Filament Winding – A traditional manufacturing method reinvented

September 25, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am PDT

This webinar describes filament winding processes and technologies to produce fiber-reinforced polymer composites.

Historically, filament winding is known as a composite fabrication process by which resin-wet fibers are deposited on a rotating mandrel following specific geometric paths creating structures of revolution. The webinar first explores the basics of the filament winding process, with focus on process parameters that affect the properties of filament-wound parts.

Following this introduction of concepts, contemporary and emerging filament winding applications are presented, including the use of thermoplastic and non-traditional material systems. In this manner, the wide breadth of filament winding manufacturing capabilities are discussed.

Presenter:

Dr. Pierre Mertiny
Professor, Mechanical Engineering
