Quality Analysis of Weld-Line Defects in Carbon Fibre Reinforced Sheet Moulding Compounds by Automated Eddy Current Scanning

Discontinuous fibre reinforced composites enable the manufacture of integrated structural components via the complex flow process of compression moulding. However, such processes can lead to the formation of detrimental weld-lines. Here, the meso-structure of carbon fibre sheet moulding compounds (C...
