Rapid layup: New 3D fabric and preform technology.
Hook and loop fasteners enable automatic speed layup of carbon, aramid, glass and hybrid fabrics while improving composite's mechanical preformance.
Carbon 3D Fabric Fiberglass 3D Fabric Aramid 3D Fabric Hybrid 3D and 2D Fabric
Low cost hook-and-loop 3D composites have a 100% stronger interlaminate strength.
