Water jet technology

Processing fiber composites made easy

Fiber composites such as CFC, CFRP, GFRP and carbon are enjoying growing interdisciplinary popularity. At the same time, the need for gentle and universal cutting processes is increasing, as composite materials fray easily. The waterjet cutting systems from STM are suitable for cutting fiber composites.

Fatigue tests on composites

Material characterization at the Aerospace Center

The German Aerospace Center conducts research in the fields of aviation, transportation, space and energy. As a leading institution in this field, the Institute of Composite Structures has been working for many years on more efficient manufacturing processes for CFRP structures as well as on improved analysis and design methods. In future, a ZwickRoell testing machine will be used for fatigue tests on CFRP-reinforced composites.

Fiber composites

Producing composites economically

The aim of the "iComposite 4.0" research project, in which press manufacturer Schuler and other partners have joined forces, is to produce fiber composite parts economically. In the end, costs were reduced by 50 percent and throughput time by 40 percent.
