Résumé : |
Climate change and the transport revolution are demanding smart fiber-reinforced composite solutions. In sectors such as the marine industry, infrastructure, and rail vehicle construction, many different fire protection concepts are competing. The composites industry is paying increased attention to recycling. |
Note de contenu : |
- Cost-effective braiding processes
- Fire-retardant thermoset and thermoplastic composites
- Natural fibers for satellites
- Foam cores processed differently
- Pore-free 3D printing
- Recycling of aircraft components
- Fig. 1 : Spaceframe for a metro rail vehicle front end made from braided tubes. To reduce the weight, comprehensive changes in geometry were undertaken
- Fig. 2 : Methodical development process for a fiber composite-based rail vehicle roof. The improved topology results in favorable load paths. Free-size optimization determines the thickness of the fiber layers
- Fig. 3 : The core of an integrated sandwich structure for vacuum infusion is a 3D-reinforced foam with an "Enex" fire-retardant inner layer
- Fig. 4 : The texture-wall component for mobile homes has an authentic plaster look. It is weather-proof and UV-resistant and therefore has a very long life
- Fig. 3 :
- Fig. 4 :
- Fig. 5 : Two concepts for quasi-pore-free, additively manufactured fiber-reinforced composites. The 3D printer with "fusion module" for post-consolidation gives users an uncomplicated entry into serial production. Coextrusion of thermoplastics with pre-impregnated fibers leads to composites with very good mechanical properties ; CCF = composite carbon fiber, CBF = composite basalt fiber |
