CFRP cans for high-performance pumps, electric motors & magnetic couplings

From prototypes to full series production. Increase your system efficiency by 25% – no eddy currents, optimised accuracy of fit and scalable series production for maximum performance.

Why carbon cans made of carbon fibre composite?

  • By using containment shells made of CFRP fibre composite materials, the loss due to eddy currents in a magnetic coupling can be significantly reduced or eliminated.
  • This significant improvement on conventional metal containment shells increases the efficiency of a pump or drive by up to 25%.
  • In addition, the loss-free power transmission prevents the pumped medium from heating up. 

Advantages from CFRP cans from the Connova Group

Our CFRP cans made of carbon material set new standards in manufacturing technology and offer numerous advantages for various applications. Thanks to the use of advanced carbon materials and innovative manufacturing processes, they guarantee high efficiency and reliability. These components have been proving this for decades in tough industrial processes.

Thanks to our own material developments, we are able to optimize and further develop the leak tightness, media resistance and electromagnetic properties in a targeted manner.

Up to 25% less energy consumption

No eddy current losses and heating of the pumped medium

High media resistance

High damage tolerance

Burst pressures up to > 100 bar

Enormous strength and rigidity

High-quality CFRP containment shells using RTM and prepreg autoclave processes

The RTM process is ideal for manufacturing high-quality CFRP  cans with high surface and reproducibility requirements. The textile semi-finished products made of carbon, glass or aramid fibres (preforms) are placed in a closable mould and then impregnated using resin injection. The result is a component with a final contour that is optimized for the load direction. Depending on requirements, the Connova Group also manufactures containment shells using the prepreg/autoclave process or moulding process. Depending on the requirements, we offer the optimal solution.
