A Simple Overview of Techniques of Composite Manufacturing

Datum Advanced Composites14 Jul, 2023Business

Composite manufacturing processes create strong, lightweight, and durable materials by combining two or more materials. The reinforcing phase, such as fiberglass or carbon fiber, is embedded in a matrix phase, such as epoxy or polyester resin. The manufacturing process varies depending on the desired properties, shape, and complexity of the final product. Commonly used techniques include hand lay-up, resin infusion, roll wrapping, and compression molding. These techniques allow for precise control over the arrangement and orientation of the reinforcing fibers, ensuring optimal strength and performance characteristics.
