project should consider the complete process before production begins.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 1: Review the Drawing and Application<\/h2>\n<p>The drawing shows the geometry.<\/p>\n<p>The application explains why the geometry matters.<\/p>\n<p>Both are important.<\/p>\n<p>Before selecting a carbon fiber manufacturing process, the supplier should understand four areas.<\/p>\n<h3>Dimensions and tolerances<\/h3>\n<p>Important information may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Gesamtgr\u00f6\u00dfe<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tube OD and ID<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Wandst\u00e4rke<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Plate thickness<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Durchmesser der Bohrung<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Lochposition<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Slots and cutouts<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Assembly dimensions<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Critical tolerances<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Not every dimension needs the same tolerance.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a bearing hole or telescopic tube fit may require tighter control than a non-functional outside edge.<\/p>\n<p>Over-specifying tolerance can increase machining and inspection cost without improving product performance.<\/p>\n<h3>Load and function<\/h3>\n<p>The manufacturer should know whether the part experiences:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Bending<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tension<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Compression<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Torsion<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Vibration<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Impact<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Buckling<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Combined loads<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Carbon fiber is directional, so the layup should match the actual loading condition.<\/p>\n<h3>Current material<\/h3>\n<p>If the carbon fiber component is replacing an existing part, provide:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Current material<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Current weight<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Current dimensions<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Existing problem<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Zielgewicht<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Required improvement<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For example, the goal may not be to make a tube stronger.<\/p>\n<p>The real goal may be to achieve similar stiffness at significantly lower weight.<\/p>\n<h3>Operating environment<\/h3>\n<p>Environmental conditions may affect the resin, surface finish, adhesives, and metal fittings.<\/p>\n<p>Useful information includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Verwendung im Innen- oder Au\u00dfenbereich<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Working temperature<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Water exposure<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Salt exposure<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>UV exposure<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Chemical exposure<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Electrical requirements<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The earlier these conditions are known, the easier it is to select the right material system.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 2: Choose the Right Manufacturing Process<\/h2>\n<p>There is no single best carbon fiber manufacturing process.<\/p>\n<p>The correct process depends on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Product geometry<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Load<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Surface requirement<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tolerance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Anzahl<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tooling budget<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Target unit cost<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A practical starting point looks like this:<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Produkttyp<\/th>\n<th>Typical Manufacturing Route<\/th>\n<th>Main Reason<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Straight carbon fiber rod<\/td>\n<td>Pultrusion<\/td>\n<td>Efficient for constant profiles<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Standard straight tube<\/td>\n<td>Pultrusion or tube-forming process<\/td>\n<td>Suitable for simple geometry<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Custom structural tube<\/td>\n<td>Roll wrapping or controlled tube layup<\/td>\n<td>Better control of wall and fiber direction<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Telescopic

repeatability<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Cylindrical wound structure<\/td>\n<td>Filament winding where appropriate<\/td>\n<td>Controlled fiber placement around an axis<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>This table is a guide, not a fixed rule.<\/p>\n<p>The same part may be manufactured in more than one way.<\/p>\n<p>The decision should be based on performance and production economics rather than simply choosing the most expensive process.<\/p>\n<p>For a deeper comparison of tube manufacturing methods, link internally to:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pultruded vs Roll-Wrapped Carbon Fiber Tubes<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Step 3: Select the Carbon Fiber and Resin System<\/h2>\n<p>A CFRP component consists of:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carbon fiber + resin matrix<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both affect the finished part.<\/p>\n<h3>Carbon fiber grade<\/h3>\n<p>Different carbon fibers provide different combinations of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Zugfestigkeit<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Modulus<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Dehnung<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Processing behavior<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Kosten<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A higher fiber grade does not automatically create a better product.<\/p>\n<p>For many commercial components, layup, wall thickness, geometry, and connection design can be more important than simply changing from one fiber grade to another.<\/p>\n<h3>Resin system<\/h3>\n<p>The resin affects:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Cure process<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Heat resistance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Moisture resistance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Chemical resistance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Impact behavior<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Surface quality<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Production cycle<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The resin should be selected for the actual operating environment.<\/p>\n<p>A carbon fiber component used indoors at room temperature does not necessarily need the same resin system as a component exposed to high heat, chemicals, or continuous outdoor use.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 4: Design the Layup Around the Load<\/h2>\n<p>Carbon fiber does not behave like an isotropic metal.<\/p>\n<p>Fiber direction matters.<\/p>\n<p>Typical orientations include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p><strong>0\u00b0-Fasern<\/strong> for lengthwise strength and bending stiffness<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>\u00b145\u00b0 fibers<\/strong> for torsion and shear<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>90\u00b0 or circumferential fibers<\/strong> for transverse support and splitting resistance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Woven fabric<\/strong> for more balanced properties and visible surface appearance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The correct laminate often combines several directions.