Steady Plus UD Outstanding Quality combined with efficiency
A new kind of Carbon fiber NCF is the Steady Plus UD with reachable fiber volume fraction of 60% - to save resin consumption. This Unidirectional fabric has an outstanding drapability for a perfect match even in complex blade designs. This is based on a unique evenness and wrinkle-free behavior. The Steady Plus UD also shows excellent flow speed and impregnation for thick laminates of up to 150 layers.
Benefits
REDUCE RESIN CONSUMPTION - 60% FIBER VOLUME FRACTION Very high fiber fraction ratio, comparable to pultruded planks; less resin consumption to standard UDs. Cost saving potential for you.
HIGH DESIGN FREEDOM – DRAPABILITY Excellent drapeability means high design freedom for your blade design; existing blade designs usable
OUTSTANDING QUALITY & PROCESSABILITY Highest regularity, with almost no undulation and wrinkle-freeness makes it easy for you to process the SteadyPlus UD
FOR LONG BLADES: HIGH MECHANICAL PROPERTIES Improved alignment of the fibres; improved compression and 20% high tensile strength -> Ideal for spar caps
HIGH FLOW SPEED IN VACUUM INFUSION Less impregnation time in the mould; stacks with up to 120 layers possible -> stable process for your resin infusion
