Outline

Discontinuous filament winding machines refers to filament winding equipment which use a discontinuous mandrel.
These machines are commonly used for the production of chemical resistance or high pressure pipes, and pressure vessels for LPG, CNG and CHG.
The equipment runs on CADWIND software program so it’s possible to produce 2-axis to 6-axis pressure tanks including ultra-high pressure hydrogen gas tanks.

CADWIND Program Software (Filament Winding Process Software)

Always use CADWIND Program Software for the filament winding machine produced by Kimtec.

Developer: Material S.A (Belgium)

CADWIND, a software for filament winding of composite materials, is a program designed to produce products under the filament winding conditions of volume by calculating
the fiber trajectory and winding pattern of filament winding.

Features of CADWIND Program

1) CADWIND is a physical modeling including friction modeling, which simulates and realizes the phenomena occurring in the actual winding machine.
2) Calculate winding patterns for line symmetry and non-symmetry
3) Provides a wide range for users to wind
4) The fiber realizes slip removal from the winding surface
5) Create virtual winding prototype model
6) Calculation algorithm
  : analytical formulas + physical modeled non-geodesic winding

Tape Wrapping Machine

It is a facility dedicated to the defense industry to tape-rape tube or cone type non-continuously using glass fiber and carbon fiber prepreg,
and is equipped with precise driving functions from 3 to 6 axes.
