In July 2022, The Native Lab (TNL, Madrid, Spain), Managing Composites’ training division, announced the addition of online sessions to its self-paced Composite Materials training course (learn more). One out of two of these online live sessions, a masterclass on manufacturing a carbon fiber prepreg monocoque, is taking place Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022 at 6 p.m. CET (12 p.m. EST).
Together, participants and the primary course trainer — Eneko Angulo, now chief operations officer (COO) of Managing Composites — will learn how to manufacture a carbon fiber prepreg monocoque, taking into account things like cosmetics, overlaps, width of roll, B-surface and sandwich construction. Angulo has previous experience from McLaren Automotive (Woking, U.K.) and Koenigsegg Automotive AB (Ängelholm, Sweden).
More than 100 people have already joined the composite materials course and will be joining the masterclass. By enrolling now participants will have access to this live session as well as all course materials. For more information visit the course syllabus page.
