Development of an Additive Manufacturing System for the Deposition of Thermoplastics Impregnated with Carbon Fibers

This work presents an innovative system that allows the oriented deposition of continuous fibers or long fibers, pre-impregnated or not, in a thermoplastic matrix. This system is used in an integrated way with the filamentary fusion additive manufacturing technology and allows a localized and orient...
