Material is first heated upon melting and mixed, while preventing fiber breakage. A molten dough is subsequently extruded.

Toray Industries, Inc. and Toyota Tsusho Corporation jointly developed the innovative energy-saving pyrolysis method for CFRP recycling and are promoting end use development.

The TPC-Cycle project targets production scrap by developing a recycling route for high-end and high volume markets, The objective is to retain the high mechanical properties of thermoplastic composites and reduce the overall environmental impact at affordable cost. This process has been used to produce the world's first flying part made using recycled thermoplastic composite materials.

The stamp molding process itself is conventional, i.e., the laminate can be stamp formed/press molded to shape in short-5-minute thermoforming cycles.

The flow layer consists of highfiber volume fraction recyclate, which processes as a Bulk Molding Compound and can be positioned on a conventional Reinforced Thermoplastic Laminate or added locally prior to processing.
