MAMBO is a 6.5-meter demonstrator boat developed by Moi Composites to show the capabilities of the company’s Continuous Fiber Manufacturing (CFM) additive manufacturing process for large marine ...

Composite 3D printing is often used for tooling and prototypes, but companies like Dive Technologies and Moi Composites are demonstrating that additive manufacturing (AM) can help solve challenges in ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new metal matrix composite that is so light that it can float on water. A boat made of such composites will not sink despite damage to its structure. This first ...

At one time, 3D woven preforms were considered experimental and exotic. In the early 1990s, a novel process of manufacturing thick, integral three-dimensional (3D) orthogonal woven fabrics was ...

A 3D-printing company plans to print large objects such as boat molds and components as it transitions research performed at the University of Maine’s Advanced Structures and Composites Center into a ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – An innovation that helps speed the design of fishing rods, skis and cell phone electronics soon will help NASA do its work in space. AnalySwift LLC, a Purdue ...

We've all heard about old metal car bodies being melted down for recycling, but what happens to the composite hulls and superstructures of past-their-prime recreational boats? Well, not much.

Composite lattice structures have emerged as an indispensable solution in high‐performance engineering, particularly in aerospace and civil applications. These structures combine advanced composite ...
