  • Lightweighting with Arevo - Interview with Sonny Vu

    This week, I welcome Sonny Vu to the show. Sonny is a serial entrepreneur and CEO of Arevo, an advanced manufacturing technology company that automates the design and production of large, complex continuous carbon fiber reinforced polymer ("CFRP") composite structures.

    Their technology has the ability to build complex-geometry parts using chopped carbon fiber or, more importantly, continuous fiber reinforcement and high-performance polymers. However, the real innovation is combining digital technology with a six-axis robot to enable 3D parts with 3D fiber orientation.

    On this episode, Sonny will discuss his background as a serial entrepreneur and what drew his interest to Arevo's technology and market potential.
