METHOD AND DEVICE FOR LAYING AND DRAPING PORTIONS OF A REINFORCING FIBER STRUCTURE TO PRODUCE A PROFILED PREFORM

摘要

A device for automatically laying and draping a plurality of web-form portions of a dry sheet-like formation, in particular of a multiaxial laid fiber fabric and/or a woven reinforcing fabric to create a profiled preform on a core by repeated laying and draping of the portions in order to produce a reinforcing profile with a composite material. Accordingly at least one portion, is kept in at least one cassette between two roller conveyors ready for laying on the core. As a result of the preferably simultaneous laying of preferably more than one prefabricated portion of the sheet-like formation on the core by means of at least one cassette of the cassette arrangement a profiled preform can be fully automatically laid and draped quickly and with great dimensional accuracy and at the same time with good reproducibility for the production of CRP profiles.
