Filament wind\ ing is the process of impregnating glass fiber reinforcement with resin, the\ n applying the wetted fibers onto a precision steel mandrel in a prescribe\ d pattern. Repeated application of wetted fibers results in a multilayered structural wall construction of the required thickness. HIGH PRESSURE HELICAL WINDING PROCESS The glass rovings pass through the bath, around the tension guide Bars, and are delivered to the mandrel in a complete 360 degree Configuration without laps or gaps common to the side winder Process. All rovings pass through the resin tank positioned above the head and tension bars. Each roving is completely submerged and Saturated in resin prior to encountering the mandrel. CONTINUOUS FILAMENT WINDING UP TO DN 4000 MM FIBERSTRONG ® pipe system is produced on FPG’s continuous filament winding machine which is a representative of the modern state-of-the-art filament winding technology for use in the manufacturing of glass fiber pipes. Simply, this machine consists of a mandrel composed of a helical wound continuous steel band, supported in a cylindrical shape by beams. As the beams turn, friction pulls the steel band around and roller bearings allow the band to move in longitudinal pipe direction so that the entire mandrel m\ oves continuously in a spiral path towards the exit assembly.
