One-Way-Cut (OWC) 3D Woven Carbon Plates
Our One-Way-Cut (OWC) carbon plates are produced by 3D orthogonal weaving with Z-axis reinforcement through the thickness. Thanks to this architecture you can machine the plates with CNC, waterjet and laser just like metal, with no ply separation. Because the vast majority of the fiber runs along the 500 mm length (x) axis, the plate is an ideal choice for parts that carry their load in a single direction. In mechanical testing it reaches test results up to three times higher than UD plates and twice those of 2D woven plates — a complete piece of engineering, worked out to the last detail. Every plate is made in a fixed 500 × 250 × 6.5 mm size and ships from stock in two Tg grades (120 / 140 °C) to match your service temperature.
Key features
- One-Way-Cut (OWC) architecture: the vast majority of the fiber runs along the length axis, delivering peak performance in single-direction loaded parts
- Two Tg grades: 120 °C and 140 °C — pick by service temperature
- Production method: Tg 140 → RTM, Tg 120 → vacuum infusion
More features
- Fixed size: 500 × 250 × 6.5 mm — ships from stock
- Through-thickness fibers run end-to-end — zero delamination
- CNC and waterjet cutting compatible — bolt-hole safe
- Tested range: 903–960 MPa tensile, 95–101 GPa flexural modulus (length-direction sample)
Applications
Defense — armored vehicle paneling Aerospace — structural sub-components Space — satellite structural sandwich panels Industrial — high-strength plate

10″ dead-cat geometry — high-strength 3D woven carbon composite drone chassis
3D Woven Drone Chassis
A 10″ propeller class, dead-cat geometry 3D woven carbon composite drone chassis. Through-thickness fibers eliminate the bolt-hole crack propagation and in-flight arm separation common to conventional 2D laminate frames — shock energy distributes through the entire structure rather than concentrating at a single point. Compared to 2D carbon laminates of the same thickness, the chassis exhibits markedly higher flexural strength, tensile strength, impact resistance and fatigue life.
Key features
- Higher flexural and tensile strength than conventional 2D carbon laminates
- High impact and fatigue resistance — shock energy distributes through the structure
- No crack propagation around bolt holes — fastener points stay safe under fatigue
More features
- 10″ propeller class, dead-cat geometry — propellers stay outside the camera FOV
- Drilling, waterjet and CNC milling without delamination — structural integrity preserved
Applications
Defense — ISR / reconnaissance & SAR UAV platforms Long-range FPV and reconnaissance Cinematic heavy lift (gimbal, DSLR / cinema camera) Industrial mapping, LiDAR and thermal survey

Custom Production & Profiles
In addition to the standard plates and drone chassis, we produce 3D woven composite parts in any custom geometry — T, Π (Pi), H and closed box profiles for structural beams, frame intersections and custom engineering. The defining advantage of 3D weaving is the absence of resin-rich zones at T/Pi/H/X profile intersections; the profile is woven in a single pass with no laminate seams or bond lines. Pricing depends on geometry-fiber-resin combination — leave a short brief in the form below to receive a quote.
Key features
- T, Π (Pi), H and box profiles — woven in a single piece
- No resin-rich zones at intersections — structural continuity preserved
- Carbon, glass, aramid and hybrid fiber combinations
More features
- Custom preform + RTM mold engineered to your drawing
- Prototype-to-series transition on a single production line
Applications
Structural beams and frame intersections Aerospace — fuselage and wing interconnects Defense — custom engineered composite kits Industrial — high-strength custom cross-sections
