Some common manufacturing options are pultrusion, resin injection, resin transfer molding (RTM) and filament winding. Design flexibility — Composites can be molded into complex shapes and textures at a relatively low cost. However, thermoplastic composites are gaining traction because of their recyclability, ease of manufacturing and design flexibility.

The design flexibility of thermoplastic resins enables the use of high-volume thermal forming manufacturing processes such as compression molding and vacuum forming with CFRTP materials. CFRTP can also be molded on or into thermoplastic structures via hybrid compression and injection overmolding to create locally reinforced, molded components in a one-step process. Explore how the versatility of continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites can help you minimize weight and maximize design efficiency.
