Additively manufactured roof frame with local carbon fiber reinforcement

To date, polymer-based additively manufactured structures have failed to gain a foothold in vehicle bodies due to inadequate mechanical characteristics. Now, Audi and CIKONI have presented an approach combining additive manufacturing with carbon fiber reinforcement based on a concept study.

CFRP Manufacturing at Industrial Scale: Why Automated Composite Processes and Design for Manufacturing Are Becoming Critical Success Factors

The global aviation industry is undergoing a profound transformation. While aircraft performance and range have been the primary focus in recent years, requirements are increasingly shifting toward industrial scalability and cost efficiency. Modern aviation systems must not only be high-performing and lightweight, but above all economically […]

Process-Based Compaction Simulation for Realistic CFRP Laminate Design

Compaction Simulation as a Key Enabler for Realistic Composite Materials Structures Composite components are often modelled in structural design using idealized material models. Each ply is assigned a defined thickness, fiber volume content, and orientation. This approach is appropriate in early design phases. However, in highly […]
