Truss weave produced by 3D-weaving

Biteam AB has applied its technology to demonstrate the direct production of a 3D woven truss structure. The 3D-weaving process’ unique and high flexibility allows engineering trusses directly in both horizontal and vertical directions of a profiled cross-section.

Trusses are created using required number and size of vertical and horizontal wefts that interlace with warps. Such a 3D woven construction produced using carbon fibres is aimed to lend bending stiffness in two mutually-perpendicular directions.

Profiled 3D woven beams having cross-sectional shapes such as H, I, T and square, together with trusses in horizontal and vertical directions, hold the potential to further lower the weight of composite materials in load-bearing applications. The 3D-weaving process uniquely allows controlled placement of required number of yarns and in desired truss angle to meet different application needs.

About Biteam
Biteam AB specializes in the production of profiles materials through its patented 3D-weaving technologies. All 3D products are designed and manufactured in close cooperation with the customers. Founded in 1997 by entrepreneurs Frederik Winberg and Nandan Khokar, Biteam has evolved into 3D weaving centre.
