The name Ilmberger stands for highest quality and innovation in carbon fiber manufacturing. Each part is produced in our own facility, where we use specially developed prepreg for Ilmberger as the base material. This is processed in an elaborate procedure in the autoclave, which offers numerous advantages.
Prepreg, a pre-impregnated carbon fabric, is characterized by an even resin distribution with a simultaneously high fiber volume content. This leads to maximum strength and increases the flexibility of the components. Processing in the autoclave, a high-pressure oven that operates under controlled temperature and pressure conditions, ensures perfect, uniform curing and a flawless surface. This method prevents air inclusions in the material and ensures consistently high quality of the parts.
Our carbon parts are laminated by hand with great experience and care, allowing for consistent fiber alignment without distortion. After curing in the autoclave, the edges of the parts are precisely cut by robot to ensure a perfect fit and highest quality.
A globally unique step in Ilmberger's production is the complete plastic powder coating of all carbon parts. This coating not only protects the parts from environmental influences but also gives them an incomparable depth effect. No other carbon manufacturer offers this type of sealing, which prevents the aging of the parts and significantly extends their lifespan. More information about the plastic powder coating can be found here.
The final clear coat layer on this component is high-gloss and ensures a perfect, smooth surface that further emphasizes the luxurious-sporty look of our carbon parts. Each part that leaves our production is a masterpiece of technology and design that meets the highest standards.
Ilmberger is not only a leading manufacturer of carbon parts for the aftermarket but also a recognized OEM producer for renowned manufacturers such as Ducati and BMW. Among other things, we manufacture parts for BMW in the World Superbike Championship (WSBK), as well as for the BMW factory team in the Endurance World Championship (EWC), where our parts are regularly put to the test under the toughest conditions. The expertise gained from this flows into each of our products, improving every single component.