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a long carbon fiber tube may need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Longitudinal fibers for bending<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Angled fibers for torsion<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Circumferential reinforcement around clamps or inserts<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is why specifying only:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201c3K carbon fiber\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>does not define a structural part.<\/p>\n<p>3K may describe the tow or visible weave, but it does not describe the complete laminate design.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 5: Decide What Tooling Is Required<\/h2>\n<p>Tooling has a major effect on both sample cost and production cost.<\/p>\n<p>Different products require different tooling.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/lhcarbonsolutions.com\/de\/kohlefaserrohre\/\">Carbon fiber tubes<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Tube production may require:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Mandrels<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Wrapping fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Cure tooling<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Grinding fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Cutting fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Telescopic tubes may also require additional finishing to control OD, ID, straightness, and section fit.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/lhcarbonsolutions.com\/de\/kohlefaserplatten-2\/\" data-wplink-edit=\"true\">CNC carbon fiber plates<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>A flat CNC plate may not need a dedicated 3D mold.<\/p>\n<p>A laminate sheet can first be produced and then CNC-cut to the final shape.<\/p>\n<p>This is often practical for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Klammern<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Drohnenkennzeichen<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Machine panels<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Small-volume custom parts<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Molded carbon fiber parts<\/h3>\n<p>A curved or complex component may require:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Mold tooling<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Trimming fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Drilling fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Assembly fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Tooling becomes more important as production volume increases.<\/p>\n<h2>Prototype Tooling vs Production Tooling<\/h2>\n<p>Prototype and production tooling do not always need to be identical.<\/p>\n<p>A prototype may use a simpler method to verify:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Geometrie<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Fit<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Surface appearance<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Gewicht<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Assembly<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Basic function<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once the design is approved, production tooling may be optimized for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Faster cycle time<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Better repeatability<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Easier demolding<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Consistent hole position<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Lower labor cost<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is why expected annual quantity should be discussed early.<\/p>\n<p>A tooling method suitable for five samples may not be economical for thousands of parts.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 6: Lay Up and Form the Carbon Fiber<\/h2>\n<p>Once the tooling and laminate design are defined, the carbon fiber material is placed into or around the tool.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the process, this may involve:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Prepreg<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Dry reinforcement<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Woven carbon fabric<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Unidirectional material<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Chopped carbon molding material<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Layers are arranged according to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Faserrichtung<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Erforderliche Dicke<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Local reinforcement<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Surface requirement<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Local reinforcement<\/h3>\n<p>Critical areas may need additional reinforcement around:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Holes<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tube ends<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Inserts<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Clamp areas<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Bolted joints<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>High-load corners<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Adding reinforcement only where it is needed can be more efficient than increasing the thickness of the entire part.<\/p>\n<h3>Cosmetic surfaces<\/h3>\n<p>If appearance matters, additional attention may be required for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Weave alignment<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Fabric distortion<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Seams<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Resin-rich areas<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Surface pinholes<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Structural and cosmetic requirements should be specified separately.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 7: Consolidate and Cure the Part<\/h2>\n<p>The laminate must then be consolidated and cured.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the material system and product, possible processes include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Vakuumverpackung<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Oven curing<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Out-of-autoclave curing<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Press molding<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Formpressen<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Aush\u00e4rtung im Autoklav<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The manufacturing method should match the performance requirement.<\/p>\n<p>Not every carbon fiber product needs an autoclave.<\/p>\n<p>For many industrial, sports, outdoor, and commercial parts, other controlled processes may provide the required performance at a more reasonable cost.<\/p>\n<p>The better question is not:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cIs autoclave the best process?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cWhich process provides the required quality and consistency for this product?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Step 8: Trim and Finish the Carbon Fiber Part<\/h2>\n<p>After curing, the part is removed from the tooling.<\/p>\n<p>Secondary finishing may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Flash removal<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Edge trimming<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Grinding<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Sanding<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Polishing<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Matte finishing<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Gloss finishing<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Painting<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Clear coating<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For tubes, additional finishing may be needed to control:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Au\u00dfendurchmesser<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Surface smoothness<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Telescopic fit<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Bonding areas<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For telescopic products, functional fit is usually more important than appearance alone.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6430 size-large\"

