[Thermoplastic and High Formability] Unidirectional substrate 'Krapower Sheet'

A sheet that integrates Kurabo's unique unidirectional fiber-based material with thermoplastic resin powder. Achieves high-quality and cost-effective component manufacturing! High-cycle molding is possible.

The "CuraPower Sheet" is an intermediate substrate (semi-preg sheet) just before resin impregnation. This highly flexible material allows for direct molding, where lamination and heating melting are performed simultaneously, eliminating the need for multiple layers to be stacked, heated, and pressurized (consolidation) before molding, which significantly reduces molding costs. Additionally, because impregnation can be done at low pressure, it is also possible to mold large-sized parts at a high rate, which is difficult with press molding. 【Features】 ■ Achieves significant cost reduction in the molding process. ■ The heat and cool cycle is fast, making it suitable for the production of over 100,000 parts per year. ■ High-cycle molding is possible with reduced capital investment. ■ Applicable not only to press molding but also to vacuum bag molding, pull molding, and more. 【Examples of Applications】 ■ Aerospace, sports, and general industrial applications. * For more details, please contact us or download the PDF.
