In this study, the quality of pre-consolidation of a PA6 based glass/carbon hybrid and a glass mono-material UD-tape laminate has been analyzed and the influence of the pre-consolidation step on flexural properties of end-consolidated laminates was determined. For this reason, three different pre-consolidation qualities were mechanically and optica...
Endless fiber reinforced plastics based on thermoplastic matrices permit shorter cycle times compared to thermoset resin based composites as no curing step is needed and ancillary times can be reduced. In this work an approach towards thermoplastic composites based on unidirectional endless fiber reinforced tapes (UD tapes) will be discussed and te...
In this work, the light weight and economic potential of multi-material systems with a combination of glass and carbon fiber unidirectional tapes (UD tapes) is shown. It is well-known that by the application of tapes, the resulting material scrap can be reduced compared to organo sheets. But besides this, UD tapes offer the flexibility to build-up...
