Abstract

Method of producing fiber composite semifinished products by means of a circular braiding technique, a braiding core being braided with braiding threads which are unwound by means of bobbins circling concentrically about the braiding core in different directions, characterized in that the bobbins of one circling direction are fitted with reinforcing threads and the bobbins of the opposite circling direction are at least partially fitted with supporting threads, the supporting threads at least partially consisting of thermoplastic threads.
