Weight save vs cost increase
bull The key driver is weight save due to the increase in specific strengthand stiffness that carbon fibre composites offer
bull The key enabler to using carbon fibre is lower cost ndash high costgenerally makes carbon fibre components prohibitive unlessadditional revenue can be made (eg cosmetic parts)

Weight save vs cost increase
bull The key driver is weight save due to the increase in specific strengthand stiffness that carbon fibre composites offer
bull The key enabler to using carbon fibre is lower cost ndash high costgenerally makes carbon fibre components prohibitive unlessadditional revenue can be made (eg cosmetic parts)
