reinforcement structures for all products made of plastic or SMC material. They impress with their outstanding textile, thermal, mechanical and optical properties.
No matter what challenge you are currently facing with your product or component, let us work together to find a way to optimize your products.
RTM is a process in which reinforcing fibers (such as glass, carbon or aramid fibers) are placed in a closed mold and then impregnated with liquid resin. The resin hardens inside the mold, resulting in a strong, lightweight and complex-shaped composite material.
RTM is mainly carried out with thermosetting resins, as these offer excellent mechanical properties and thermal resistance.
SMC hot pressing (sheet molding compound) is a process that is typically used in the field of thermoset materials. The resin used in this process is a thermosetting resin that hardens under heat and pressure and forms a solid, non-meltable structure.
Also known as Vacuum Infusion Process. In this process, a dry fiber structure is placed in a mold and covered with a film to create a vacuum. The resin is sucked into the mold by the vacuum and saturates the fiber structure. After impregnation, the resin hardens and forms the finished part.
This process can be used with both thermoplastic and thermosetting resins, depending on the desired properties of the end product.
This is a more specialized technique in which a foam core is placed in the middle of the mold and then covered on both sides with fiber material and resin. Under vacuum, the resin is drawn into the fibers while the foam core expands and gives the entire system its final shape. After curing, a light and rigid composite part is created. Similar to the vacuum injection process, this process can be used with both types of resins, depending on the requirements of the finished product.
Together we develop the right combination of carrier material, fiber or fiber mix, fiber orientation and contour of the reinforcement structure (preform) for further processing in your component or product. Right from the start, we pay attention to the cost-efficient production of your semi-finished products.
Our fiber preforms and functional elements are suitable for further processing with these
thermosetting processes:
For your specific application, we find the right fiber or fiber combination that offers the required material properties for your textile preform. Combine different lightweight fibers with each other or with metal fibers to create hybrid structures. Your product and your application determine the right mix of materials.
