TCWM

A specialized sewing machine for composite fibers intended for the attachment of reinforced fibers.

Evolution of preform production - "TCWM" Composite fiber sewing machine

TCWM is a composite fiber sewing machine specially designed for sewing reinforced fibers. Carbon fiber and other reinforced fibers can be molded into shapes close to the final product, enabling mass production of high-precision preforms with minimal waste. Practical applications for this machine continue to expand, with examples including aircraft window frames, chairs, brake boosters and camping gear.

It combines high sewing precision and productivity

Any fiber reinforcement material, be it glass fiber, natural fiber, aramid fiber, carbon fiber, etc., is processed at maximum speed. The use of the TFP process, which combines lightness, high strength, cost-effectiveness and environmental characteristics, enables a design aimed at maximizing the material's capabilities.

TFP process, a modification of the CFRP concept

TFP (Tailored Fiber Placement) is a process in which reinforced fibers are sewn onto the base material to form a preform that meets the desired properties. Reinforced fibers such as carbon fibers, which exhibit strong anisotropy (strength only in the direction of fiber orientation), can be continuously and freely distributed, enabling the design of a composite material structure that provides the required strength in the desired direction.

Create more convenient seam data with "EDOpath 2.0" software, designed for use with the TFP process

"EDOpath 2.0" is a software specifically developed for TCWM that controls the precise placement of fiber bundles based on the required mechanical properties. This allows for more accurate fiber orientation data and optimal point data to be generated.
