Carbon-Sheet Moulding Compound (C-SMC), in which the material is pressed into shape using high pressure and heat. The components produced are "cast in one piece", have highly complex 3D geometries and can be manufactured quickly and economically.

By integrating ribs, different wall thicknesses or functional elements such as threads and fits, highly integral components are created which cannot be produced with conventional carbon manufacturing processes.

The new design freedoms are the key to a number of new applications and industries. Carbon is thus gaining in importance in all industries where lightweight components (automotive, aerospace, medical technology, sports equipment and mechanical engineering) make a difference.
