Abstract

EPITHER is an innovative way of shaping composite materials that seek to combine the strength of continuous fibre reinforced thermoplastic (CFRT) composite materials with the high production rates existing in the forging industry. The use of composites in the manufacture of structural parts must make it possible to lighten the driving parts of vehicles and to give part of the solution to the reduction of CO2 emissions. Good material health is crucial for the production of structural parts, and some of the parameters associated with it are a direct consequence of the shaping conditions and have an influence on the strength of the final product. With a view to controlling and optimizing the shaping parameters, this study begins by defining the relevant material characteristics to be measured in order to judge the quality of the latter, then studying the links between the process and the finished product.
