At the JEC trade fair in Paris (March 4 - 6, 2025, hall 6, stand G104), KraussMaffei will be presenting a diverse selection of exhibits on various composites technologies as well as the printCore industrial pellet extruder live in action. The company is thus underlining its expertise in the development and implementation of complete production lines for plastic components - from planning to series production.
KraussMaffei is focusing on lightweight and structural components for the automotive industry, including a carbon rim and a battery housing for electric vehicles, manufactured using the high-pressure RTM process. The company will also be presenting innovative exhibits with self-healing surfaces, manufactured using the ColorForm process. With the new battery encapsulation technology, KraussMaffei also offers an innovative solution for protecting battery cells with highly reactive polyurethane, which is specially tailored to the requirements of modern electric vehicles in the automotive industry.
A tractor mudguard manufactured using the long fiber injection process (LFI) will also be presented at the trade fair. This technology combines cost efficiency for small production quantities with a wide range of surface design options such as thermoformed foils or artificial leather. This results in flexible and versatile solutions for various applications in the commercial and agricultural sectors.
In the construction industry, KraussMaffei relies on the pultrusion process to produce durable, corrosion-resistant profiles and concrete reinforcements. Visitors to the fair will be able to inspect profiles for windows and other applications as well as reinforcing bars.
Pultruded profiles from KraussMaffei's subsidiary Pultrex also offer innovative solutions for renewable energies, such as for the assembly of solar panels and for rotor blade belts used in large wind turbines. These components are lightweight, durable and can withstand high loads.
