3TEX Releases New Products at COMPOSITES 2000 Show, World Leader in High Performance Fibers Technology Optimistic With New Products.Business Editors/High Tech Writers CARY, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 28, 2000 3TEX (tai epsion chi) A typesetting language developed by Stanford professor Donald Knuth that is noted for its ability to describe elaborate scientific formulas. Pronounced "tek" or the guttural "tekhhh" (the X is the Greek chi, not the English X), TeX is widely used for mathematical book , Inc. ( http://www.3tex.com ), a worldwide leader in developing next generation 3D fibers and composites, today introduced several new ground breaking products at the COMPOSITES 2000 tradeshow. The annual event is being held in Las Vegas Las Vegas (läs vā`gəs), city (1990 pop. 258,295), seat of Clark co., S Nev.; inc. 1911.

This morning on the show floor, 3TEX unveiled new prototype thick carbon and thick fiberglass fiberglass, thread made from glass. It is made by forcing molten glass through a kind of sieve, thereby spinning it into threads. Fiberglass is strong, durable, and impervious to many caustics and to extreme temperatures. components that can be used in a wide variety of commercial uses. "We are very excited about these new products and we believe they will help drive our sales efforts in the next 6-12 months," said Brad Lienhart, 3TEX Chief Executive Officer. The new components were created to bolster This article is about the pillow called a bolster. For other meanings of the word "bolster", see bolster (disambiguation). A bolster (etymology: Middle English, derived from Old English, and before that the Germanic word bulgstraz the company's efforts to establish 3TEX as a major fiber & composites developer in four key market segments: Transportation, Marine, Industrial, and Defense. Through it's U.S. patented technology, 3TEX is developing materials six times stronger than steel and lighter than aluminum for the U.S. military, protective jackets for police forces, replacement parts for vehicles, stronger than steel sections for highway bridges, as well as a wide variety of other innovative products. "Our mission is to become the leading producer of next generation 3D fabrics and composites," said Dr. Alexander Bogdanovich Vice President of Research, Development, and European Operations. "Our new thick carbon and fiberglass components put us steps ahead of the competition in this specific market. With our ongoing product development and extensive R&D efforts, we are shaping the future development of advanced 3D reinforced composites." About 3TEX, Inc. 3TEX is a world leader in designing, engineering, and developing "thick" industrial fabrics and "near net shape" composite preforms from its proprietary, high speed 3D orthogonal At right angles. The term is used to describe electronic signals that appear at 90 degree angles to each other. It is also widely used to describe conditions that are contradictory, or opposite, rather than in parallel or in sync with each other. , multi-axial, circular weaving weaving, the art of forming a fabric by interlacing at right angles two or more sets of yarn or other material. It is one of the most ancient fundamental arts, as indicated by archaeological evidence. , braiding and weft knitting knitting, construction of a fabric made of interlocking loops of yarn by means of needles. Knitting, allied in origin to weaving and to the netting and knotting of fishnets and snares, was apparently unknown in Europe before the 15th cent. processes. 3TEX "world class" productive design and analysis technologies are helping customers define product performance and specifications for a full life cycle. 3TEX will continue to expand its technology platform to be the SINGLE SOURCE for industrial fabrics and composite preforms. |
