GRP structural components for rotor blades Gone with the wind... Rotor blades of wind turbines are now too large to be transported over roads to construction sites. They are therefore manufactured in two parts and assembled at the construction site. The internal structural component is manufactured by IBK-Fibertec by means of a winding process. This is the inside blade of an E115 by Enercon: www.enercon.de www.wind-turbine-models.com

A worldwide success for IBK-Fibertec Professional antenna systems are installed all over the world on high transmitter masts and towers. As a radome (radar dome), GRP offers decisive advantages for transmitters: The highest degree of transparency in relation to electromagnetic radiation Protection of the antennas from environmental influences such as ice, snow, rain, wind and dirt Protection of antennas and brackets from corrosion Regardless of the weather conditions, the antenna systems can be inspected, upgraded and extended at any time.

Three times better For three key reasons, GRP for mobile phone masts is the optimal alternative to steel and reinforced concrete: 1. Low weight reduces material and logistics costs GRP masts weigh less than a third of reinforced concrete masts. This saves expensive access development in hard-to-reach areas, reduces the cost of foundations and minimises deployment costs, resulting in significant savings regarding material and logistics costs. 2. High degree of electromagnetic transparency GRP is transparent to electromagnetic waves. With this high degree of permeability, GRP is therefore the ideal material for the cladding of antennas. In addition, due to its minimal attenuation, it also allows for antenna installation inside the masts. 3. Extensive freedom from maintenance GRP masts are exceptionally resistant to weather and corrosion. Even in climatically demanding areas with high weathering requirements, regular costly maintenance is no longer required.

Resistant in all kinds of weather IBK has developed and manufactured a GRP support tower for its partner SPL for the coastal train in Ostend, Belgium. It is a worldwide innovation, since the mast provides both stability and insulation. Other advantages include corrosion resistance in the difficult weather conditions on the North Sea, as well as longevity. For the contact wire, insulators can be completely dispensed with, since the mast adequately acts as an insulator. www.powerlines-group.com

From development to realisation We support our customers in the planning, design and production of high-strength and high-quality products made of fiber composites. In order to be able to help them efficiently in all phases, we offer complete performance from a single source: Construction on modern 3D-CAD workstations (with SolidWorks to shorten development cycles) Static and dynamic calculations Laminate calculations using our own specialist software Structural design, including building applications FEM analysis Vibration measurements

Keeping our promise GRP Tanks are resistant to corrosion and acid, dimensionally stable and extremely durable. On request, IBK-Fibertec manufactures special containers in terms of size and pressure.

The chemistry is right Smokestacks made of GRP are resistant to corrosion and acid in relation to aggressive chemical media. IBK-Fibertec offers self-supporting GRP smokestacks with diameters of up to 3 m and lengths over 50 m.

Bring light into the darkness Lighthouses made of fiberglass are completely weather resistant, seawater resistant and sustainable.

They can handle a lot

Tranquillity itself, even during hurricanes Vibration absorbers serve to absorb building vibrations, particularly those caused by wind. They keep transmitter masts, for example, stable even in high winds and guarantee unrestricted transmission power. IBK-Fibertec develops vibration absorbers coordinated with antenna cylinders and transmitter masts from our own production.
