Production facility for carbon fibre reinforced carbon components
Designed for the manufacture of carbon fibre reinforced carbon components (CFC)
The production plant is designed for the manufacture of carbon fiber reinforced carbon components (CFC). The stacks are prepared under controlled conditions at a separate packing station to prevent the spread of carbon fiber dust. This is followed by fully automatic feeding to the two-stage press, where the components are consolidated under pressure and temperature. The finished components are automatically removed and fed to the next process step, ensuring a consistently efficient production flow.
