More Than CFRP-Components – We Deliver Solutions for Composites
At CIKONI, our work extends far beyond the engineering of individual composite parts. We specialize in developing holistic, customized solutions that span from simulation-based design to the creation of intelligent manufacturing systems. This multidisciplinary approach allows us to deliver innovations that bridge materials science, mechanical engineering, automation, and software – all under one roof.
The projects featured by CompositesWorld are prime examples of how these disciplines converge to solve complex challenges. By combining structural simulation, sensor integration, and data-driven process control, we enabled a higher level of process transparency and performance for composite pressure vessel (COPVs) manufacturing for example.
This kind of integration is not incidental – it is at the core of how we operate. Our engineering philosophy is rooted in cross-domain thinking and a deep understanding of the physical and digital aspects of composite manufacturing. Whether it’s implementing tailored process equipment or developing new sensor strategies for quality assurance, we approach each challenge with end-to-end responsibility and a deep commitment to innovation.
A Multidisciplinary Mindset for Mission-Critical and Composite-Intensive Applications
Composite pressure vessels are used in some of the most demanding technical environments – from hydrogen storage to aerospace and automotive applications. Reliability, precision, and performance are paramount. At CIKONI, we recognize that achieving these objectives requires more than technical excellence in a single domain. It requires the ability to work at the intersection of disciplines.
Our teams bring together expertise in lightweight design, embedded and connected systems, real-time data evaluation, and custom automation for composites. This enables us to not only analyze and optimize composite structures, but also to ensure that they are manufactured in a way that is robust, efficient, and traceable.
By uniting design, process, and system-level innovation, we offer our partners a unique value proposition: one point of contact for fully integrated solutions – tailored, scalable, and ready for industrial implementation.
