Kuka robots make advanced carbon fibre components at Compositence

Compositence, based in Leonberg, Germany, has developed a process for the production of carbon composites that not only dispenses with the need for the customary manufacture of semi-finished products, but also reduces trimmings to a minimum.


A Kuka KR 150 R3700 K ultra robot ensures the reliable, high-quality feeding of the fibres to the laying head. Compositence’s patented manufacturing process has advantages not only for car production, however, but also for commercial vehicle, aerospace and wind power plant production.
