Effect of Continuous Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Parameters on Flexural Strength of Teeth of Polyamide Composite Gears
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The effect of the number of reinforced layers and contours of continuous carbon fiber on the flexural load-bearing capacity of gear teeth in PA6 polyamide gears. The preparation of models and reinforcement paths was performed in the Stereotech Slicer software environment. Samples with different reinforcement patterns were tested. It was found that the highest maximum flexural load of 1107.7 N is achieved when using nine reinforced layers and one carbon fiber contour. Increasing the number of reinforced layers to eleven and increasing the number of fiber contours to two did not increase the load-bearing capacity, indicating the need to optimize the reinforcement topology of the gear wheel.
