  • Detection, monitoring, and management of gas presence, gas flow and gas leaks in composites manufacturing
    Patent number: 11097496
    Abstract: Porosity causing gas-based defects are detected, located, identified, and/or characterized by the use of defect information generated from gas flow data corresponding to gas flow characteristics measured by one or more sensors on a composite part processing piece such as a mould or membrane used during a composite manufacturing process. The defect information is generated using techniques including one or more of profiling the gas flow data, fingerprinting, line leak detection, analytical triangulation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 14, 2017
    Date of Patent: August 24, 2021
    Assignee: Convergent Manufacturing
    Inventors: Malcolm David Lane, Anoshiravan Poursartip, Goran Fernlund, Anthony Michael Floyd, David Andrew Van Ee, Morgan Edwin John Hibbert
