Nice, so they managed to automate CF structure construction? That will bring the cost down in future Toyota model like the Prius :puke: or FT 86 :thumbup:
BTW the tension in each of the fiber in the distribution system must be phenomenal :ohmy:, you can hear them scream and rattle when they are flowing. |
^ Having worked for a company that makes all sorts of fiber reenforced polymers etc, I can tell you that there's not that much tension on each string.
