Case Study

VX Aerospace specify CCI’s re-Evo® MCF 200 gsm non-woven made with recycled aerospace grade fibers for all their carbon tooling, so it was intuitive they would evaluate it for their UAV program. This demonstration part is made with six plies of the same 200gsm Non-Woven resulting in a skin thickness of 0.1875 inches and a gloss surface from a non-polished tool. A VARTM process was used with an epoxy resin.

Oracle Team USA teamed with Carbon Conversions to integrate reclaimed carbon fiber from composites in the manufacture of their world-renowned racing vessels. Oracle Team USA recycled two of their racing yachts, recovering carbon from the boats and repurposing that recycled material into a mold for the next-generation watercraft.
