Engineering and Textile Applications

Fabricating the rotor bow of a wire bunching (stranding) machine from cfrp lowers the weight and allows higher operating speeds. 

Icotec have developed a range of composite floating anchor nuts, which snap into a base plate mounted on a structure. One version is based on a carbon fiber/PEEK construction, providing low weight and is able to match the coefficient of expansion of the surrounding PEEK composite material.
