Carbon Fiber Audio Equipment

There are a variety of applications within audio reproduction for which the lightweight, high rigidity properties of carbon fiber offer significant advantages. One such avenue Kumair has explored is with the development of a first-of-its-kind titanium-core composite turntable platter. Our platters contain three key advantages:

  • Increased Rotational Inertia - Greater mass compared to glass, acrylic, Delrin®, and MDF. This increases rotational inertia and improves speed stability.
  • Vibrational Damping – A high-density material like our titanium-core is needed to adequately damp vibrations.
  • Maintain OEM Dimensions – A high stiffness to weight ratio material like carbon fiber is needed to ensure that the exact OEM dimensions of the turntable platter can be maintained.

Kumair works with audio equipment manufacturers to develop carbon fiber composite solutions. Contact us to learn more and see how we can help on your project.
