Säiestimen
Säiestimen is a Finnish term that translates to "filament winder" or "filament winding machine." It refers to specialized industrial equipment used for manufacturing composite structures through the process of filament winding. This technique involves winding reinforcing fibers, such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, or aramid, onto a rotating mandrel. The fibers are typically impregnated with a resin matrix, which then cures to form a rigid composite part.
Filament winding is a highly automated and precise manufacturing method. The säiestimen controls the path, tension,
Applications for components manufactured using a säiestimen are diverse. They are commonly found in the aerospace
