Process and forming tool for the production of essentially shell-shaped fibre-reinforced plastic parts

摘要

The tool has an upper die (2) segmented into shaping segments (5) that are brought into the shaping engagement with a material blank (4) in segments or in groups of segments. The tool receives the blank and enters into a shaping engagement with the blank that is made of fibrous material. A portion of the shaping segments is arranged in rings that extend along an edge (4a) of the blank. A carrier part (9) is moveable towards the blank, where the shaping segments are arranged on the carrier part. The segments are displaced relative to the carrier part against a spring force. An independent claim is also included for a method for producing a shell-shaped fiber-reinforced plastic part.
