Carbon Fiber Manufacturer

Carbon fiber composites have become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks in large part to two very desirable properties. The use of carbon fiber as a reinforcement in plastic composites greatly increases the tensile strength of the plastic. Composites made with carbon fiber also weigh significantly less than other materials--particularly metals.

There is a range of methods that can be used by a manufacturer to fabricate a carbon fiber composite. For products that do not require a high volume of production, the carbon fiber composite can be left to harden in a vacuum bag for one or two days. Compression molding is a faster process, and the molds do not need to be stored in a vacuum.

Making Material Choices with Your Carbon Fiber Manufacturer

Your manufacturer chooses the carbon fiber based on your particular application. As the density of the carbon fiber yarn increases, so does the strength. The downside, however, is that the stronger carbon fiber will also weigh more.

With such trade offs to consider, it is essential that you work with a knowledgeable carbon fiber manufacturer. At Concept Sales Inc., we have developed a large network of companies and have decades of experience in engineering and manufacturing ourselves, so we can partner you with the right manufacturer for your project. We can work with you to identify the best manufacturing process and tailor your work to the process.
