METHOD OF FORMING A COMPOSITE ARTICLE

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of forming an article on a tool, the tool having one longitudinal direction and one transversal direction, wherein the method comprises the steps of: -arranging a stack (22) of plies (23) comprising fibres, so that when positioned on the tool (21) the ply (24) arranged closest to the tool (21) and the ply (25) arranged furthest away from the tool (21) have the fibres substantially orthogonal (3) to the longitudinal direction (L) of the tool,and arranging at least one ply having the fibres substantially in the same direction (2) as the longitudinal direction (L) of the tool(21) between the plies having fibres substantially orthogonal (3) to the longitudinal direction of the tool (21), -conforming the stack to the tool with a forming medium; and -removing the article from the tool. The present invention also relates to an article produced according to the method.
