Automated preform process boosts properties and cuts cycle time
Fiber Patch Placement (FPP) achieves optimized fiber orientation for up to 150% increase in stiffness and reduced cycle time, weight and material waste.

As promised from my blog in July, here is a more in-depth update on Cevotec’s development of the Fiber Patch Placement (FPP) process. FPP was originally developed by Airbus Group (previously EADS Innovation Works, Ottobrunn, Germany) and has been further developed by Cevotec (Garching near München, Germany), a spin-off from TU München (Munich, Germany).
