METHOD FOR SHAPING PROFILES OF UNIDIRECTIONAL FIBRE REINFORCED COMPOSITE MATERIALS DURING THE PRODUCTION PROCESS

The invention relates to a method for shaping profiles of unidirectional fibre reinforced composite materials stabilised with a wound thread. The method is characterised in that a unidirectional fibre reinforced composite material web stabilised with a wound thread is shaped in a press mould with an open region and remains in the press mould until a form-stabilising hardening has occurred. The form-stabilising hardening is brought about by energetic radiation introduced into the shaped composite material web through the open region of the press mould. The composite material and the energetic radiation are matched such that the energetic radiation reaches deep into the composite material web and a form-stabilising hardening of the shaped composite material web occurs from within by polymerisation of the reactive resin. The particular advantage of the method is a comparatively rapid form-stabilising hardening of the shaped composite material web, whereupon high production speeds on production of unidirectional fibre reinforced composite material shaped pieces can be achieved.
