Company overview

Manufacture focus, service offers:
Production of semi-finished textile products for the reinforcement of plastics and other composite materials;
Multiaxial fabrics and 3D braids made of high-performance fibers (glass, carbon, aramid) and other fibers;
Multiaxial non-crimp fabrics are textile surfaces that provide optimum properties for their area of application due to the flexible design options in the manufacturing process. The structure of the scrims can be adapted to the subsequent loads acting on the components by selecting and combining suitable fibers and by orienting the fibers accordingly in the direction of the main load axes. The possibility of combining several layers facilitates handling in the downstream production stages. Time savings and weight savings are just some of the points that contribute directly to reducing the cost of component manufacture; 2D + 3D braids represent a further development of conventional braids. This technology, which is still under development, is used to produce "tailor-made" endlessly profiled semi-finished textile products. Here too, the focus is on optimally matching the properties to the subsequent area of application. Variable cross-section geometries and surfaces, individual and load-oriented thread guides in the cross-sections open up new perspectives in the 3rd dimension
