Filament Winding Process

At JSM Composites, we specialize in cutting-edge technology and precision engineering to deliver exceptional composite solutions. One of the standout technologies in our arsenal is the filament winding process. This sophisticated manufacturing technique is integral to the production of high-strength, lightweight composite structures. The filament winding process involves winding filaments under tension over a rotating mandrel to create intricate and robust shapes.

Filament Winding_Overview
The filament winding process is a highly efficient and precise method for creating composite structures. This process involves winding continuous fibers, such as carbon, glass, or aramid, onto a rotating mandrel in a predetermined pattern. The fibers are typically pre-impregnated with resin or passed through a resin bath during the winding process. Once the desired number of layers is achieved, the structure is cured to solidify the resin and consolidate the fibers, resulting in a strong, lightweight composite component.
