FIBER CUTTING MACHINE USED FOR COMPOSIT MATERIAL

Abstract

This paper proposes a structure and kinematics parameters of a fiber cutting machine, which is used to cut fibers (such as jute fiber, bamboo fiber, coconut fiber…) for composite materials.  To come over this obstacle, dynamic and geometric parameters of cutting parts were calculated and studied, some fibers physico-mechanical properties and their effect in the quality of the composite materials were investigated.
