Process Live: Hufschmied, Open Mind and VisCheck show milling processes with quality control
On the basis of a CFRP component, visitors to the fair can see a complete machining process - from CAD/CAM to milling and quality evaluation. The exchange of process data during milling and quality assurance data makes it possible to intervene in the machining process in the event of deviations from specified production, quality or threshold values.

Sports equipment: Composites push the limits of technical feasibility
Hardly any sport today can do without equipment made of high-tech materials with fibre reinforcement. New developments are mostly based on high-performance or professional sports. At ever shorter intervals, professional sports equipment is then also available in larger quantities to recreational athletes in mass sports.

Composites for the construction sector - established in GRP, with great growth potential in CFRP
Whether GRP or CFRP - the construction industry is one of the most important fields of application for composites. One reason for this is the variety of possible applications. Last year, 35 percent of the GRP produced in Europe was produced for the construction industry. And the market continues to grow.
