This article discusses the processes, pros and cons, and the differences between two of these two – subtractive and additive manufacturing. Since the Industrial Revolution, several manufacturing technologies have been developed. These technologies can be classified into various groups according to their processes. Three major groups are additive manufacturing, subtractive manufacturing and formative manufacturing. Check out the full article by Xometry Europe here: https://lnkd.in/e5F2cUwz

Over the last three decades, research on composite materials resulted in the development of alternatives to traditional materials which offer high strength-to-weight ratios, exceptional stiffness, and unparalleled chemical resistance. At Re:Build Oribi, we are expanding the potential of continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) composites in ways that were not previously possible thanks to our advanced manufacturing techniques. In our recent white paper, we dive into how innovations in automation and digital solutions are unlocking the full potential of CFRTP composites in sports and beyond. Learn why these materials are poised to transform not just sporting goods but also industries like aerospace, automotive, and medical.

Understanding Prepregs in Composite Manufacturing Prepreg, short for pre-impregnated composite, is a game-changer in how we create composite materials. It consists of fibers (like carbon or glass) coated with resin, which is only partially cured. This means the material is ready to use but can still be shaped and molded. Why Use Prepregs? 💡 Consistent Quality: The uniform resin distribution leads to stronger and more reliable materials. 💡 Easy to Work With: Prepregs simplify the layup process, making it faster and more efficient. 💡 Less Waste: Using just the right amount of resin helps reduce excess material. 🔦 Prepregs are widely used in industries like aerospace, automotive, and sports equipment because they offer a great strength-to-weight ratio. As we continue to explore new materials and methods, prepregs are paving the way for innovation in composite manufacturing! 🌍💡 #Composites #Prepreg #Manufacturing #Innovation #Engineering Chiron Labs
