Carbon fiber composite materials are used in a variety of equipment such as aerospace, automobile high-speed rail, medical equipment, intelligent machinery, etc., and they show performance advantages such as lightweight, high strength, fatigue resistance, low creep, and corrosion resistance in different application forms. The following introduces several common application forms of carbon fiber parts in China.
1. Carbon fiber plate
Carbon fiber radioactive inspection medical bed boards, medical pallets, etc. all use the good X-ray transmittance and lightness of carbon fiber composite materials. This application form is also widely used in plate-like parts in other fields.
2. Carbon fiber box
Carbon fiber has many application forms in boxes, such as carbon fiber composite precision instrument boxes, emergency medical boxes, aviation equipment boxes, automotive power battery boxes, boarding boxes, etc., which can play the advantages of corrosion resistance, lightness and firmness of carbon fiber composite materials.
3. Carbon fiber roller body
Roller parts are widely used in mechanical equipment such as textiles, printing, film, papermaking and lithium battery manufacturing. The use of carbon fiber composite rollers instead of metal rollers can not only improve work efficiency and reduce energy consumption, but also effectively improve the application value of rollers through better performance.
4. Carbon fiber tubular body
Intelligent robotic arms are typical applications of carbon fiber composite tubular bodies. They are thin but can carry heavy objects, are flexible and have low energy consumption. Zhishang New Materials has provided various types of carbon fiber composite arm tubes for the State Grid automatic inspection robot, tunnel exploration intelligent machinery, etc.
5. Carbon fiber wheel hub body
New energy vehicles pay more attention to the lightweight of the vehicle body than traditional vehicles. In addition to carbon fiber automotive interior parts and some simple structural parts, carbon fiber composite materials can also be used as automotive wheel hub materials.
6. Carbon fiber lining body
Using carbon fiber composite materials for the lining body of seats in aircraft, automobiles, etc. can reduce the weight of the seats themselves while ensuring sufficient strength. Zhishang New Materials emphasizes that the carbon fiber composite materials used in these vehicles need to meet the corresponding requirements in terms of flame retardancy and high temperature resistance.
7. Carbon fiber shell
The carbon fiber rearview mirror shell is one of the most common forms of carbon fiber composite materials used in new energy vehicles. It is mainly used for its stylish texture, lightness and strength. As a domestic new energy vehicle special parts partner, Zhishang New Materials plans to expand the production capacity of carbon fiber rearview mirrors by three times by 2023 to meet the growing domestic new energy vehicle market demand.
8. Carbon fiber skeleton
Carbon fiber composite materials are used to make automotive measuring tools because they are lighter and easier to operate than metal measuring tools. In addition, carbon fiber composite materials can also be used as support parts in large parts. While reducing the mass per unit area, it can also increase the load of parts in turn.
9. Carbon fiber bracket body
Carbon fiber composite materials are ideal materials for the bracket body of aircraft interior parts. In medical treatment, carbon fiber composite materials are more commonly used as bracket bodies. From the product categories of Zhishang New Materials, carbon fiber head brackets for dental examinations, carbon fiber breast brackets for radiological examinations, and even stretchers are all applications where carbon fiber composite materials can show their skills.
10. Carbon fiber special-shaped parts
In addition to the common forms mentioned above, carbon fiber composite materials are also suitable for various unconventional special-shaped parts. Not only can the layup of carbon fiber composite prepreg be designed, but the structure of parts can also be customized "one-to-one" according to the design drawings.
