forged carbon fiber is a unique material that has revolutionized various industries, including automotive, luxury goods, and sports equipment. Its unique properties, including high strength-to-weight ratio, stiffness, and eco-friendliness, have made it a popular choice for manufacturers looking to create high-performance and durable products. With continued research and development, forged carbon fiber is likely to find its way into even more applications, further enhancing its reputation as a lightweight and durable solution.
Lightweight : Carbon fiber is 5 times lighter than steel (ASTM-A1008) and almost 2 times lighter than aluminum when comparing similar sized pieces.
High Strength & Stiffness : Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has the highest specific strength and modulus (stiffness) per density compared to metal, plastic and wood.
Low Thermal Expansion: When metal is exposed to heat, it will expand and weaken which can cause issues and possible failure of the part. Carbon fiber has low thermal expansion.
Low Thermal Conductivity: Metal acts as a conductor, aluminum more than steel, which can transmit or radiate heat to its surroundings and cause heat soak. Carbon fiber has low thermal conductivity.
RF Shielding: Carbon Fiber works well to attenuate, or block radio frequency waves, protecting your devices from scanners or people trying to access your data.
