3D Skeleton Winding (3DSW) Lightweight Structures
The 3D skeleton winding (3DSW) technology uses injection overmolded fiber skeletons. The amount of continuous fibers is reduced drastically by using load path-appropriate fiber skeletons. In combination with an optimized overmolding structure cost-efficient lightweight structures are achieved. A CE-certified winding cell as well as a virtual optimization and validation approach for 3DSW structures have been developed in the Korean German ZIM project ACCORD.
