PRODUCTION OF GEAR MADE OF FIBER REINFORCED RESIN

摘要

PURPOSE:To produce a gear made of a long fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin having high physical properties and good dimensional accuracy with excellent productivity and workability. CONSTITUTION:A laminated sheet consisting of thermoplastic resin prepreg layers including long reinforcing fibers is punched into the shape of a gear or the punched laminated sheet is received in a mold to be subjected to compression molding under heating. The orientation of the reinforcing fibers is different in different prepreg layers.
