This technical document is intended for engineers, designers, and decision-makers in the rail industry, and covers:
Material specifications and the ARGO 500 HYPERSPEED additive-printing setup
Test protocols (ISO 5660-1, ISO 5658-2, ISO 5659-2, EN ISO 17084, ISO 4589-2) conducted in accredited laboratories
HL3 classification results for all requirements R1, R2, R7, R22, and R23
HL3 Fire Classification
Comprehensive flame-resistance, smoke analysis, and toxicity testing in line with the 2023 regulatory updates.
High Mechanical & Thermal Performance
A semi-crystalline super-polymer reinforced with 20 % carbon fiber, engineered to replace metals and traditional materials by optimizing strength-to-weight ratio.
Production Efficiency
Elimination of small-batch tooling
Reduction in lead times
Fully digital and localized control of the printing process
From interior walls to seating and even housings for wiring and electrical components, Carbon PEEK opens new possibilities for countless rail-vehicle parts that demand lightweight, flame-resistant, high-performance materials.
