Composites Braiding New Process: Composites Braiding Design: Simulate the Braiding Process
Braiding is a composites production process involving the entwining
of composites fibers using a customized looming machine.
- A KEY technology for low cost high volume parts.
Predict the continuous variability of fiber angles, coverage and
material thicknesses around the cross section and along the part for
better mandrel shape generation and more accurate results.
Seamless link to calculation and manufacturing tools to provide
an integrated and efficient process.
Optimization of the braiding parameters along the component
to achieve improved fiber angles to meet mechanical requirements
at minimum cost
