Sigmatex announced on October 3, 2008 the installation of Liba MAX 5 multi-axial technology at its US facility in Benicia, CA, USA. Manufactured by Liba Maschinenfabrik GmbH of Germany, the MAX 5 offers state of the art capability allowing for the production of light weight multi-axial (NCF) stitched carbon fiber fabrics from large tow count fibers in addition to industry standard materials. It is also capable of processing demanding intermediate and high modulus fibers.

The Liba MAX 5 will allow Sigmatex to supply materials, previously supported by its UK operation, directly into the market from its US facility. Applications within Aerospace, Automotive, Marine and Industrial markets which require such capabilities can benefit from this advanced technology and increased product offering.

The addition of this advanced technology and increase in multi-axial fabric capabilities is yet another example as Sigmatex continues its global investment in textile technologies and capabilities thus maintaining its world leadership in carbon fiber conversion.
