Abstract:The use of carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) contributes to weight reduction of automobiles and offers better gasoline mileage. Recently, to mold CFRTP with high-strength and highstiffness for complex shaped products with ribs and bosses, the hybrid molding system has been developed by combining press molding and injection molding. Although rib root shape is the important factor in the press and injection hybrid molding, the effect of rib root shape on the rib root strength has not been clarified y… Show more
