Important results from the project
The aim was to develop a more rigid CFRP material to a commercially acceptable cost, which has been achieved.
Expected long term effects
The new material will open a market for larger geometristyrane grippers.
Approach and implementation
The fiber is woven into a mat which has since been consolidated into various plastics. These plates have been tried in various ways to determine the material properties, processing possibilities. Within the framework of the project has also produced demonstrators.
