A large number of processes are already being used in series production for the manufacture of fiber composite structures, but are also constantly being further developed. One of these processes is fiber winding technology, which is used to produce rotationally and non-rotationally symmetrical hollow bodies, especially in medium series sizes. The winding process is characterized by depositing pre-impregnated or inline-impregnatedsemi-finished textile products onto a rotating core. Both synthetic fibers and natural fibers are suitable for the winding process.
Both thermosets and thermoplastics are suitable as matrix systems, whereby thermosets have been the focus of industrial production to date.
In this research project, thick-walled, wound structures made of glass and carbon fibers are to be examined more closely.
