// Composite textiles – Preforming

Textile inserts close to the final contour

// Textiles for every geometry
Textile inserts close to the final contour from Gerster TechTex are specifically developed for use in components with complex geometries, offering maximum precision and efficiency. Manufactured from high-quality materials such as carbon, glass, flax, basalt, aramid, or hybrid combinations, the diameter can be individually adjusted between 3 mm and 15 mm. The inserts are laid up to widths of 28 cm and consist of multiple unidirectional or twisted yarns of varying diameters, which are reliably held together by a knitted structure.

Thanks to their close-to-final-contour manufacturing, the textile inserts are ideal as Fillers in edges. They prevent the formation of resin pockets and can be easily integrated into preforms. Their alignment can be unidirectional or twisted which makes them particularly flexible for different requirements.

Thanks to their three-dimensional structure the inserts adapt perfectly diverse geometries The excellent resin impregnation ensures clean processing results and high component quality. Production can be carried out endlessly on rolls, enabling cost-efficient and continuous manufacturing.

With their combination of flexibility, quality, and cost-effectiveness, the near-net-shape textile inserts from Gerster TechTex offer an ideal solution for modern manufacturing processes such as RTM, vacuum infusion, or pultrusion.
