Synopses & Reviews
The tremendous inherent advantages to materials produced by the braiding pultrusion process range from strength and dimensional ability to heat and chemical resistance. For this reason, braiding pultrusion technology is poised to revolutionize the construction, aerospace, and packaging industries. This in-depth resource delivers valuable insights on kinematic characteristics of the braiding process, calculation methods for the force parameters of the molding process, methods for selecting an efficient pultrusion process, as well as recommendations for special devices to monitor continuity of the process.
