  • Patent number: 10730248
    Abstract: A method for producing a component from a fiber-composite material, wherein a plurality of fiber-tape pieces, which each comprise a thermoplastic fiber-tape piece matrix with fiber-tape-piece fibers embedded therein, are provided, the fiber-tape pieces are picked up in the solid state and arranged so as to form a fiber-tape pattern, a backing layer, which comprises a thermoplastic backing-layer matrix with backing-layer fibers embedded therein, is provided and heated such that the backing-layer matrix softens or melts, a preform is formed from the backing layer and the fiber-tape pattern in that the fiber-tape pattern is applied in the solid state to the heated backing layer and is heated thereby so that the fiber-tape-piece matrices soften or melt such that the preform is in a deformable state in which both the backing-layer matrix and the fiber-tape-piece matrices have been softened or melted, the preform in the deformable state is deformed.
