Advantages
Utilizing CFRP materials can result in weight reductions of up to 80% compared to steel.
CFRP materials exhibit superior fatigue resistance compared to steel or aluminum solutions, enabling extended service life under dynamic loading conditions.
Inertia can be significantly reduced through the use of CFRP materials. Can be used wherever accelerated, oscillating or clocked movements are required. This enables faster acceleration & deceleration and shorter cycle times.
CFRP is characterized by its high specific stiffness (Φ = E/ρ) compared to steel. The stiffness is up to 9 times higher.
Owing to their high stiffness and low weight, carbon fiber components exhibit exceptionally high natural frequencies. Resonance ranges can be shifted upwards or downwards by adjusting the winding angle or fiber orientation.
CFRP elements can be manufactured with twenty times more passive dampening than steel. The vibrations can even be avoided thanks to the high dampening ratios. CFRP components subject to vibration come to a standstill much faster.
CFRP products are extremely resistant to chemicals. Rust and corrosion can be avoided and the resulting loss of material strength and aesthetic properties can be counteracted.
