Airframe of A350 of guest of one built on stilts has 8000 many thermoplastic answer material makes, appearance the role with each different, different measurement piece with bracket. The measure that 787 airframe place uses Boeing exceeds 8000. The horn of so huge amount piece work with the production of bracket, assume by supplier of figure of a few machine entirely, will appear a lot of difficult problem. The one part of airframe of empty guest A350 is thermoplastic answer ability part piece, amount to Er by the special Daher(austral France) make. Recently " composite material world " more detailed reported Daher(amounts to Er) make, research and development and company position, and establishment, equipment. ” of plane of wide system of long range of Shang Fei “ and B787 and A350 belong to the plane of same amount level. No matter airframe uses hot firm,still be thermoplastic answer material is made, but airframe is in-house horn of thousands of join piece, should use thermoplastic answer material is made. See Shangfei announces machine figure supplier only up to now. Horn of this thousands of join piece assume by these a few suppliers entirely whether, have arrangement additionally still?

Different land research and development and production drove OOA material of hot solid sex, thermoplastic plastic, solder, reclaim and the development of digital technology, with quickly treatment and attestation, make the lighter, composite material part that can last more.

Amount to Er (Daher) Sha Ping (the Shap'in technology center of Daher of Shap'in) technology center includes an administration building (left) building of He Yidong technology (right) , with factory of composite material spare parts (did not show) be located in same position. Pursue on: Amount to Er (Daher) professional knowledge is covered not only thermoplastic composite material, still cover material of hot solid sex, be like the ATR 72 plane that machining in all solidify is compositive joist wing envelope place is shown.

Daher (France Ollie) it is the one class supplier with aerospace distinctive industry, it is banner aviation structure manufacturer not only, also be plane production business and service provider, include in-house installation and content to flow. Daher held water 1863, business pervades 20 countries, its year of income of 1.5 billion euro is medium 90% come from aerospace. This company began to make an aircraft 1911, produce TBM and propeller-driven aircraft of turbine of Kodiak odd engine at present, rolled out newest TBM 960 and Kodiak900 2022.

Daher still has a content to shed a company, design and carry out the system that includes to carry and be installed inside and service, basically mix in order to support in the production of aerospace and other high-tech industry operation.

Graph 1. Structure of ATR large composite material, innovate. Daher has composite material experience of 20 years, in production and archetypal design large construction and field of new composite material technology are having long history, include thermoplastic composite material (TPC) with stabilizer (HTP) of the structure solder.

In addition, daher is famous 0, package supplier, mix for plane wing, airframe, landing gear advance device to offer complex metal and composite material package. It has 20 old experience in composite material respect, be in at buying empty settle or live in a strange place 2009 France Bugenaisi's workshop, become thermoplastic the inchoate leader of composite material. To 2015, the — of factory of composite material spare parts of Daher—Be located in south special outskirts emperor Ai Ni is held high - heart - Gelandelie's street on the road —— by accepted for France the first “ did not come to a factory”, because its automation workstation is empty guest A350,produce TPC part piece. However, if the graph is shown 1 times, structure of large composite material is accepted all the time since Daher is long-term, and new technology and innovation. 2021, " composite material world " the compose of alar ” project of the “ tomorrow that is airbus company about OOA the later Liang dynasty and TPC of thick, Gao Zaihe the article of costal region.

Be in likewise 2021, daher rolled out 3 innovation center: The organization that Log'in affects with reducing an environment works, fly'in is advanced with be being used at mixture motivation of future and low carbon plane, shap'in in order to quicken the innovation of structure of composite material aviation. Shap'in technology center borders the plant of complex structure of Saint-Aignan De Grandlieu of Daher. Daher 2021 of no less than year press release and " air and universe " an article place 2022 narrates the magazine, the design of this technology center aims assemble skill and resource, accelerate innovation the design throws production, have bigger flexibility.

" composite material world " suffer invite the SaintAignan installation that saw Daher, discuss them how to help implementation its newest aviation decarbonization 5 years of strategies, include its oneself operation and client operation.

