W8SVR X-Ply
Thermoplastic tape fabrics - tailor-made for you
W8SVR X-Ply are low-waste, load-path oriented tape lay-ups that are particularly suitable for thermoforming and injection moulding or as structural reinforcement in multi-material constructions. We adapt the continuous fibre-reinforced semi-finished products to the laminate lay-up, size and geometry you require using Automated Tape Laying Technology (ATL). You can choose from a wide range of thermoplastic UD tapes and get a tailored composite blank that meets your structural and mechanical requirements at the lowest possible weight. With W8SVR X-Ply, the right material is always at the right place.
