1. A composites lamination system comprising a six-axis positioner and multiple removable heads for applying composite material to a tool, the system comprising:
a gantry and a wrist comprising the six-axis positioner; the gantry having two spaced uprights that support a crossbeam, wherein the uprights and the crossbeam are movable in the X-axis; a workzone for a tool positioned between the two spaced uprights; a movable column supported on the crossbeam, wherein the column is movable relative to the crossbeam in the Y-axis and the Z-axis; a wrist mounted on the column, wherein the wrist rotates around an I-axis parallel to the X-axis, around a J-axis parallel to the Y-axis, and around a K-axis parallel to the Z-axis; and, a replaceable head mounted on the wrist on the end of the K-axis, whereby the gantry and the wrist provide six axis of motion for the replaceable head, and removal of the head from the wrist allows the six axis of motion to remain with the positioner. |