Production Parts<\/h2>\n<p>Sample pricing often looks high compared with production pricing.<\/p>\n<p>This is because prototypes may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Engineering review<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tooling<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>CNC programming<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Setup<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Fixtures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Manual processing<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Process adjustment<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These costs are spread across only a few parts.<\/p>\n<p>During production, the same fixed costs are distributed across a larger quantity.<\/p>\n<p>For a useful quote, buyers should provide both:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Sample quantity<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Expected production quantity<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Annual demand is also helpful.<\/p>\n<p>This allows the supplier to recommend a process that works for both development and production.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Mistakes in Custom Carbon Fiber Projects<\/h2>\n<h3>Choosing a process before defining the requirement<\/h3>\n<p>Starting with:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cI need an autoclave carbon fiber part.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>is often the wrong approach.<\/p>\n<p>Start with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Load<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Geometrie<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Fertig<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Temperature<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Anzahl<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Cost target<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Then select the process.<\/p>\n<h3>Choosing carbon fiber only by grade<\/h3>\n<p>Specifying T700 does not fully define the component.<\/p>\n<p>Performance also depends on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Layup<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Resin<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Dicke<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Geometrie<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Zerspanung<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Connections<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Copying a metal component exactly<\/h3>\n<p>Carbon fiber often benefits from redesign.<\/p>\n<p>A carbon fiber version may use:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Different wall thickness<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Larger tube diameter<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Local reinforcement<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Bonded inserts<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Different connection geometry<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A direct metal-to-carbon copy may not use the material efficiently.<\/p>\n<h3>Adding holes too late<\/h3>\n<p>Holes can create stress concentrations.<\/p>\n<p>Critical holes should be considered during the structural design stage.<\/p>\n<h3>Ignoring insert loads<\/h3>\n<p>A threaded insert may become the highest-loaded area of the part.<\/p>\n<p>Insert design should not be treated as an afterthought.<\/p>\n<h3>Applying tight tolerance everywhere<\/h3>\n<p>Precision should be used where it affects function.<\/p>\n<p>Unnecessary tolerance can increase machining and inspection cost.<\/p>\n<h3>Designing only for the prototype<\/h3>\n<p>A process that works for two handmade samples may become expensive at higher quantities.<\/p>\n<p>Always consider repeat production.<\/p>\n<h2>What Should You Send for a Custom

available yet, a sketch and basic dimensions are enough to begin the discussion.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ About Custom Carbon Fiber Manufacturing<\/h2>\n<h3>How are custom carbon fiber parts made?<\/h3>\n<p>The process normally includes drawing review, process selection, material and layup design, tooling, forming and curing, trimming, machining, assembly, and inspection.<\/p>\n<p>The exact route depends on geometry, performance, and production quantity.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the best carbon fiber manufacturing process?<\/h3>\n<p>There is no single best process.<\/p>\n<p>Pultrusion, roll wrapping, prepreg molding, vacuum processing, compression molding, filament winding, and CNC machining are suitable for different product types.<\/p>\n<h3>Does every carbon fiber part need an autoclave?<\/h3>\n<p>Nein.<\/p>\n<p>Autoclave curing is suitable for certain high-performance applications, but many commercial CFRP parts can be manufactured using controlled oven, vacuum, press, or out-of-autoclave processes.<\/p>\n<h3>What is carbon fiber layup?<\/h3>\n<p>Layup describes how carbon fiber layers are arranged inside the component.<\/p>\n<p>The number of layers and fiber directions are selected according to load, thickness, geometry, and performance requirements.<\/p>\n<h3>Do custom carbon fiber parts always need a mold?<\/h3>\n<p>Nein.<\/p>\n<p>Complex 3D parts often require molds, while many flat CNC parts can be produced from carbon fiber laminate without dedicated 3D tooling.<\/p>\n<h3>Can carbon fiber be CNC machined after curing?<\/h3>\n<p>Ja.<\/p>\n<p>Carbon fiber can be cut, drilled, routed, slotted, and countersunk after curing using suitable tooling and dust control.<\/p>\n<h3>Can metal inserts be bonded into carbon fiber?<\/h3>\n<p>Ja.<\/p>\n<p>Metal inserts are commonly used for threads, bearings, connectors, and assembly points.<\/p>\n<p>The insert geometry, bonding length, adhesive, and surrounding laminate should match the required load.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I make a prototype before production?<\/h3>\n<p>For most new custom components, a prototype or small validation batch is recommended to confirm dimensions, fit, appearance, assembly, and basic function.<\/p>\n<h3>Why are carbon fiber samples expensive?<\/h3>\n<p>Samples often include tooling, engineering, setup, CNC programming, fixtures, and manual processing costs that are spread across only a small number of parts.<\/p>\n<h3>What files should I send for a quote?<\/h3>\n<p>STEP files are useful for 3D parts, DXF for CNC-cut profiles, and PDF drawings for dimensions and tolerances.<\/p>\n<p>A photo or dimensioned sketch can also be used for an initial review.<\/p>\n<h2>Abschlie\u00dfende \u00dcberlegungen<\/h2>\n<p>Custom carbon fiber manufacturing is not simply a molding process.<\/p>\n<p>The finished component depends on a chain of connected decisions:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Application \u2192 Geometry \u2192 Material \u2192 Layup \u2192 Process \u2192 Tooling \u2192 Curing \u2192 Machining \u2192 Assembly \u2192 Inspection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A high-grade carbon fiber cannot compensate for a poor layup.<\/p>\n<p>A good laminate can still fail around a badly designed hole.<\/p>\n<p>A strong tube can still have a weak insert connection.<\/p>\n<p>And an expensive manufacturing process does not automatically create a better product.<\/p>\n<p>The best approach is to begin with the finished component and work backward.<\/p>\n<p>If you already have a drawing, send the STEP, DXF, or PDF together with the application and expected quantity.<\/p>\n<p>If you are replacing steel, aluminum, or plastic, also provide the current material, weight, and the problem you want the carbon fiber version to solve.<\/p>\n<p>That information makes it possible to choose a manufacturing process that works not only for the first sample\u2014but also for repeat OEM production.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6427,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_titles_title":"How
