Skoltech researchers have investigated a promising type of composite material in terms of their shape memory behavior—how they resume their original shape following deformation if exposed to the right ...

The milestone illustrates Epsilon’s filament winding, pultrusion and postprocessing capacity maturation and complete ...

Reusable silicone technology involves the use of custom-made silicone membranes which now succeed the use ofconsumable traditional vacuum ‘bags’ or the B counter mould. The silicone membrane is ...

FibreLINE automates the entire preforming process. It cuts, sorts and sequences large plys of carbon fibre and other composite material before shaping and placing it onto a mould where it is inspected ...

Thermoplastic composites manufacturing and smart preforming enables “one-minute” manufacturing of composite parts. In addition, thermoplastic composites are easier to recycle than their thermoset ...

The material-interface-structure-function/performance coupled design method and the additive/formative/subtractive composite manufacturing method provide new ...

A research project undertaken by the Bristol Composites Institute (BCI) at the University of Bristol used laser profile sensors from Micro-Epsilon to detect defects formed during the composites ...

Figure 1. Ultrasonic testing using pulse echo and through-transmission methods. Pulse echo (left and center) uses a transducer that sends and receives ultrasound energy, producing both A- and B-scan ...

Carbon Fiber Max™ expands its patent portfolio with a next-generation aerospace composite designed for electric ...

Boeing and Airbus have led the way for the use of modern composites and have achieved incredible advancements through ...
