Innovative co-consolidation assembly of TPC parts
High performance co-consolidation assembly of a composite part demonstrator for aeronautical structural part with some local continuous fibers reinforcements.The structural part is stamped directly onto the local reinforcements, which have been preconsolidated beforehand. Several local reinforcements have been co-consolidated with the structural part at the same time.
Key Benefits
The use of this innovative composite assembly allows a clear economic gain. There''s no need for the rework phase of conventional assembly. It allows a clear weight saving on the aircraft structure. The impact resistance and its ability to be recycled is also increased by the use of 100% thermoplastic. It allows the functionalization of the structural part, made more complex to create value.
