Voltex Profile Kits

Voltex™ Profile Kits are precision carbon-fiber reinforcement packages engineered for wind blade manufacturing. Each kit contains pre-cut, pre-formatted carbon fiber fabrics (often UD or stitched fabrics) with resin-compatible sizing, ready for placement in molds. Developed by Sigmatex, Voltex kits ensure that the exact amount and orientation of carbon fiber is applied to critical blade regions (such as root caps, trailing edges, or shear webs), improving consistency and reducing waste.

Key Features

  • Pre-defined Fiber Orientation: Kits include exactly-cut unidirectional or biaxial carbon fabrics aligned to the load paths.
  • Resin Infusion Compatible: Fabrics are dry (vacuum-infusible), compatible with epoxy or polyester infusion processes.
  • Multiple Ply Packages: Designed for stacking; often supplied in layers to be laid in sequence.
  • Tear-resistant Edge/Coating: Some kits include veil layers or edge coatings for handling.

Benefits

  • Consistent Quality: Eliminates variability of hand-cutting; each blade receives uniform reinforcement.
  • Reduced Waste & Labor: Pre-cut mats fit exactly, minimizing material scrap and cutting time.
  • Faster Layup: Ready-to-install bundles speed up mold filling and improve throughput.

Applications

  • Use in high-strength areas of wind turbine blades (e.g. near hub joints, inside shear web assemblies, or reinforcing transition zones). Also used in rotor hubs and other composite components where carbon fiber reinforcement is needed.

Technical Specifications

  • Each kit is tailored to a specific blade design. Typical carbon fiber type: high-modulus (XM42, etc.) or high-strength (Tenax) with weight 150–300 g/m². Kits can be supplied per layer (e.g. Layer 1, Layer 2…) and per length. We ensure traceability of fiber batch and resin compatibility.

Unique Selling Points (USPs)

  • Voltex profile kits are an industry standard for quality blades. Our kits come pre-packaged by Sigmatex and include detailed layup instructions. By using Voltex kits, manufacturers achieve repeatable blade performance. We also offer technical support to integrate Voltex kits into existing production lines, ensuring seamless adoption.
