ThermoPlastic composites Research Center (TPRC)’s Post

One of the many innovative topics that TPRC is working on is 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 (𝐀𝐅𝐏), an additive manufacturing technique for composite parts. For the NXTGEN Hightech project, for instance, we focus on rapid characterization of the tape material for high precision AFP. The aim is to create a clear overview of the dominant properties that influence the stability of the manufacturing process, such as geometry variations, surface topology, laser reflection and absorption, and thermal conductivity. The rapid material characterization is useful for the ongoing development of process simulation tools and inline monitoring and controlling solutions.
