Is Carbon Fiber Material So Expensive?

Carbon fiber material has many excellent properties, low density, high specific strength and specific modulus, no creep, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and excellent X-ray transmittance. It can be called the king of prototype materials, but carbon fiber Materials have so many advantages but have not been applied on a large scale. The fundamental reason is that they are expensive. Let’s take a look at this article.  

The manufacture of carbon fiber includes four processes of fiber spinning, thermal stabilization , carbonization, and graphitization. The accompanying chemical changes include dehydrogenation, cyclization, pre-oxidation, oxidation and deoxidation, which need to be produced through complex processes. Carbon fiber, the production cost is high, and the natural price also increases.  

ISO 9001 certified. BE-CU Prototype Offering CNC machining carbon fiber and other manufacturing services for carbon fiber marterial. Various capabilities include notching, labeling, drilling carbon fiber, grinding, laser cutting carbon fiber, finishing, plating, marking, CNC milling carbon fiber and turning carbon fiber.We stock high quality 3k carbon fiber sheet in a variety of thickness, types and finish. Its a great material used in applications where light weight and strength are needed such as drones. Unlike other workshops, we have no min order and are often filling orders with a single part. We also don’t make you pay for the full sheet and you only get charged for what is used. With a large selection of material, you should find everything you need to make your project come to life. We are also able to handle larger production runs and provide a competitive pricing. If we don’t have the material or finish you require, we are more the willing to look at bringing it in for you.
