Exhibit at World’s Largest Composite Materials Exhibition,
“JEC World 2025”

Toray Engineering Co., Ltd. (head office: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO & COO: Takashi Iwade; hereinafter “Toray Engineering”) will exhibit at “JEC World 2025,” one of the world's largest composite materials exhibitions, held in Paris, France from March 4 (Tues.) to March 6 (Thurs.), 2025. At the exhibition, Toray Group will showcase its latest composite material technologies and that of its Group companies outside Japan. Additionally, for the European market, a leading region in 3D printing, Toray Engineering will present a 3D molding machine for carbon fiber (CF) composite materials utilizing its core-shell method.

Toray Engineering’s 3D molding machine for CF composite materials gradually forms the shell mold using a light-curing 3D printer while sequentially pouring thermosetting CF composite material into the mold. Finally, the liquid CF composite material is heat-cured all at once to complete the molding process. Unlike conventional 3D printers, which use stacking, the strength and rigidity are uniform in all directions within the molded object, eliminating anisotropy, and as a CF composite material, it enables the production of high-strength, high-rigidity molded objects.

At our booth, we will showcase prototypes produced using the CF composite materials 3D molding machine, which meets the needs of various fields such as aerospace, sports, and medicine, along with video footage of the molding process.

Toray Engineering continues to contribute to society, offering cutting-edge solutions for Monozukuri (manufacturing) through its technology, engineering, and know-how.
Below are additional details about the exhibition.
