Why Choose Horizontal Autoclave to Manufacture Carbon Fiber Parts?

Horizontal autoclave (also called carbon fiber autoclave or composite autoclave) is a professional equipment that is used for carbon fiber materials hot pressed curving. The special designed horizontal autoclave has the characteristics of accurate control and uniform temperature. Now Tai’an Strength Equipments Co., Ltd will give an introduction of why choose horizontal autoclave to manufacture carbon fiber parts.

Firstly, the carbon fiber (CF) is a new type fiber materials with carbon content more than 95% and high modulus. CF is a microcrystalline graphite material made of flake graphite microcrystal and other organic fibers along with the axial direction stacked which is derived from  by carbonized and graphitized.

Carbon fiber materials are more and more widely used for different industries due to its high axial strength and modulus, low density, high specific performance, no creep, ultra-high temperature resistance, good fatigue resistance under non-oxidation environment, specific heat and electrical conductivity between non-metal and metal, small coefficient of thermal expansion and anisotropy, good corrosion resistance, good X-ray transmittance and so on. Due to these characteristics, horizontal autoclave is more and more popular in carbon fiber production industry. In February this year, China has been completely free to develop the first hundred-ton T1000 carbon fiber production line.

The horizontal autoclave equipment is relatively simple and efficient. It is suitable for the formation of large-area complex surface skins, wall panels and shells, and can form various aircraft components. Some manufacturers have customized large horizontal autoclave to place multilayer mold at a time. At the same time, molds can simultaneously form more complex structures and components of different sizes. The most fundamental operation of the horizontal autoclave for carbon fiber materials is to reduce the porosity in the material, and the original pores are filled, which increases the density of the material. The performance is more significant. So if you want to make good use of carbon fiber materials, carbon fiber autoclaves are generally good choice.
