Composites offer a great benefit in the application of high-speed machines: the low weight and high stiffness increase the natural frequency of a part, which increases the critical speed at which the machine can operate. In many cases this increases the output of the machine.

Another reason to use composites is the extremely high stiffness than can be achieved, for components in machines were deformations due to accelarations are critical. The high stiffness of the part prevents the deformations and keep the component within the allowable tolerances.

In most cases, the composite compentents need to have high geometrical accuracy, which is not straight forward in composites. During curing residual stresses can build up, which are relieved after machining which cause the product to deform. Also, to attach other components and electronics to the structure, many interface points can be required. We have gained extensive experience dealing with these requirements and making sure that all required quality is met.
