Fully automated direct fiber placement process for automotive large scale production
Voith Composites realised an industrialised production chain for the Audi A8 CFRP rear wall with a capacity of >300 parts/day. Among other things the net shape direct fiber placement (Voith Roving Applicator) and a segmented 3D stamping process have been developed. Bonding and riveting are realised in a fully automated assembly cell. Overall, a completely digitalised and automated production chain, that eliminated several conventional process steps, were developed based on “Carbon Production 4.0” and enabled a cost-efficient high volume CFRP production.
