Carbon Chakra
Carbon Chakra Is our research-grade desktop filament winding machine. It features a 4 axis filament winding system that is capable of winding circularly symmetric parts such as cylinders, tapered cylinders, and pressure vessels. The Machine is ideal for the manufacturing and testing of vessels and cylinders of small sizes ranging to 1.5m length and 250mm dia.
