Rocket Lab has now simplified this process with its innovative Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) machine. Thanks to this equipment, the process will be streamlined from weeks to a single day.

Tailored Fiber Placement (TFP) is an embroidery-based tow-steering process that enables complete control over fiber placement and directionality in a composite preform. During the process, continuous ...

This laboratory features Concordia's biggest robot used for advanced fiber placement for aerospace components. Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) is a new technique for the manufacturing of composites.

The Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) facility for manufacturing fibre-reinforced thermoplastic components at our institute was supported by the Ministry of FInance and Economics of Baden-Württemberg ...

With ultrasonic fibre placement, the challenge was to succeed in tacking a tape onto an underlying thick stack of plies at high speed, without slowing down the process and thus making it ineffective.

Previously, ART carbon fiber was for crafting large aircraft components such as the fuselage and wings. The ART method allows ...

No, it's a construction method called Automated ... fiber ribbon impregnated with adhesive with a jig that moves around the arm. It's essentially a combination of the traditional hand-laid process ...
