  • Hybrid tooling for the curing of composite pieces
    Patent number: 8292255
    Abstract: The invention relates to a hybrid tooling (1) for the curing of composite pieces, comprising a support structure (3) made of a metallic material with high thermal diffusivity, a base plate (31) with an identical surface geometry as that of the piece to be cured, made of INVAR 36 or NILO 36, an intermediate structure (21) between the support structure (3) and the base plate (31), with a cell configuration, with the sides of each cell sufficiently lightened so as to facilitate the flow of air under the base plate (31) during the curing cycle, made of INVAR 36 or NILO 36, and means of fixing the intermediate structure (21) to the support structure (3) which allow their free expansion.