Sha Ping (Shap’in) center of science and technology

" composite material world " the tourist guide that compiles personnel is Michael Hugon, the intellectual property manager of Daher. His explanation says, sha Ping (Shap’in) the concept comes from this company to be opposite after new coronal is pneumonic of its industry footmark recombine. He explains: “ our need establishs an outstanding center, develop the composite material technology of innovation, make the environmental protection product tomorrow becomes a possibility. ”. We had seen “ , having to already the project has production this locality ecosystem again is the key of solution of efficient development composite material. Sha Ping (Shap ’in) wish scene it is amalgamative our group, implementation designs branch of the office, craft, material branch and the synergism between production branch, be worth a product with developing new high price quickly. ”

“ because this, we decide in emperor Ai Ni holds a factory high the development around makes the same score technical center dene, such we can be entered here south special ecosystem, include one of our biggest clients airbus company, also include the partner such as center of technology of IRT Jules Verne, airbus and Technocus Composites, include the tissue of research and development such as Cetim among them, and the learning such as UIMM and Jules V / groom central dust favour creates an institute, ”Hugon continues say.

Sha Ping (Shap’in) center of science and technology was enabled in December 2022, by administrative building and technical building composition. Hugon says: There are branch of research and development, project team, material and technology group and advanced production in “ administration building project. ”. “ still has the administrative group that supports a gender, include to purchase with quality, such we can be mixed in technical center everything what place obtains to need in the factory. The from east to west that we develop here can be carried out in any factories of Daher, for instance Tarbes, Tanger or Nogales. ” for example, the carbon fiber of production of helicopter of empty guest H160 that Daher is French tower Bei Si enhances polymer (CFRP) end bridge and contain path scull, it is Mexico spacer of CFRP of production of LEAP 1C engine. Hugon continues say: “ Sha Ping (Shap ’in) all tools that technical building accommodated place of our research and development to need, archetypal design undertakes below the circumstance that makes we can stop the production adjoining in bos, efficiency is accordingly taller ” .

Graph 2. Make the same score technical building dene. Building of sanded smooth technology the manufacturing hall of 1600 square metre begins from a prototype and exhibition hall of development spare parts, system of treatment of numerical control of Breton Matrix E1 and other treatment room, spray booth and solidify lab are from the back. Return left, the lab that close includes clean room, material test and token and use at bore of acoustics face plate and coordinate to measure machine (CMM-coordinate Measuring Machine) another area of the examination (did not show piece) .

Reveal office, reclaim TPC flotsam

We leave administrative mansion through corridor, pass next reveal implement the exhibition hall of the spare parts enters technical building (graph 2) . In a project of IRT Jules Verne, the Victrex company that use carbon fiber strengthens (Cleveleys, lancashire, england) AE250 LMPAEK is one-way (UD) beforehand the automatic fiber that dip takes is placed (AFP) with autoclave outside (OOA) solid knot, made very thick (196) TPC engine rack.

The Rolls-Royce that the diameter is 3.56 meters is around (London, england) UltraFan engine demonstrates the CF/LMPAEK of machine to enter gas clapboard. It is use 3D AFP and Toray Advanced Composites (TAC, nijverdal, netherlands) TC1225 beforehand the autoclave solid knot of dip adhesive plaster is made, card palpability replaces metal and hot solid sex with TPC (TS-thermoset) composite material component, and the ability that Daher makes this kind of large part that has double curvature. Use conspicuous family name still showed in the graph (city of Stanford heart of administrative division of division of surname of Hexcel- Kang Nie, the United States) CF/8552 annulus oxygen beforehand the composite material pillar of mould pressing TS that dip belt becomes with be being made with short staple form continuously board, revealed high speed to lead the ability of net figure craft.

The professional knowledge that Daher shapes 2 times in TPC spare parts and notes model respect reflects the zoology in plane of paddle of this TBM snail to demonstrate helm footplate to go up, this footplate uses the CF/PPS that reclaims from inside producing waste material to be made (left) , and what make with TPRC of partner of research and development and IRT Jules Verne is other demonstrate implement (in, right)

The zoology that used reclaiming CF/PPS material to make aircraft of TBM snail paddle demonstrates helm footplate. Hugon says: “ produces waste material by mincing, mix afresh, next with note model to be used together, production gives the part that has intricate geometry figure, include curvature and costal region. ”. This footplate reduced the cost of 75% , obtained attestation 2021. Another piece of watch revealed two punch and the CF/PEKK part that shape 2 times, one is with joint development of research center of ThermoPlastic composite material, another is IRT Jules Verne. In this area rear, collected part of adjacent factory A350 piece the leftover material —— of the framework of the preform of 2D of cut of —— of many TPC flotsam that produces with bracket and 3D spare parts experiments to reclaim mediumly with showing spare parts and technology use.

