Forming strategy and development trend of continuous fiber reinforced metal matrix composites

Continuous fiber reinforced metal matrix composites，as representatives of high-performance structure-function integrated materials，the innovation of their preparation technology and the expansion of engineering applications have always been core issues in the field of materials. This paper mainly reviews the forming process of continuous fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites，systematically combing the advantages，disadvantages，and applicability of traditional forming technologies for fiber metal matrix composites. Aiming at the bottlenecks of traditional processes，high-quality integrated forming methods for new composites such as 3D printing technology and fiber metal prepreg preparation technology are discussed. The feasibility and application trends of these methods in forming structural parts of fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites are also discussed，with the aim of providing a reference for the development direction of high-quality preparation processes for metal matrix composites and their engineering applications.
