With the continuous development of the economy, people no longer only pursue material life, due to the increase of work pressure, exercise has become a way to release pressure, so the demand for sports equipment and performance requirements are getting higher and higher. Due to the continuous improvement of modern processing technology and material technology, more and more sports fields can use more advanced materials for the production of related equipment, carbon fiber composite material is one of them.
Carbon fiber materials benefit from their own corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, high strength, light weight and other advantages, greatly affecting the development process of modern sports equipment, not only to improve the service life of sports equipment, but also for the use of personnel in sports competition or exercise comfort and safety have significantly superior to the unique value of general materials. Let’s take a look at several molding processes for the application of carbon fiber composite materials for sports equipment.
- Winding molding: carbon fiber composite materials using winding molding technology for product processing has a wide range of applications. Usually, the raw material carbon fiber composite material is wound in a certain process in a fixed mold, and finally, different winding directions and forming methods are selected according to different carbon fiber composite materials for processing and molding, so as to maximize the performance of composite materials. At the same time, the winding molding technology has simple processing technology and high production efficiency, but it is only suitable for processing some products with fixed material forms.
- Die molding: This technology is similar to other metal materials and plastic materials for stamping die molding processing technology, which is a process prevention of placing raw materials into the metal mold cavity for fixed molding under certain temperature and pressure conditions. The use of die molding technology to process carbon fiber materials can obtain higher product productivity, and the processed products are accurate in size and low in cost, and the external surface formed by processing is smooth and delicate, and has a good look and feel. At the same time, the mold can also be reused many times, which is conducive to large-scale industrial production.