Machine large part

System of a robot was held with left area besides the exhibition hall, with passenger compartment of Yu Zaihang empty engine bore of the high speed on acoustics face plate. This machine will by Gebe2 (French MoNtaigu Vendée) offer, still will deploy the main shaft that is used at burnish and nap and ultrasonic cut. Innovalia Metrology (Spanish Álava) M3MH coordinate is measured machine in also be being installed, with the size control of Yu Yuan spare parts. Produce the hall in open mode advocate on the passageway, installed numerical control of a large Breton Materix E1 to process a system (Castello Di Godego, italy) (graph 3) .

Sebastian Louvel of expert of Shap ’in machining explains: “ is here, we developed tool of the craft parameter of spare parts of thicker composite material, cutting and cutting condition. ”. We have “ compositive facilities will measure all crucial parameter, be like speed, power, vibration and cutting force, this makes we can improve our technology. We can undertake machining to the spare parts, assess quality, rise its correlation next, in order to know the effect of mechanical to the spare parts function. ”

Graph 3. Digital machining center. Daher is compositive the number of parameter is measured, the accurate treatment that is thick TPC spare parts developed new one-way method

Louvel revealed a few sample that be being machined and check, include the engine rack part with 35 large millimeter and share of likewise large horny form TPC. We are using “ these parts come test and verify our treatment precision, he explains ” . The production of “ and smaller part is compared, we hope to raise precision, but also hope to make craft more efficient, dovisher. For example, our current production treatment needs 10-11 line working procedure. If where,we are being improved maintain high accuracy and high quality while one-time treatment this spare parts. ”

This kind of efficiency still includes the theme such as cooling fluid. Louvel points out: We are studying “ the design of cutting tool, consider to cutting undertakes below the case that how using cooling fluid, because use cooling fluid when cut the advancement that bits and treatment flotsam are reclaiming travel is clean. ”. However, it is not easy to undertake machining below the circumstance that does not have cooling fluid. The structure with very thick to these “ , you are returned must rapid purify is drossy, solve the high temperature problem of generation. He raised ” Mapal (German Alan) the made way that is used at these thick TPC spare partses by broach, if where,this company also is considering to do not have composite material of the treatment below the circumstance of refrigerant.

In this area, still have a 2.5 meters long bridge, the full measure TPC that comes from TRAMPOLINE project turns round box, in be being placed in the metal to machine clamping apparatus. Hugon points out: It is OK that we return “ the fixture that interiorly makes him for prototype and tool, this makes our development rate rapidder. ” is a little machining room besides this area, a small spray booth that wipes adhesive and puddle with Yu Tu is on the side.

Regard TRAMPOLINE project and fire as the one part of the test, to soldering in a small way TPC twists box (coping) have a test (bottom) the one share that plans as the CARAC TP of Daher.

Complete data token, CARAC TP

We cross corridor to return an area that close, material token lab is inside. What there is to be used at making sample here is small-sized add hot press to be used at adjusting with a few the constant temperature room of sample. Among them of a small size solder the component that twist box is put on a piece of table, above connective sensor. We had checked “ it can rupture, ”Hugon says. We cross another door, enter the share of adjacent of a photograph of the lab, there are a few dynamic scannings to measure hot law and station of hot serious analysis over there. Hugon says: We can monitor “ thermoplastic the condition of material changes, transform to melt, vitrification from entropy and crystallize. We are useful still flow at what viscosity analyses change appearance. We are developing our database, behavior of will basic material and time and temperature and the degradation that expose the temperature in vitrification change above to fall are relevant couplet. ”

Regard the CARAC TP of Daher as the one part of the project, this kind of much work has been finished, this project finished the test pyramid of attestation of structure of the TPC in high temperature engine and wing application not only, still finished model of material science, number and design method, in order to define the optimal parameter of the craft such as AFP, the punch of every kinds of material and spare parts and solder. This project has proved, the high-powered TPC material such as PEEK, PEKK and LMPAEK is mixed in high temperature as same as epoxy resin composite material degradation question won't appear below condition of damp and hot. However, daher also thinks will its and use composite material of resinous of TS of solidify of new-style and fast OOA to undertake comparative.

