  • Preforming system and method
    Patent number: 12090713
    Abstract: A preforming system for automated sequential laying of plies, in particular fiber reinforced plies, at a desired location with a preselected attitude to preform a composite structure, comprising at least one buffer provided with two or more carriers, a controller, a placement robot provided with a ply manipulating part, and a substrate, wherein each carrier is arranged to carry at least one presorted ply, wherein the controller keeps track of a position, type and sequential order of the at least one presorted ply per carrier, and wherein the controller further controls the placement robot to manipulate and transport at least one ply by means of the ply manipulating part from a selected carrier of the two or more carriers to the substrate and to place the at least one ply at the desired location with the preselected attitude.
