Carbon SMC (Forged Carbon) is a new composite material and molding process. In order to offer a more practical solution for vehicle body/chassis structural component to extend the range of hybrid-electric and battery-electric vehicles, Giantec use randomly spread chopped carbon-fiber and epoxy resin to meet the goal. Different from autoclave, vacuum bagging or even RTM(VARTM), Carbon SMC compression has rapid processing cycles, excellent surface quality, and the ability, through use of a two-part closed mold, to precisely control part thickness and increase strength or stiffness. 

Typical cycle times run 60 minutes up per part via RTM. However, the cycle time of Carbon SMC is only 3-7 minutes depending on the thickness of the sheet.
