(Adorn Engineers) We are manufacturers of high-quality, carbon fiber sheets in size 2500 x 600 mm, our thickness is from 1 mm to 50 mm. We can also make sandwich sheet with a high radiolucent and our sheet can also achieve very little deflection.

(MultiMechanics) MultiMechanics and Solvay have partnered to improve efficiency, lower emissions, and decrease fuel consumption in the transportation industry through the use of novel composite materials. Lightweighting by replacing metal with composites is extremely difficult due to the complexity and demanding nature of evolving structural designs. Additionally, the time and cost to a material supplier to develop a new structural …

(PTT Global Chemical) The first ever innovative nature mimicking surfboard in the world, typically called “KL3IS surfboard, has been launched out by GC Innovation research team. This project has been collaborated with Thailand’s Cobra International Co. Ltd., Asia’s largest surfboard manufacturing plant. KL3IS is named to represent different distinguished performances of the product as follows; K: Superb natural reinforcement Kenaf …

(University of Maine – Advanced Structures and Composites Center) The University of Maine has designed and built a Secure Hybrid Composite Maritime Shipping Container (SHYCC). It is the first secure intermodal composite shipping container that provides six-sided intrusion detection, real-time tracking, door opening alerts, and secure global communication. This technology enables government agencies and commercial high-value good producers to fight …

(Structural Composites, Inc.) The entry is the next-generation CoCure hybrid metal/composite technology for transportation. The technology is being demonstrated with a game-changing fully certified, road-rated composite 53’ refrigerated van for the cold chain market. The all-composite refrigerated van not only includes composite walls and roof systems but also features a new hybrid metal/composite integrated floor that, when combined with the …

(Cevotec GmbH) Complex-shaped composites are still manufactured by hand – up to now. Cevotec offers with SAMBA the first industrial Fiber Patch Placement (FPP) production system together with the matching CAD-CAM software ARTIST STUDIO, enabling automated production for complex composites. The process starts with dry carbon fiber tape that is laser-cut into patches. The patches are picked up by a …

(Lingrove) For the uninitiated, fly-fishing is an angler method where an artificial and nearly weightless “fly” is cast to catch fish. Casting these lightweight lures depend on the weight of the fly line and physical characteristics of the fly rod, hence the importance in material selection in the production of these fly rods. Edge rods, a subsidiary of Northfork Composites, …

(Talon Technology) A unique mix of the strength and stiffness of carbon fibre and flexibility of Kevlar, combine to create a product that is simple in design yet will have a powerful influence on a broad array of potential products. Highly adaptable the hinge can be the lightest and thinnest hinge in the world.

(Victrex) Overmoulding of thermoplastic composites is a technology in which a thermoplastic composite is thermoformed and subsequently injection overmoulded. The near-net-shape manufacturing process is well suited for automated large series production of complex 3D structures with excellent structural performance and a high level of function integration. The innovation features a typical grid stiffened panel that can be found in larger …

(Florida Department of Transportation) As part of the FDOT’s Transportation Innovation initiative, this bridge replacement project is an example of the next generation of infrastructure. Focused on achieving new levels of durability, life-cycle cost reduction and long-term performance, collaborative research and design development led to embracing FRP technology for the replacement of Halls River Bridge. This project is a proof …
