WINTERSTEIGER solutions for composite materials
Industrial processing of composite materials calls for maximum precision and process reliability. WINTERSTEIGER combines the band saw technology of HEMA with extensive materials expertise. This enables composite materials such as CFRP, GFRP, or sandwich structures to be processed in a controlled, reproducible, and cost-effective manner – even for demanding applications in aviation, the automotive sector, and the wind power industry.
Precise cutting of composite materials
The modern band saw technology enables material-friendly splitting of composite materials. Narrow kerfs and low-vibration cutting processes reduce delamination and prevent fiber breakout, which is particularly crucial when processing high-quality components.
Process reliability through automation
Machining CFRP, GFRP, and other fiber-reinforced composites can produce fine dust that poses a risk to work processes and safety. The product solutions from WINTERSTEIGER are designed for controlled processes and help to protect machine components and optimize workplace safety.
Individual system solutions for composites
Insulation materials differ significantly in terms of their structure, density, and composition. The cutting systems developed by HEMA can be precisely tailored to the respective material, from fiber-reinforced composites to complex sandwich structures.
