Intimate contact development for automated fiber placement of thermoplastic composites

The consolidation step in the automated fiber Placement (AFP) of thermoplastic composites is crucial for development of interlaminar bonding strength. Two mechanisms contribute to the interlaminar bond strength development in the interface between the incoming tow and the substrate: (a) the developm...
