How to Enhance Quality Control in Composites
Quality control in composite manufacturing is critical because the material’s properties are created during production, not before it. Every ply, cure cycle and process parameter directly affects the final performance of the part. For this reason, inspections must be applied at every stage: before, during and after manufacturing.
Before production, fibers, resins and prepregs are verified to ensure they meet all chemical, mechanical and traceability requirements. During manufacturing, monitoring fiber orientation, ply placement, vacuum integrity and cure conditions helps prevent defects early, while advanced computer-vision systems can detect subtle deviations long before they fall out of tolerance. After manufacturing, high-resolution inspections validate surface quality, fiber alignment, geometry and inserts, providing full traceability and reliable documentation for every component.
Modern, data-driven quality control doesn’t just catch defects — it elevates the entire composite manufacturing process.

Carbon Fiber Types
Discover the different types of carbon fiber, their mechanical properties, available forms, and tow sizes. Learn how each variant affects performance and which options are best suited for some of the most common applications
Is Carbon Fiber Stronger Than Steel?
Carbon fiber is often described as stronger than steel — and in many ways, it is. But the comparison isn’t simple. This article explores tensile strength, stiffness, weight, failure behavior, and when each material is the smarter choice.
Why is carbon fiber so expensive?
Carbon fiber isn’t pricey just because it’s high-tech —it’s because producing it involves costly materials, energy-intensive steps, and expert craftsmanship. Learn what makes carbon fiber so expensive, where the money goes, and why sometimes it’s actually the smartest, most cost-effective choice.
What is the difference between Hypercars and Supercars
Hypercars and supercars may look similar at first glance, but there are notable differences. From performance and power to craftsmanship and production numbers, discover what truly separates a hypercar from a supercar.
How can Artificial Intelligence improve composite parts?
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a futuristic concept—it’s now a practical solution for real-time quality control in composite manufacturing. At Managing Composites, we’ve developed ESEN·EYE to harness the power of AI-driven computer vision for complete part inspection, traceability, and process optimization. This technology not only ensures consistent, objective quality checks, but also enables early defect detection, real-time feedback, and a significant reduction in waste and rework.