Hugon says: “ our hope stops to use traditional cookbook to have culinary art merely, develop the recipe that is based on physics and data however, in order to realize new composite material application. ”“ says with its we are mixed in TPC punch solder the respect is capable, we can say we have the knowledge that the institute has stuff and develops a hardware from A to Z now. We can choose right stuff, right technology and correct parameter, we can undertake be designinged production an analysis to the spare parts, drive its attestation, the behaves it to be us client in knowing it is using an environment finally saved time and money. ”

Graph 3. Material checks lab Daher to developing his TS and TPC material database in its material lab, material science and technical data and spare parts function relevant couplet.

The other one aspect of the matter of the lab checks in material, electron microscope of a number is located opposite the metallograph example of polishing. We also have “ all polish and sample preparation machine, ”Hugon points out. Here has to make law of chemically clear up measures the station of fiber content, still have two areas stretchy plan ZwickRoell (German Wu Ermu) the hot test that machine —— uses at 150 1000 Newton, another can of 250 1000 Newton cold / hot test.

Graph 3. Solidify center. The solidify center of Daher can be mixed inside autoclave quite the solid bear case outside autoclave.

Clean room, solidify, solder

Check the clean room that 130 square metre are on the side of the lab, this is end of building of science and technology is the last close area. We cross a door to be walked out of, see outside beforehand dip makings is refrigerant ark. Return inside, the autoclave with long rice of a ×4.5 of 2 meters of diameters and two oven are on clean room. The first by Sat Thermique (French Mei Li) offer, temperature is as high as 400°C, use at integrated TPC spare parts, the 2nd by France Etuves (France Qieerlaisi) offer, use at TS composite material spare parts. Hugon says: “ we can obtain perfect solid knot condition in autoclave, issue its and us the capacity that has originallying writtening guarantee to undertake comparative in the circumstance that does not have autoclave next. ”. “ the craft that we evaluate different material and spare parts configuration with it. ”

Be in one of evaluated technology are TPC component to solder. Hugon says: We have “ one solder smally the stage will make a test. ”, “ but reveal mediumly to TRAMPOLINE project, we enquired our partner and subsidiary KVE Composites, have robot induction to solder setting and professional knowledge, can undertake the structure solders. We and they are designed jointly spare parts and assemble a process, the design with challenging us and solder technology. This kind of method raised the maturity of spare parts and process collaterally. We make component and send its KVE next. They solder they send package, so that we check to be analysed with design of test and verify and stress, make our design manual mature. ”

Hugon explanation says, KVE Composites remains independence as provider of a technology, “ but our collaboration makes solder technology and technical application mature at the same time. ”

The bypass pipe inside general benefit engine (IBD- Inner Barrel Duct) CMM examination.

Composite material factory

We leave Sha Ping (Shap’in) technical center, cross a parking lot, along its northeast direction is entered amount to Er (Daher) manufacturing plant (graph 4) . A small reception area showed engine of Pu Hui 812/814/815 inside bypass pipe. Composite material application of TS of other high temperature includes passenger compartment of engine of LEAP 1B aviation pillar board and canister of engine of type of an organic whole, of empty guest A320 and A350 jet-propelled plane hind 2 level structure, and empty guest, Boeing and the room of APU pressure boost that amount to machine of official business of all alone falcon. Daher still is A350 (be located in Dabeisi) make advocate landing gear port, wing of the side outside be being made for ATR72 turbine propeller-driven aircraft and alar bridge, make stabilizer to amount to jet aircraft of series of 900/2000 of all alone falcon (HTP) face plate, for bay shedding G700 official machine makes alula, and for A380 central ala box makes cross bar. Although A380 already stop production, but the ability that this component showed Daher: 7 meters long, by 11 components composition, weigh 60 kilograms, use colophony to deliver moulding (RTM) make.

Er is amounted to especially south the layout of composite material factory

Graph 4. Composite material produces TS and TP. This piece of view that sees from clean room upper part (right graph) showed TPC produces section, the A350 horn of the A400M floor that includes top left corner, center piece and the material on the right side of and 2D preform operation.

What this establishment makes is thermoplastic the spare parts includes A350 airframe part piece the cockpit floor that carries with A400M for military use. Use data includes to contain the PPS of carbon fiber fabric, and use as the vitreous fabric of separator, in order to prevent role piece couple happens to corrode when be being contacted with aluminium. Daher still applied such as be struck by lightning to protect the data of net and so on. This company bought much from TAC thermoplastic composite material, be like 3.6 meters long Cetex organic sheet, but also interiorly produces a few material.

