CSMC replaces glass fiber with chopped carbon fiber, significantly increasing stiffness and mechanical strength per unit weight compared to standard SMC — while keeping the same compression molding process and cycle times. It is a common alternative to aluminum and steel in structural parts where weight reduction is critical, such as in automotive and rail equipment.
Our CSMC carbon fiber achieves a mechanical increase of over 40% compared to aluminum, with a drastic reduction in total part weight.
