<p>A process for continuous, tailored lamination of aligned composite materials in such a way that either pre-formed or precosolidated are made available for subsequent infusion molding or stamping processes, the process comprising the steps of: material placement, consolidation/stabilization, cut and kit, fabrication, and final trim. A tailored blank machine (306) is also described. The blank machine includes a series of material placement heads (606) arranged in a linear or serial fashion along a single placement table, wherein each head lays down a single angle of the prescribed stacking sequence as the conveyer (304) passes under the head at a constant speed wherein the angle is proportional to head traverse rate by conveyor speed.</p> |
