Aeronautics: how far will composites go?
automation
Fully-automated production of curved preforms
applied to designing the machine, which was built and installed at CTC Stade, at the Airbus site in Germany. The manufacturing trials showed that the machine can produce complex preforms in a quick and safe manner.
This innovation won a JEC Award in the Aeronautics category at the Paris JEC Show in March. With this project, BrötjeAutomation, well-known in the aeronautics industry, and their three partners perfectly meet the industry’s needs in terms of automation.
he innovation was developed as part of the LOKOST R&D project, partially funded by the German Aeronautics programme (LuFo) and conducted by the machine/equipment supplier Brötje Automation together with CTC Stade GmbH, Airbus and Faserinstitut Bremen (FIBRE). After defining the requirements, the FIBRE institute used simple test rigs to study all the relevant process parameters for the continuous draping, binder application and activation & compaction of the final preform for the LCF integral frame. This basic knowledge was
Full automation
A fully-automated machine was developed for this innovation. The machine can efficiently produce curved preforms for CFRP profiles (frames and stringers) used in aircraft structures. The process is the first real continuous process for the production of curved profiles for aircraft applications. It can produce radii of curvature between 1,500 mm and endless (straight profiles). Curvatures can be changed and complex layups with different fibre orientations (45°, 0° and 90° layers) in a single profile are possible (in profile web and flanges). The process has been validated for complex cross-sections such as the LCF integral frame under conditions close to mass production. CFRP profiles for aircrafts are currently produced manually, resulting in high cost and time consumption. For integral frames and curvatures below a 2,000 mm radius, the continuous process was developed up to velocities of 10 m/min. The machine can be driven without any manual intervention.
