The cross-industry general development towards working effectively lightweight solutions continues unabatedly and leads to an increasing use of structural components made of ifber composites. At the same time, there is an increasing demand for the realization and integration of additional functions such as sensory properties. For the widespread application of intelligent lightweight components, manufacturing technologies suitable for series production are required. Fibre-reinforced polyurethane that made of different combined parts to offer a great potential for the making of smart lightweight structures. A novel method based on the Long Fibre injecting (LFI) technology fostering the integration of piezoceramic components and by their direct connection to suitable electrode structures the process immanent fabrication of sensory elements.
