centrotherm has developed an innovative technology concept to stabilize carbon fiber precursors together with the German Institutes of Textile and Fiber Research Denkendorf (DITF). The concept is based on centrotherm's low-pressure technology and enables optimal control of process atmosphere and oxygen concentration. Compared with conventional production concepts, process duration is reduced by up to 30% and energy consumption is cut by up to 50%. The centrotherm production concept has a modular design and is scalable. While c.LAB Carbon offers maximum flexibility and an annual capacity of one ton for research & development, the c.STAB Carbon production and pilot systems cover annual production capacities of 10, 20 and 250 tons per system unit.
