Point of the Proposed Technology
Pre-form Materials
2D: laminated sheet materials, tailored stacking materials (arbitrarily oriented tape laminated material)
3D: Three-dimensional forming products, ATL (tape lay-up) lamination products
They can be used in built-in into and assembly in the final forming process as composite intermediate parts.

Effect(s)
・ A wide variety of plastics materials can be used (PP. PA, PC, TPU, PPS, LCP, PEEK, PEKK、etc.).
・ It is possible to be used for making into products in combination with existing technologies such as mold injection.
・ It is possible to study response to a future environment as materials with recyclability.
・ It is possible to make additional processing such as partial reinforcement.
・ Delivery will be made as PF products in the minimum necessary size making it possible to contribute to reduction of material loss.
