In the design process of composite materials, a series of important factors must be considered to ensure the performance, safety, and cost-effectiveness of the final product. These factors include material selection, structural design, manufacturing processes, environmental impact, and cost analysis. This article will discuss these key factors in detail and explain their importance in the design o...

Introduction Fiber-reinforced polymer composites, due to their lightweight and high-strength characteristics, have found applications in many fields, especially in the transportation sector, where they can effectively reduce vehicle weight and better achieve energy savings and emission reductions. Among them, long glass fiber (LGF) reinforced polyamide materials (PA/LGF) are widely used in the man...

As we all know, explosion-proof products have extremely specific requirements—explosion-proof ratings, material standards, sealing performance, functionality, certification requirements, and more. Among these, material requirements are particularly stringent. Taking explosion-proof cameras as an example, most currently use stainless steel or cast aluminum alloy for the casing, which can withstand ...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), commonly referred to as "drone," is an aircraft that is operated without a human pilot on board, using radio remote control and onboard programmed control systems, or fully or intermittently autonomous operation via onboard computers. As a new type of aircraft, drones differ from manned aircraft in terms of operational requirements and mission objectives. Drones typi...

Composite materials are new materials created through advanced material preparation techniques that combine components with different properties in an optimized manner. In the 1940s, due to the needs of the aviation industry, fiberglass-reinforced plastics (commonly known as fiberglass) were developed, marking the beginning of the term "composite materials." After the 1950s, high-strength and high...

1. Production Workshop The layout of the production workshop should consider two main aspects: meeting production requirements and optimizing layout based on production flow, while ensuring flexible energy use under specific production conditions. (1) Power Supply: Ensure a stable power supply with a moderate buffer to avoid excessive energy waste from unused capacity. (2) Efficient Cooling Water ...

In 3D printing, both long carbon fiber and short carbon fiber are used as reinforcement materials to enhance the strength and durability of printed parts. Here’s an overview of their differences: 1. Long Carbon Fiber Long carbon fibers are continuous strands that are incorporated into the printing material. This type of fiber provides superior strength, stiffness, and structural integrity to the p...

Injection Mold 1. If the mold cavity is poorly machined, with defects such as scratches, micro-pores, wear, or rough surfaces, it will affect the gloss of the plastic part. To address this, ensure precise machining of the mold to achieve a lower surface roughness for the cavity; if necessary, polish and chrome-plate the cavity. 2. If the cavity surface has oil stains, watermarks, or excessive mold...

In the new energy vehicle materials industry, polymers encompass plastics, rubber, silicone materials, and composite fiber materials such as carbon fiber. To avoid safety hazards associated with high-voltage systems, materials for new energy vehicles must not only be heat-resistant but also flame-retardant. Therefore, Xiamen LFT has introduced a flame-retardant polyamide solution targeting manufac...
