Composite Design and Manufacturing Technologies

Composite Design and Manufacturing Technologies The competence field Structural Design and Manufacturing Technologies (SF) is dedicated to the design and manufacture of fiber composite structures for lightweight construction applications. Compsite Design The material- and load-fair construction must be considered with the development of fiber composite applications suitable for lightweight construction. The design of the outer [...]

Modelling and Simulation

Modelling and Simulation The Competence Field Modeling and Simulation concentrates on the topics of process and component simulation. Many topics are closely related to the competence field of structural design and manufacturing technologies. By looking at the processes with the aid of a virtual process chain and the design using innovative materials and manufacturing processes, [...]

Measurement Systems and Monitoring

Measurement Systems and Monitoring In the Competence field Measuring Systems and Monitoring (MM), measuring systems are developed in order to accompany processes from the fiber production over the semi-finished textile product to the component in order to ensure quality and to improve the understanding of materials. Thus, this field of competence forms an interface to [...]

Fibre and Material Development

Fibre and Material Development The development of new engineering fibers and materials for fiber composites represents an important research area at the Faserinstitut. In the competence field of fiber and material development (FM) these research activities are bundled. Their implementation can be based on decades of expertise in the field of fiber and material characterization, [...]
