Engineered Excellence: Custom CNC Machined Carbon Fiber Composite Sheets

A carbon fiber board is a flat material made of carbon fiber-reinforced composite materials. Carbon fiber is a fiber material spun from organic polymers and formed after high-temperature carbonization treatment. As a high-performance material, carbon fiber has many excellent characteristics, which make it widely used in aerospace, automotive, construction, sports equipment and other fields.

Carbon fiber board is usually composed of two parts: carbon fiber and matrix material. The matrix material is mostly epoxy resin, polyester resin, or other thermosetting or thermoplastic resins. During the manufacturing process, carbon fibers are immersed in the matrix material and then cured into shape through processes such as lamination and hot pressing. The content and arrangement of carbon fibers will affect the performance of the board.

Advantages of Carbon Fiber Composite Board

High strength and high stiffness: The strength and stiffness of carbon fiber sheets are much higher than traditional metal materials such as aluminum alloy and steel. Its specific strength and specific stiffness are more than 10 times that of steel, which gives carbon fiber sheets a significant advantage in applications that require high strength and high stiffness.

Lightweight: The density of carbon fiber sheet is about 1.6g/cm ³, which is much lighter than aluminum alloy and steel. This feature is particularly important in the aerospace and automotive industries, as reducing structural weight can improve fuel efficiency and load capacity.

Corrosion resistance: Carbon fiber and its composite materials have excellent corrosion resistance and are not easily affected by chemicals such as acid, alkali, and salt. Therefore, carbon fiber boards are suitable for use in harsh environments, including marine and chemical industrial environments.

Low coefficient of thermal expansion: The coefficient of thermal expansion of carbon fiber is very low, making it dimensionally stable under temperature changes. This makes carbon fiber sheets suitable for fields that require high precision and dimensional stability, such as optical instruments and precision machinery.

Application fields of carbon fiber composite board

Aerospace: Due to its lightweight and high-strength characteristics, carbon fiber sheets are widely used in structural components of aircraft and spacecraft, such as fuselage, wings, tail fins, etc. The use of carbon fiber materials can significantly reduce aircraft weight and improve range and load capacity.

Automotive industry: In the automotive field, carbon fiber sheet is used to manufacture body, chassis and other components, which helps reduce vehicle weight and improve fuel efficiency and power performance. In addition, carbon fiber materials are widely used in high-performance racing cars to improve speed and handling performance.
