In the currently highly topical and much-researched segment of composites technology, FRIMO together with its collaboration partners has developed an entirely new conceptual approach to and solutions for the production of fiber composite components on an industrial scale. These open up previously unknown possibilities with respect to cost-effectiveness, quality, ergonomics and process robustness. The economic large-scale production of fiber composite components made by the RTM method (resin transfer molding) thus becomes possible. Due to the lower clamping forces it is possible to work with molded mold inserts - in this case with ceramic molds from the collaboration partner Eschmann Textures, With these, reproduction of structures accurate in every detail is possible off-tool. For the Street Shark technology demonstration, FRIMO decided to implement a shark skin structure as a bionic surface, one which has been described frequently enough already but which has not yet been producible off-tool as an RTM component. In addition to shark skin other bionic surface structures are also conceivable or even any other kind of decoration, such as, for example, a wood look, which could be used for instance for applications in other industries such as the leisure and furniture sectors.
