Résumé : |
Most users of Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) equipment use the software provided by the machine vendor, which is simply not economical or realistic for manufacturers. This paper presents a universal AFP software program (Autodesk TruFiber) that allows manufacturers to select the best machine for the job. Additionally, case studies are used to expound the optimization of the kinematics parameters of the AFP process. |
