SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING A LAMINATE
In one form of the present invention, a system for constructing a laminate (122) is disclosed. The system comprises a ply feeder (101) that sequentially stacks one or more plies (100) to form a ply stack (102). A computer (106) directs a laser (104) to cut each ply (100) to a desired shape after bec...

| description | In one form of the present invention, a system for constructing a laminate (122) is disclosed. The system comprises a ply feeder (101) that sequentially stacks one or more plies (100) to form a ply stack (102). A computer (106) directs a laser (104) to cut each ply (100) to a desired shape after becoming part of the ply stack (102). The ply stack (102) is then placed on a reconfigurable tool (112). An applied pressure compresses the ply stack (102) against the reconfigurable tool (112) while an actuator (124) subsequently reconfigures the reconfigurable tool pins (114) to a predetermined shape. In a more particular embodiment, a composites forming process is used, such as diaphragm forming, to compress the ply stack (102) before the reconfigurable tool pins (114) are reconfigured. In another particular embodiment, the reconfigurable tool pins (114) are first reconfigured then a vacuum diaphragm forming process is utilized to compress the ply stack (102) against the reconfigurable tool (112).
La présente invention concerne, selon un premier mode de réalisation, un système de construction d'un stratifié (122). Ce système comprend un introducteur de plis (101) qui empile séquentiellement un ou plusieurs plis (100) de façon à former un empilement de plis (102). Un ordinateur (106) commande la découpe par un laser (104) de chaque pli (100) selon la forme désirée après avoir été intégré à l'empilement de plis (102). On place ensuite l'empilement de plis (102) sur une forme reconfigurable (112). Une pression d'application sert ensuite à comprimer l'empilement de plis (102) contre la forme reconfigurable (112) pendant qu'un actionneur (124) vient reconfigurer les broches (114) de la forme reconfigurable selon une forme définie. Selon un mode de réalisation plus spécifique, on utilise un procédé de formage de composites tels que pour la mise en forme de diaphragmes, de façon à comprimer l'empilage de plis (102) avant que les broches (114) de la forme reconfigurable ne soient reconfigurées. Selon un autre mode de réalisation plus spécifique, les broches (114) de la forme reconfigurable sont d'abord reconfigurées, puis on a recours à un processus de formation de diaphragme de compression par dépression pour comprimer l'empilage de plis (102) contre la forme reconfigurable (112). |
