Magic Flow UD

Maximum flow rate for component thicknesses up to 140 mm

This unidirectional carbon NCF is one of our specially developed material solutions for applications with high laminate thicknesses. The flow-optimized carbon fabric aims to avoid dry spots in the laminate and significantly improve component quality - with maximum flow speed for particularly thick laminates.

Typical areas of application

Better protection against dry spots in the laminate

The risk of so-called „dry spots“ exists in particular if the textile reinforcement material has a low flow rate. The resulting incompletely impregnated areas impair the load-bearing capacity and service life of the end components, with potentially critical consequences for safety and performance.

Our Magic Flow UD has been specially developed to meet this challenge:

The advantages of Magic Flow UD at a glance

Application-optimized for thick laminate structures up to 140 mm

Efficient processing in all applications with particularly thick laminates.

Up to 3.5× faster infusion

Optimized impregnability for shorter cycle times in vacuum infusion processes.

Easy handling & high design freedom

Easy to process, even with complex geometries and large components.

5% higher compressive strength

Excellent mechanical properties in terms of strength in bending, stiffness and compression compared to standard NCF.

Developed for large structural components in wind and marine applications

Our Magic Flow UD shows its strength wherever thick laminate cross-sections and long resin paths are a challenge. 

Typical areas of application:

Wind energy

Blade chords of particularly long rotor blades

Boatbuilding

Structural components such as foils, masts and rotorsails
