Fertigung, Untersuchung und Bewertung von mehrteiligen Preformen

Abstract

The intention of this work is to study the quality of the preforms manufactured manually. These preforms will be analysed using parameters such as drapability and compaction, among others. Changing different factors that intervene in the production, like the form of the heat applied or the conditions of pressure and temperature, different results will be obtained. The main goal of this project is to draw conclusions about the main factors that have influence on the final quality of the preforms. For that purpose, preforms with defined geometry of Non-Crimp Fabric (NCF) will be heated by conduction or infrared emissions to achieve a strong activation. Future improvements and guidelines will be deduced from these studies.
