If you're looking to implement automated processes into your existing composite manufacturing activities this course will give you the knowledge you need to explore and assess techniques to take your production to the next level.
Historically, the production of composites has been very much driven by manual processes and some automation techniques are still not yet fully exploited by manufacturers. An understanding of the features & benefits of automation -vs- digital is essential and there are also practical tooling considerations to be made when using an automated process.
Automation can unlock great leaps in productions times and abilities.
In this course we'll look at common manufacturing methods and the technologies currently available to automate them.
We'll also look at some specific composite deposition technologies.
What we'll cover:
- Automation vs Digital
- Automated technologies
- The key technologies used in composites
- Automated systems/lines
- Key deposition technologies:
- AFP/ATL
- Filament Winding
- Braiding
- Pick & Place
- Tooling considerations for automation
