Described herein is a device for impregnating individual fibers, individual threads, or individual rovings with a matrix material, including a porous material that is soaked with the matrix material, and a metering installation for metering matrix material into the porous material, where an installation by way of which the individual fiber to be impregnated, the individual thread to be impregnated, or the individual roving to be impregnated can be pressed against an end face of the porous material is included, or where the porous material is received in a sleeve and the individual fiber, the individual thread, or the individual roving can be guided through the porous material in the sleeve. Also described herein is a method for producing a component from impregnated individual fibers, individual threads, or individual rovings.
A device for impregnating individual fibers (5), individual threads, or individual rovings with a matrix material, comprising a porous material (3) that is soaked with the matrix material, and a metering installation for metering matrix material into the porous material (3), wherein an installation by way of which the individual fiber (5) to be impregnated, the individual thread to be impregnated, or the individual roving to be impregnated can be pressed against an end face (7) of the porous material (3) is comprised, or wherein the porous material (3) is received in a sleeve (21) and the individual fiber (5), the individual thread, or the individual roving can be guided through the porous material (3) in the sleeve (21), the porous material being an open-cell foam having a cell size of a mean diameter in the range from 70 to 250 μm.
