Abstract
Methods of designing and producing a connecting rod using carbon fiber reinforced epoxy molding compound composite material are provided, such that the method allows connecting rod designer to machine several different connecting rod designs, lengths, and beams. The material is molded into a near-net shape. After molding, the blank is machined into the final shape of a connecting rod and the material is sealed.
