Product Details

Functional introduction diagram of carbon fiber woven fabric

A lightweight, high-strength carbon fiber woven fabric crafted for demanding applications like UAVs, racing cars, and automotive parts. Designed to deliver exceptional performance while keeping weight to a minimum.

In the race for UAV endurance, racing car speed, and automotive energy efficiency upgrades, material performance has long been the core factor determining success or failure. Traditional metal materials or ordinary composite materials either drag down efficiency due to excessive weight or struggle to maintain stability under complex stress. Our lightweight, high-strength carbon fiber woven fabric, with multi-axial weaving technology and high-performance fiber combinations, is bringing game-changing material solutions to these fields.

Why Choose Carbon Fiber Woven Fabric? A Pain Point Solver for Three Core Scenarios

UAVs perform better when they’re lighter, which helps them stay in the air longer. At the same time, adding more strength enhances their safety during operation.

Industrial-grade UAVs need to balance load capacity and flight time, while agricultural UAVs must withstand high-altitude strong winds and the impact of frequent takeoffs and landings. Airframes made of traditional materials often fall into the dilemma: “reinforcing increases weight, while reducing weight makes them brittle.”
Our carbon fiber woven fabric weighs only 1/4 of aluminum alloy but offers over 5 times the tensile strength. After replacing the frame of a 6-axis industrial UAV with this material, the overall weight was reduced by 32%, single flight time extended from 40 minutes to 62 minutes, and wind resistance upgraded from Level 6 to Level 8—perfectly suited for operations in complex terrains.

Racing Cars: Dual Breakthroughs in Speed and Safety

In racing, the industry consensus is that “every kilogram of weight reduction translates to a 0.1-second lap time improvement.” Meanwhile, the shear force and impact force the car body endures during high-speed cornering and sudden braking put extreme demands on materials.
Carbon fiber fabrics with multi-axial weaving (0°/90°/±45° fiber arrangement) can improve stress dispersion efficiency by over 40%, avoiding the risk of local fractures. A racing team swapped out the chassis and rear wing with this new material, and as a result, the car lost 18kg in weight. It also handled corners better, with a 15% reduction in body roll. After 1,000km of intense testing, there were no signs of structural issues. In the end, this change helped the team set the fastest lap time of the season.

Automotive Parts: Balancing Energy Efficiency and Durability

New energy vehicles are placing greater emphasis on lightweight design. Reducing the vehicle’s weight by just 100kg can boost its range by approximately 8 to 10 kilometers. For components like engine mounts and chassis structures in traditional fuel vehicles, long-term exposure to vibration and high temperatures requires exceptional material fatigue resistance.
Our carbon fiber woven fabric maintains stable performance from -40°C to 120°C, with a fatigue life over 3 times that of ordinary steel. Replacing the engine suspension brackets with this material resulted in a 45% reduction in weight. Also, vibration transmission decreased by 20%, leading to a noticeably quieter and smoother driving experience. It has also undergone over 100,000 cyclic load tests, surpassing the industry standard of 80,000 cycles.

Technical Advantages: Performance Leaps from Multi-Axial Weaving

Compared to traditional unidirectional or bidirectional carbon fiber fabrics, our product achieves all-round performance breakthroughs through precision multi-axial fiber layout (0°/90°/±45°):
  • More Uniform Stress Distribution: In complex stress scenarios like high-speed rotation of UAV propellers and sudden acceleration of racing cars, loads are evenly transmitted along the fiber direction, reducing the stress concentration factor by over 40% and greatly lowering the risk of fracture.
  • Stronger Interlaminar Bonding: Optimized weaving density (20-60 threads/cm) pushes interlaminar shear strength above 80MPa—far exceeding the 50MPa standard of ordinary fabrics—ensuring components like automotive chassis don’t delaminate under long-term vibration.
  • Flexible Customization: The fiber content can be personalized within a range of 55% to 70%. When combined with low-viscosity resin systems, this allows for effortless creation of detailed shapes, like UAV wing curves or sleek racing car bodies, without needing extensive finishing work.
