  在碳纖維增強塑料(CFRP)的輕量化設計中,高效的批量生產是在越來越多的應用和行業中進一步建立這種材料的關鍵。纖維鋪設的生產方法 - 以及自動化,載荷路徑優化,材料高效鋪設和切割纖維 - 起著重要作用,因為這種方法是工業生產的理想選擇。為了將這項技術融入各行業的大批量應用中,并進一步提高效率和資源利用率,SGL Carbon和Fraunhofer IGCV于今年年初成立了纖維配置中心。該中心總部位于奧格斯堡附近的Meitingen的SGL工廠。系統制造商Compositence GmbH和BA Composites GmbH以及慕尼黑工業大學的碳復合材料主席也加入了合作。此外,系統專家Coriolis Group SAS和Cevotec GmbH也計劃成為合作伙伴。
  繼今年3月在巴黎JEC工業博覽會上次亮相FPC之后,FPC今天在現場慶祝其開幕式,來自政界,科學界和工業界的約150位嘉賓。與會者包括Franz Josef Pschierer(巴伐利亞州經濟事務,能源和技術部長),Eva Weber(奧格斯堡副市長),Michael Higl博士(Meitingen市長)和JohannH?usler(巴伐利亞議會議員)。Martin Sailer(奧格斯堡地區行政長官)通過視頻信息露面。
  FPC擁有不同的高科技系統和超過500平方米的空間,為客戶提供開發新生產概念的選項,并在原型生產中展示它們。此外,SGL Carbon可以從大批量生產纖維增強部件開始。加工具有或不同塑料樹脂的干燥和預浸漬纖維,也稱為熱塑性基質體系。將加工具有或不具有熱塑性基質系統的干燥和預浸漬纖維。
  目前,各地的航空航天公司和各種汽車零部件制造商的二級和一級結構零件項目的準備工作正在進行中。該中心的工作與西格里碳素輕量化應用中心(LAC)的工作密切相關。 1,500平方米也位于Meitingen工廠,該公司與客戶合作,不斷開發創新的輕質結構,工藝和原型。
 
  FPC團隊由幾名工程師,博士生和技術人員組成,因此所有相關的核心學科都可以在復合材料制造流程鏈中得到應用。由于與慕尼黑技術大學和弗勞恩霍夫IGCV的合作,該團隊還將由在終論文課程中工作的學生陪同,以便創造促進年輕人才的佳條件。開幕式上的報道:
  FPC就職慶典的嘉賓受到了JürgenK?hler博士(SGL Carbon席執行官),AndreasWüllner(SGL Carbon復合材料 - 纖維和材料業務部門負責人)和Klaus Drechsler博士(董事長)的歡迎。 Fraunhofer IGCV和慕尼黑工業大學碳復合材料主席)。三位主持人在主題演講中強調了新技術的重要性。
  “對于我們SGL Carbon來說,復合材料輕量化部件的系列化生產是我們公司和發展戰略的關鍵要素。我們希望由纖維增強塑料制成的部件成為每個主要行業的標準。一個關鍵是正確的生產方法 - 纖維放置是幾種引領潮流的方法之一。通過新的中心,我們現在可以提供這項技術,初來自航空航天業,也可以提供給工業級別的其他部門,“JürgenK?hler博士表示。
  “多虧了FPC,我們在纖維鋪放領域擁有深厚的專業知識,并擁有令人印象深刻的設備設置。對于我們的許多客戶而言,這是一個很有希望的機會,可以超越現有的工藝能力,用于連續生產由纖維增強塑料制成的部件,“AndreasWüllner解釋道。
  “纖維鋪設中心清楚地反映了弗勞恩霍夫協會的使命,通過應用研究為工業知識轉移提供大量支持,并推動纖維增強塑料的產業化。除了我們在中心的日常合作之外,我們還嘗試加強知識轉移,例如在FPC上的論文以及將研究與德國聯邦政府贊助的不同MAI碳項目相結合,作為Spitzencluster競賽的一部分或與Campus Carbon 4.0合作項目,“Klaus Drechsler博士補充道。

  When it comes to lightweight design with carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRP), efficient series production is key to further establish this material class in more and more applications and industries. The production method of fiber placement – and automated, load-path optimized, material efficient laying and cutting of fibers – plays an important role, as this type of method is ideal for industrial production. To incorporate the technology into more high-volume applications across industries and further improve efficiency and resource utilization, SGL Carbon and Fraunhofer IGCV founded the joint Fiber Placement Center at the beginning of this year. The center is headquartered at the SGL site in Meitingen, near Augsburg. System manufacturers Compositence GmbH and BA Composites GmbH as well as the Chair for Carbon Composites at the Technical University of Munich have also joined the cooperation. In addition, also the system experts Coriolis Group SAS and Cevotec GmbH are planning to come on board as partners.
