NEWS 21 CompositesWorld.com AZL Aachen • New Designs for Low-Cost and Energy-Efficient Double- Belt Presses • Ultra-Fast Manufacturing of Tailored Composite Blanks • Assessment of Existing Standards for FRP Pipes and Vessel towards Development and Qualification • Correlation of morphology and mechanical properties of TP-FRP laminates In September, AZL began a Joint Market and Technology Study on High-Performance SMC. The goal is to provide in-depth knowledge on applications, key challenges and technologies and establish HP-SMC as an efficient solution for highly cost-driven applications. This initiative is open to new participants until the end of this year. AZL's Business Platforms support targeted market devel- opment within the current AZL Industrial Workgroups: Thermoplastic composites, High-speed RTM, Composite pipes and vessels and High-performance SMC. This includes four Web sites that provide industrial players — especially OEMs and Tiers — with details on each of these technology areas. A new collaborative model called Joint Business Development supports AZL member pursuits in new markets and regions, including co-working spaces on the RWTH Aachen Campus. One of the first targeted regions is Poland.
