Join us for Part 2 of our interview series with Dr Seneviratne at NIAR as we explore the development of an LMPAEK (Victrex) thermoplastic composite. Manufactured from a hybrid of thermoforming + injection overmolding process.
This traditionally Machined metal Rib was converted into a lighter Thermoplastic Overmolded part — cutting production from 100’s hours to just minutes.
• What are Thermoplastic Composites
• Thermoplastic Types for Composites
Natural Fibres - • Natural Fibres looking BETTER than Carbon?...
