Vibration Control
Ensuring Structural Integrity with Flexible Macro Fiber Composites
Controlling Vibrations, Improving Products – The MFC Advantage
For over 15 years, Macro Fiber Composites (MFCs) have been widely used in vibration control solutions across multiple industries. Their ability to minimize vibrations, enhance stability and improve performance makes them ideal for applications in aerospace, automotive, buildings and consumer products.
The Power of MFCs:

MFC P2 and P3 type
d31 effect – Contractor
P2 and P3 MFCs use d31 effect for actuation and contract up to 750ppm when operated at the maximum voltage rate of -60V to +360V. Both P2 and P3 MFCs are most commonly used for energy harvesting (PEH) and as strain sensors.
MFC Custom Design
In addition to manufacturing Macro Fiber Composite™ in a variety of standard sizes, we also offer numerous specialized MFC layouts. Specialty MFCs have more complex designs, including arrays of single MFCs, and also allow electronic components to be integrated with the MFC.
