A mold technology for high-cycle forming of thermoplastic CFRP

Technical Classification:
[ Molding ]
Products:
Keyword:
[ compression molding ] [ Thermoplastic CFRP ]

Point of the Proposed Technology

・To obtain an automotive part using thermoplastic CFRP, the company is working to develop a heat press molding technology that enables cost reduction at a higher cycle than the conventional thermosetting CFRP autoclave molding. In this effort, the company has developed a technology for accelerating the die heating/cooling cycle without unevenness in temperature during molding.

Effect(s)

・Higher molding cycle
・Improvement of the molding quality

Conventional Technology
