Course: Composites Manufacturing Methods

Overview

Learn about composite manufacturing methods most commonly used in the industry.

Composite manufacturing is ready to meet the demands of the modern world, including groundbreaking vehicles and aeronautical designs, which require ever lighter and stronger materials. Composite manufacturing is commonly associated with carbon fiber processes, composite manufacturing combines two materials to form a polymer with properties that would be hard to produce with a single material alone. The resulting composites are durable and light. This course teaches the fundamentals of composite manufacturing methods and gets into the details of the most common manufacturing methods.
