Technical Features

• The crafting process of the GTC Series airfoils involves meticulous attention, utilizing a combination of composite materials, specifically carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP). This unique composition allows the airfoils to attain exceptional levels of performance and precision while maintaining a lightweight yet strong structure. Additionally, the airfoils are strengthened with woven carbon fibers that are pre-impregnated, further enhancing their durability. To ensure the highest quality standards are met, advanced manufacturing techniques such as pre-impregnated composite manufacturing, high-temperature autoclaving, vacuum bagging, and the use of high-quality aluminum billet molds are employed throughout each stage of the production process.
• The development of the GTC Series airfoils involves skillfully utilizing composite materials that harness the advantages of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), a widely acclaimed material known for its lightweight and strong properties. These airfoils are meticulously created, with meticulous attention to detail, incorporating pre-impregnated carbon fibers that provide an optimal blend of strength and lightness. To ensure the production of airfoils of the highest quality, advanced manufacturing techniques such as high-temperature autoclaving, pre-impregnated composite manufacturing, vacuum bagging, and the use of top-quality aluminum billet molds are implemented. With their resilient structure, the airfoils achieve an impressive balance between lightweight design and durability.
  • Through the integration of carbon fiber composites onto 10mm 6061 billet aluminum pedestals and the application of a matte black powder coating, the GTC Series airfoils achieve remarkable stability, durability, and secure attachment. The inclusion of carbon fiber materials guarantees that the airfoils retain their lightweight and robust qualities, leading to an overall improvement in performance.
