Zusammenfassung: | A long-strand carbon composite brake housing for use on aircraft is formed from a thermoplastic material carrying long-strand carbon fibers, with the composition, concentration, and orientation of the fibers being such as to optimize the strength of the resultant carrier plate, and particularly in regions subject to high stress and the like. A hydroforming technique accommodates the appropriate positioning of the thermoplastic carbon composition in the desired regions of varying concentrations, compositions, and orientations to achieve a carrier plate for aircraft brake assemblies that is lightweight while being reliable and durable in use. |
