Continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) composites, produced in unidirectional tapes and laminate configurations, have the unique ability to add strength and stiffness while reducing manufacturing cycle times and enabling part consolidation of structural components in a wide variety of applications.
The continuous fiber reinforcement provides strong and stiff material performance, while the thermoplastic resin matrix enables design flexibility through post-forming.
