Effect of autoclave process on the quality of thermoplastic composite truncated cones manufactured using automated fiber placement technique

In order to investigate the effect of autoclave process on the stiffness properties of thermoplastic composite truncated cones made by automated fiber placement technique (AFP), two short truncated cones were made out of advanced thermoplastic composite material (carbon fiber/PEEK). Then, the trunca...
