Quality tooling is a fundamental requirement for the manufacture of composite parts. This is due to the fact that every step in the composite part manufacturing process must be tightly controlled to ensure superior material properties and predictable performance in the final product.
This program explores the wide variety of materials used to create composite tooling, including: - Glass Reinforced Polyester/Vinyl-Ester Laminated Tooling - Carbon/Glass Fiber Reinforced Epoxy/Bismaleimide Laminated Tooling - Invar - Invar Coated Carbon Fiber Reinforced Tooling - Steel
The different types of composite manufacturing support tools are also featured, including: - Ply & core kit-cutting templates - Ply & core locator templates - Trim fixtures - Drill jigs & fixtures - Tooling supports - Transportation & handling features
