Carbon fiber spreader lines play a critical role by producing the spreaded fiber tapes input used in multiaxial and UD, non-crimp carbon fabric production.

Many offline spreaders installed over the past decades still remain mechanically functional, but aging automation systems, obsolete electronics and limited spare part availability increasingly affect reliability, productivity and serviceability.

BTU-TECH Carbon Spreader Retrofit System upgrades existing spreading lines with a modern automation platform, new electrical architecture and readily available industrial components while preserving the machine’s proven mechanical structure.

The retrofit improves reliability, simplifies maintenance and prepares the line for future production requirements.
