13 ATIRA proposed Incubation centre for Composites Processing

14 Objectives To provide solution to industry faced with composites processing issues Entity that bridges research technology and commercial scale up for industry 8 commercial scale composites material processes assets to work with industry on cost effective solution for composite processing To offer services in engineering, material evaluation & processing, business and material incubation To focus on networking entrepreneurs or new technologies with private industries To give commercial support to industry players

15 Focus Sector Proposed R & D areas Automotive

16 Weight Reduction - Hybridization Interdisciplinary, holistic approach Holistic consideration of materials, production processes and methods leads to new construction methods in multi-material design A holistic consideration of materials, production processes and methods with regard to costs, time and quality is therefore necessary Methods Time Multi-Material- Design Multi-Material- Design Production Materials Costs Quality

17 Composite Technologies Fiber Reinforced Composites Methods Production - Materials Thermoplastics - Injection Molding - Compression Molding - Direct Processing - T-RTM Thermosets - RTM - HP-RTM - Pultrusion - D-SMC - PUR Hybridization CAx methods for lightweight multimaterial design - Concepts - Design - Simulation - Optimization - Testing

18 Strength and stiffness Long Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics (LFT) Facts and Figures Continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastics Long-fiberreinforced Short-fiber Thermoplastics Thermoplastics Filled polymers Unreinforced polymers Elastomers Advantages of LFT and CFRT Higher strength and stiffness compared to short-fiber material High impact strength Potential for lightweight structures Function-integrated design Energy absorption Short fibers Long fibers Continuous fibers 5 mm 50 mm
