Engineering Precision. Delivering Performance.

At Connova Group, composite manufacturing is the foundation of our engineering excellence. We specialize in transforming high-performance fiber materials into complex, precision-built components for mission-critical applications across aerospace, automotive, defense, and industrial markets. With over three decades of experience and a commitment to innovation, we combine material science, advanced production techniques, and quality assurance to deliver composites that meet the most stringent demands in strength, weight reduction, thermal resistance, and durability.

Material Expertise

The performance of composite components depends on the precise
combination of fibers and resin systems. Connova’s material specialists
evaluate application demands to recommend the most suitable composites:

Faserverbund Bauteile

Composite fiber systems in comparison: properties, applications and possible combinations

  • Carbon Fiber: High stiffness-to-weight ratio, ideal for aerospace and high-performance automotive parts.
  • Glass Fiber: Cost-efficient, corrosion-resistant, suitable for industrial applications.
  • Aramid Fiber (Kevlar®): Exceptional impact resistance, preferred in defense and protective equipment.
  • Hybrid Systems: Customized fiber blends tailored for multi-functional requirements and enhanced mechanical properties.

Each fiber system is paired with a carefully selected matrix resin to ensure optimal structural integrity and environmental resistance.

From Concept to Composite – Connova Leads the Way

Connova integrates every step of composite manufacturing under one roof, ensuring traceability, flexibility, and quality from concept to component.

Design & Engineering

Our engineering team supports customers through simulation and

optimization from the early concept phase. We use advanced CAD/CAE tools

and FEA analysis to ensure the design is functionally robust and production-

ready.

Tooling & Prototyping

Custom tooling is manufactured in-house with precision CNC equipment. Our

prototypes allow rapid iterations, ensuring alignment with customer

expectations before full-scale production.

Curing & Consolidation

Using autoclaves, ovens, and heated presses, components are cured under

precisely controlled pressure and temperature conditions, ensuring maximum

structural integrity.

CNC Finishing

Finished components undergo precise CNC trimming, drilling, and surface

refinement to ensure compliance with exact tolerances and aesthetic

requirements.

Quality Inspection

All parts receive close inspection, including dimension checking, NDT, and mechanical evaluation, which follow industry norms.

Manufacturing Processes

Connova employs a wide range of manufacturing techniques, selected based

on the geometry, load conditions, and production volume of each component:

  • Prepreg Autoclave Technology: High strength-to-weight ratio for aerospace-grade components.
  • RTM (Resin Transfer Molding): Ideal for thick-walled or complex geometries.
  • Vacuum Infusion: For large, high-integrity parts with consistent fiber impregnation.
  • Filament Winding: Highly efficient for cylindrical and rotationally symmetric parts.

Scalable & Repeatable Production To Accelerate Innovation

The production system at Connova is set up to handle both low production volumes and high series production. Because our workflows are flexible, we can make fast changes that keep production efficient yet never jeopardize the quality needed by OEMs in e-mobility or aerospace.

CNC-Prototyping

Digital Integration & Automation

Our facilities leverage Industry 4.0 practices to enhance consistency, traceability, and speed:

  • CNC-controlled filament winding with programmable fiber orientation
  • Digital resin infusion and autoclave process control
  • Data logging for every production stage
  • Digital twin technology for tool and process simulation

These technologies enable precise process control and continuous quality assurance, reducing waste and enhancing part repeatability.

Sustainability in Composite Manufacturing

Connova is committed to reducing the environmental impact of composite manufacturing by:

  • Minimizing waste through efficient material utilization
  • Using energy-optimized curing systems
  • Recycling production offcuts and trimmings
  • Exploring recyclable and bio-based resin systems

We help our customers to meet light-weighting goals while supporting sustainability standards in modern engineering.
