Composites ProcessesComposites Processes

The CENIT experts of Composite have unique knowledge in the area of digital development, calculation, construction, and production of components made of fibre composite materials.  These play a more and more important role in aviation and aerospace, the automotive industry,  ship and yacht design, wind energy, as well as medical technologies.

With regard to the efficiency and quality of composite production, mould making becomes more and more relevant.  You can find out more about our capacities concerning this field in the mould making area.

Software Solutions in Composite:

The extensive standard modules of CATIA support the entire development and manufacturing process of composite fibre materials.  The functions are based on surface data and allow the following:

  • detailed definition of the ply stack ("Plies")
  • automated generation of ply books ("Plybook")
  • the deriving of solids for follow-up processes, as well as
  • a number of analysis tools.


In addition to the composite-specific functions of CATIA, CENIT offers further specialized solutions from partners such as Simulayt or Magestic:

  • Optimized control of cutters (TruNest)
  • Bi-directional interface to calculation programs (Composites Link)
  • Minimization of the production time for laser projection (TruLaser View)
  • Extension of the feasibility study (Advaced Fiber Modeller)

CENIT competences:

CENIT can offer you a powerful and complete package consisting of consulting, implementation, training, and support.  This package can be adjusted to your requirements by means of the special development of methods and additional tools.

The following in-parallel processes can be made notably more efficient by using our products:
