The Story of Carbon Fiber - The Birth of Panerai 616

Carbon fiber (abbreviated as CF) is a new type of high-strength, high-modulus fiber containing more than 95% carbon. It is a microcrystalline graphite material obtained by stacking organic fibers such as flake graphite microcrystals along the axial direction of the fiber, and carbonization and graphitization. Carbon fiber “soft inside and outside” is lighter than metal aluminum, but its strength is higher than that of steel, and it is characterized by corrosion resistance and high modulus. It is an important material in the defense industry and civilian use. It not only has the inherent intrinsic characteristics of carbon materials, but also has the soft processability of textile fibers. It is a new generation of reinforcing fibers. Get popular replica watches, copy watches, Panerai look alike watches at Copywatchalike.is, all watches are all in excellent quality with affordable price.

Carbon fiber has many excellent properties, carbon fiber has high axial strength and modulus, low density, high specific performance, no creep, high temperature resistance in non-oxidizing environment, good fatigue resistance, specific heat and conductivity between non-metallic and Metals have small thermal expansion coefficient and anisotropy, good corrosion resistance, and good X-ray transmission. Good electrical and thermal conductivity, good electromagnetic shielding, etc. Compared with traditional glass fiber, Young's modulus is more than three times that of carbon fiber. Compared with Kevlar fiber, Young's modulus is about twice that of carbon fiber. It is insoluble in organic solvents, acids, and alkalis. Excellent corrosion resistance. On February 15, 2016, China developed a high-performance carbon fiber that broke through the Japanese blockade.

The engineer first draws the design drawing on the computer, then introduces the drawing into the CNC machine and fixes the carbon fiber blank on the die. The CNC machine can process the complete blank into the components we need. If the first time you look at the machining process of CNC machines, you will be lamented by the advanced nature of modern industrial equipment. You will understand that industrial equipment can replace a lot of manpower, and the standard of manual processing is not as good as that of machines. Here is a small topic, some friends mentioned that using 3D printing technology to create watches, the effect will be better. But in fact 3D printing technology is still in the theoretical stage, and the precision can not be achieved and the limitations of the material. At present, domestic manufacturing is still dominated by CNC machining.