  Following the premiere of the FPC at the JEC World industry fair in Paris this March, the FPC today celebrated its opening on site with around 150 guests from the fields of politics, science and industry. Attendees included Franz Josef Pschierer (Bavarian State Minister of Economic Affairs, Energy and Technology), Eva Weber (Deputy Mayor of Augsburg), Dr. Michael Higl (Mayor of Meitingen) and Johann H?usler (Member of the Bavarian Parliament). Martin Sailer (District Administrator of Augsburg) made an appearance via a video message.
  With different high-tech systems and a space of over 500 m?, the FPC offers customers the option to develop new production concepts and demonstrate them in prototype production. In addition, SGL Carbon can begin with high-volume production of fiber-reinforced components. Both dry and pre-impregnated fibers with or different plastic resins, also referred to as thermoplastic matrix systems, are processed. Both dry and pre-impregnated fibers with or without thermoplastic matrix systems will be processed.
  Already today, preparations of projects for for secondary and primary structural parts with aerospace companies and various automotive parts manufacturers worldwide are under way.The center’s work is closely linked with that of SGL Carbon’s Lightweight and Application Center (LAC), a facility measuring again around 1,500 square meters also located at the Meitingen site, wher the company works with its customers to continually develop innovative lightweight structures, processes and prototypes.
  Fiber placement – the automated, load-path optimized, material efficient laying and cutting of fibers – plays an important role for industrial production of Composites.
  The FPC team consists of several engineers, PhD students and technicians, so that all relevant core disciplines can be covered along the composite manufacturing process chain. Thanks to the cooperation with the Technical University of Munich and the Fraunhofer IGCV, this team will also be accompanied by students working in the course of final thesis so that also the best possible conditions for the promotion of young talents are created.
  Quotes on the opening:
  Guests at the FPC inaugural celebration were greeted by Dr. Jürgen K?hler (CEO of SGL Carbon), Andreas Wüllner (Head of the Composites – Fibers & Materials business unit at SGL Carbon) and Dr. Klaus Drechsler (Director of Fraunhofer IGCV and Head of the Carbon Composites chair at the TU Munich). In their keynotes, the three hosts emphasized the importance of the new technology.
  “For us as SGL Carbon, series production of composite-based lightweight components is a crucial element of our company and growth strategy. We want components made of fiber-reinforced plastics to become a standard in every major industry. One key is the right production methods – with fiber placement being one of several trendsetting approaches. With the new center, we can now offer this technology, originally coming from the aerospace industry, also to other sectors at an industrial level,” states Dr. Jürgen K?hler.
  “Thanks to the FPC, we have bundled profound expertise in the area of fiber placement, along with a truly impressive set-up of equipment. For many of our customers, this is a promising opportunity to exceed existing process capabilities for serial production of components made from fiber-reinforced plastic,” explains Andreas Wüllner.
  “The Fiber Placement Center clearly reflects the mission of the Fraunhofer Society, to provide substantial support in knowledge transfer to the industry by means of applied research and to advance the industrialization of fiber-reinforced plastics. Besides our daily cooperation at the center, we also try to reinforce the knowledge transfer, for example with dissertations at the FPC and by combining research with different MAI Carbon projects sponsored by the German federal government as part of the Spitzencluster competition or with Campus Carbon 4.0 projects,” adds Dr. Klaus Drechsler.
