  • Patent number: 8323437
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for the continuous production of a multiaxial laid scrim web (2) using at least one uniaxial laid scrim (4, 5), which is wound about a winding apparatus (3) for producing a substantially tubular multiaxial laid scrim (8). In order to provide a method that allows a multiaxial laid scrim web (2) to be produced in higher quality with higher speed, it is proposed according to the invention to apply the uniaxial laid scrim (4, 5) onto the winding apparatus (3) at least with portions of its surface and thereby transport it continuously through the winding apparatus into a feeding apparatus.

  • Patent number: 8205425
    Abstract: A method for producing a multidirectional contexture made of fibers, in particular carbon fibers, in which a unidirectional contexture web is wound at an angle about a plate to form a coil, wherein the plate is provided with a device for compensating friction, and the coil is pulled off from the plate. In order to provide improved pulling of the fibers off a plate a cascade guide is being used, which is disposed at the end of the plate and which comprises a laterally extended wedge.

  • Patent number: 7921629
    Abstract: A method for producing a multiaxial contexture, from fiber materials, winds mono-axial contexture from at least one storage device about a winding plane, wherein the winding plane and the at least one storage device rotate about one another, in order to wind the mono-axial contexture about the winding plane. In order to prevent twisting the mono-axial contextures and to facilitate pulling it off from the winding plane, a vibration drive is proposed, which imparts mechanical vibrations onto the winding plane.

  • Patent number: 7921630
    Abstract: A method for producing a multiaxial contexture, preferably from carbon fibers, in which a mono-axial contexture is wound from at least one storage device about a winding plane, wherein the winding plane and the at least one storage device rotate about one another, in order to wind the mono-axial contexture about the winding plane, wherein the winding plane. In order to avoid distortions or twisting of the particular fibers of a mono-axial contexture, a slanted orientation of the longitudinal axis of the winding plane with reference to the direction of gravity is proposed.
