Braiding: Taking the
technology to the next
industrial level

* Machine concepts
* Applications: automotive, sports & leisure, etc.
PETER MIDDENDORF,
IFB DIRECTOR,
UNIVERSITY OF STUTTGART

in partnership with :

Braiding is a technique that presents many benefits, and an opportunity to get the best out of fibres.
Notably, it allows for stronger and
more damage tolerant composite
parts and improves manufacturing efficiency and repeatability.
This session will delve into various
applications in the Automotive and
Sports & Leisure industries, as
well as tackle machine concepts
and production quality.

March 16th - 2 pm

Composites as a worthy
alternative to traditional
materials in the construction
industry

The absence of official codes and
regulations in the building & construction field has long been a hindrance to the use of composite materials. However, with forecasts of
accommodation capacities doubling
by 2050, the industry needs low
mass, low energy consumption materials more than ever. This session
will delve into the full potential of
composite materials for construction, as well as common issues and
their solutions.
