5.1 Benefits
-
The principle of centrifugation is simple, so the equipment required for its implementation is also straightforward, with the exception of resin and reinforcement handling systems, which are common to most mechanized processing techniques.
This simplicity is best expressed in the production of tubular parts with diameters of less than around 1 m, for which it is possible to use mat or fabric reinforcements; in this case, the machine is equipped with a matrix dispenser only. Composite materials produced under such conditions are of good quality, since the technique enables perfect impregnation of the reinforcements by the matrix.
As mentioned above, it is normal to...
