High-Precision Functional Surfaces on CFRP Components Investigation of Grinding Processes, Tribological Behavior, and the Service Life Based on the Example of Motor Spindle Components Made of Carbon Fiberreinforced Polymer (CFRP)

With increasing demands on the power density of electrical drive systems metal materials commonly used in mechanical engineering are reaching their performance limits. Further improvements can be achieved using carbon fiberreinforced polymers (CFRP). To enable their use in industrial practice, the SPOTLIGHT project focuses on the manufacturing and grinding of high-precision functional surfaces of CFRP components. The CFRP components are evaluated through drive technology demonstrators.
