Résumé : |
Trimarine is a project management company that was founded in 1995 to develop weight-optimised solutions for marine applications. The company specialises in the process engineering, construction systems design and fit-out of racing and high-performance cruising yachts using advances composites. |
Note de contenu : |
- BUILDING CONSTRAINTS OF MARINE ADVANCED.
- MATERIAL AND PROCESS CHOICES : Prepreg carbon vs. dry fibre (infusion and wet-preg) - Carbon fibres - Weave and UD styles/weights - Styrene acrylonitrile (SAN) core materials - Honeycomb : Al, Nomex, Kevlar - Release agents - Vacuum ancillaries and disposables - Oven-cured processes - Assembly ans secondary bonding.
- SKILL REQUIRED : Advanced composites require a skilled workforced.
- YARD EQUIPMENT / TIME CONSTRAINTS / TIME/COST CONSTRAINTS.
- PROCESSING ELEMENTS : Vacuum vs. autoclave - Debulking practices - Prepreg debulking - lx layer at a time vs. multiple layers - Scaffolding solutions. Access to work surfaces - Model and tooling construction - Curing oven requirements.
- IMPORTANT PROCESS ISSUES : Core thermoforming - Cutting and curing PVC foam - Precut core panel kits - Honeycomb cores and moisture - Planning and workforce organisation - Assembling sequence ans assembling jigs / Construction procedures - Weight controls - NDT control - Other testing methods used during and post production.
- RULES AND OTHER LIMITATIONS.
- CRITICAL ISSUES : Non-autoclave cure of large sandwich structures - Foam core stability. |
