Sep. 04, 2020 5:39 AM ET by Jay Traugott Technology / 4 Comments Why should only supercars get all the tech attention? As many of you are likely aware, carbon fiber is an advanced lightweight material found in airplane, rocket, and sports car and supercar construction. In other words, it's typically reserved only for the most expensive toys. Nissan, however, no longer believes that notion. That's why it has developed a new production process with one goal: to bring carbon fiber to more mass-market cars. The Japanese automaker claims its new process is capable of cutting the lead time to develop carbon fiber vehicle components by as much as half. The production of carbon fiber is known as compression resin transfer molding. Its new method involves forming carbon fiber into the right shape and then setting it in a die with a slight gap between the upper die and the carbon fibers. Next, resin is injected into the fiber and left to harden.Nissan Nissan Nissan Nissan Nissan also says it has developed techniques to simulate the permeability of the resin carbon fiber, while also visualizing resin flow behavior in a die using an in-die temperature sensor and a transport die.
