The typical chassis types seen in Formula Student competitions are mainly steel tubular spaceframes; aluminium sandwich monocoques; composite sandwich monocoques; and the different combinations of these. The chassis type is generally chosen depending on the available expertise, finances, and

Carbon fiber monocoque chassis for a car was manufactured using a new novel method which is different from the existing method of manufacturing a monocoque chassis. Eliminating the mould making process has not affected the quality of the final carbon fiber product, it has good surface finish and there are no defects present in it,

2003年9月30日 · This chassis model is then covered in carbon fibre to create a mould from which the actual chassis can be made. Once produced the mould is smoothed down and covered in release agent so the carbon-fibre tub can be easily removed after manufacture. The mould is then carefully filled inside with layers of carbon fibre.

2024年8月29日 · A monocoque chassis forms the backbone of most modern single-seater and sports competition cars. With a monocoque, the entire homogenous chassis structure is stressed, directly carrying all the loads applied to it.

2022年7月1日 · This case study describes a manufacturing process of composite chassis also known as monocoque. The structure is made using carbon bre reinforced polymers (CFRP) which are manufactured in...

2021年1月20日 · I have recently picked up a project for my club at uni (FSAE), and am tasked with designing a carbon fiber monocoque chassis for our cars. Here is an example of one: I've been reading technical papers on the design of the monocoque, and have seen teams use quite a few different mold and layup techniques.

From this plug, a mould is then constructed. This is done using a high temperature fibreglass and resin, which produces an exact replica of the plug above. It is very important that the surface is perfect and no fibreglass is exposed, otherwise the carbon fibre will stick to the surface when you complete the final carbon fibre chassis.

2020年12月10日 · In 2019, we successfully implemented our first pair of carbon fibre composite monocoque chassis, replacing the tried and tested tubular steel space frame. The work presented in this report highlights this journey and is the culmination of over four years of development dating back to late 2014.

The MCD team prototyped multi-piece mold manufacturing using a 1/4th scale model of representative chassis geometry. This project was called the “baby mold,” which was a 4-piece carbon mold that could be used to verify that parts can be pulled from a multi piece mold.

2019年9月7日 · 1. The document describes a novel method for manufacturing a carbon fiber monocoque chassis. 2. The proposed method eliminates the mould making process from the existing three step process of pattern, mould, then product. 3.
