  • Patent number: 8074692
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process and tooling for the lining of molds for curved pieces, the process comprising the application of a lining (15) of width A2 on the mold (3) in several successive passes, exerting pressure thereon so that it adapts to the curvature of the piece, and the number of passes being the minimum required so that the width A2 of the tape (15) allows achieving such adaptation, and the tooling comprising a drum (25) for applying the lining (15), a means of attaching its end to the mold (3) at the beginning of each pass, a conical roller (25), to exert pressure on the lining (15) uniformly along its entire width, and means (26, 29) for its movement through side guides (27, 28) arranged on the mold (3) parallel to the curved lines (5, 7) demarcating the piece.

  • Publication number: 20100252180
    Abstract: This invention relates to a process for manufacturing a piece of composite material made with a polymer resin and fiber reinforcement from at least two subcomponents comprising the following steps: a) providing the first subcomponent partially cured in a curing cycle in an autoclave at a maximum temperature T1, comprised between the resin gelling temperature GT and the resin curing temperature CT, applied for a predetermined time PT1 such that the exothermal component is released from the first subcomponent in a degree exceeding 50%; b) providing the second subcomponent in a fresh or cured state; c) assembling the two subcomponents and then joining them to one another in a curing cycle in an autoclave at a maximum temperature T2 comprised between 90% and 100% of the resin curing temperature CT, applied for a predetermined time PT2.
