A woven textile defines a longitudinal direction and a horizontal direction. The woven textile includes at least one first zone, at least one second zone, at least one first binding thread, and at least one second binding thread. The first zone includes at least one first braid. The first braid is woven by a plurality of filaments and extends in a sinusoidal wave pattern. The second zone includes at least one second braid. The second braid is woven by a plurality of filaments and extends in a sinusoidal wave pattern. The first zone and the second zone are aligned along the longitudinal direction. The first binding thread extends along the horizontal direction and is woven with the first braid. The second binding thread extends along the horizontal direction and is woven with the second braid.

A fabric includes two parallel selvages, and can be wound onto itself in at least one winding direction running parallel or perpendicular to said parallel selvages. The fabric is to be kept taut and includes a support layer that has a front face and a rear face. The fabric includes at least two sheets, i.e. a first sheet and a second sheet, one of which is arranged on top of the other and which consist of reinforcement threads, said sheets being arranged on the rear face, and the reinforcement threads extending at angles of 5 to 85 relative to the winding direction, with said angles being symmetrical in relation to the winding direction.

Provided is a molded panel having at least one surface resembling a knit-like pattern, said panel comprising a plurality of stitches at least partially interconnected through connecting members wherein at locations where the stitch strand and the connecting member intersect they form together an integrated, solid molded material location and wherein the panel comprises through going apertures extending therethrough.

The present disclosure relates to a stitching yarn and non-crimp fabrics containing such yarn. The stitching yarn described herein is a multifilament stitching yarn characterized by two or more of the following properties: (a) comprises a plurality of polymeric fibers, (b) has a linear density of less than or equal to 80 dtex, (c) has a filament count of less than or equal to 0.8 times the dtex value of the stitching yarn, or (d) has a twist of less than 200 revolutions per meter (r/m). The present disclosure also relates to a fiber preform, composite material, and composite article containing the non-crimp fabric.

The invention relates to a net (200) having a plurality of warps (110) extending in the longitudinal direction (MD) and parallel to each other and several welt threads (120), of which one weft thread extends in each case to and fro between two adjacent warps (110) and connects the adjacent warps (110) to one another. Moreover, the net comprises a first support thread (130, 131) which extends along a warp (110) and penetrates the same at several points (181).

Ein Netz (200) weist mehrere sich in Lngsrichtung (MD) parallel zueinander erstreckende Kelton (110) und mehrere Schussfden (120) auf, von denen jeweils einer zwischen zwei benachbarten Kellen (110) hin-und herluft und die benachbarten Ketten (110) miteinander verbindet. Darber hinaus weist das Netz einen ersten Untersttzungfaden ((130, 131) auf, der entlang einer Kette verluft (110) und diese an mehrerern Stellen (181) durchstt.

The invention relates to a magnetic scrim containing a scrim which contains a plurality of yarns and a magnetic coating covering at least a portion of the yarns of the scrim. The magnetic coating contains magnetic elements and a binder, where the magnetic coating is at least about 40% by weight magnetic elements, and where the magnetic coating has an areal density of at least twice the areal density of the scrim.

The present invention is directed to a multi-axial fabric which is dimensionally-stabilized. The composite fabric has a substrate and a plurality of first, second, third, and fourth strands disposed across the substrate and oriented in non-parallel directions with respect to one another. Binding fiber secures the aforementioned strands to the substrate. The composite fabric can be substantially free of more than three strands overlapping at a common position on the substrate. A road employing the multi-axial fabric is described.

A method for producing a transformable dry preform, in particular for the creation of a product made of composite materials, includes the sequence of the following steps: simultaneous weft/wale knitting of at least one stitch thread and at least one unidirectional reinforcement thread, at least one stitch thread including a material, the nature of which being different to that of a material comprised in at least one unidirectional reinforcement thread, at least one of the materials being thermoplastic and having a melting point lower than the melting point of at least one other material, referred to as reinforcement material; and creating of a three-dimensional knit that constitutes a dry preform in the shape of the product that is to be obtained. Additionally, a product made of composite materials can be produced using the dry preform created by the method.

A knitted component for an article of footwear having a vertically inlaid tensile element is described. The vertically inlaid tensile element extends along a direction that is vertical or at an angle to the direction of the knitting process of the knitted component. A method of knitting the knitted component includes placing a quantity of a tensile element into an auxiliary element of the knitted component and vertically inlaying a tensile element by using needles of a knitting machine to hold the tensile element by loops while the remaining portion of the knitted component is formed. As the knitted component is formed along a horizontal direction on the needles of the knitting machine, the tensile element spools out from within the auxiliary element to form the vertically inlaid tensile element.

Systems and methods for weaving helical carbon fabrics with minimum fiber crimp are provided herein. In various embodiments, small denier natural or synthetic yarns are used in the warp direction to interlace the carbon fiber wefts with minimum deformation. Specific weave designs are used in combination with the small denier yarn to maintain the primary carbon fiber weft and warp un-crimped.