Hugon says: “ our interiorly makes CF/PEEK UD face plate for A400M cockpit floor. ” . We returned “ to prepare a few data for ATR wing wainscot, these wainscot are to use generation to spread those who take a mechanism to build automatically, need general beforehand dip is taken and prefab Cheng Mou plants the patch format. He summarized ” to produce the basic technology chain of the workshop:

• TS composite material: Cut of raw material, layer, fold a layer (manual, AFP, ATL) , autoclave / examination of oven, nap, dimension and nondestructive detect (NDT) , paint and assemble finally.
• TPC: Raw material board, cut 2D preform, punch and clip 3D spare parts, quality is controlled (ultrasonic detects (UT) C scanning canister / robot ejector workstation) with finish machining.

A350 horn piece production

This kind of production held the much of TPC building. Be in most right, check entered Cetex plate, use Flow Waterjet next (Kent, washing. , u.S. ) or Mécanumeric (Albi, france) Waterjet cut becomes 2D semifinished product, place its dry in frame, trim 6-10 piece board by every batches of material next. Cut flotsam is sent toward center of sanded smooth technology. Next, lade board group in the storehouse, storehouse general undertakes handling through workstation of two automatic punch (graph 5) , every punch workstation deploys two FANUC the much axis robot, infra-red heat that is used at warm-up blank and the Pinette Emidecau Industries55 that are pressed into 3D spare parts with Yu Chong ton with 75 tons of press. Still have 4 compressor additionally, include a compressor of 120 tons research and development and a 1000 tons large construction compressor.

A350 TPC horn piece punch

AFP general TPC beforehand dip belt is folded put on film of drawing of patterns of Thermalimide high temperature.

Graph 5. Horn of big batch TPC piece production. The every automation workstation that shows above uses two robots (yellow) . Among them one is in left next horn, preform and spare parts move back and forth in the furnace of blue frame warm-up in right and the punch of intermediate setting. Another (the central setting at the back of compressor) every 10-15 the spare parts changes tool

Be close to when us among them when workstation of a punch, hugon points out, a robot manages a tool, and another robot is mixed in the to load in whole warm-up and punch process uninstall a tool. “ tool manages the key that is production of this kind of large-scale batch, he explains ” . “ tool must every 10 change to 15 spare partses. Accordingly, old tool is demolished below the circumstance that the challenge depends on stopping a process, come in new tool changeover. ”Preform is installed beforehand in by Airtech International (the court of a feudal ruler of go smoothly of American California city pauses beach) film of made drawing of patterns of high temperature Thermalimide secures device to go up.

View the action of this workstation, the tool carries robot and its tool to be at the back of compressor. This a side of compressor is a robot, it is mixed in data of the circulation in workstation spare parts. It moves through the measure of a group of elaborate design, in order to marry the periodic time of workstation. It from material / the clamping apparatus that the capture on the table of finished product window assembled 2D semifinished product beforehand; Put laded fixed unit among them in furnace of a warm-up; Take out finished product part from inside press, place its in material / on spare parts watch; Take another to contain the clamping apparatus that installs blank beforehand, put its into oven of the 2nd IR; Take out the preform with good warm-up to put its into press. Its every 3-5 minute duplicate this sequence, specific time depends on made part piece or bracket. Hugon says: “ oven is OK warm-up arrives 200°C. ”. “ is in punch process, the temperature of warm-up preform and compressor is consistent, what need in order to run place of every sort spare parts is thermoplastic matrix crystallization is spent. ”Online treatment is in Belotti (Italian Suisio) FLA 3018 high speed finishs on machine tool of 5 axes numerical control. Use Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence next (HMI, stockholm, sweden) CMM system undertakes to the spare parts dimension precision scans. In 3 CMS Industries (Zogno, italy) in machining workstation one therein complete further treatment, the workstation of UT of automatic C scanning that heads water tank is used to check a part later. Of photograph adjacent those who contain sprinkler of odd side UT is perpendicular and automatic lie between a flat that is used at checking A400M cockpit floor and cut preform.

Attention, the major nondestructive that mixes greatly detects oneself develop device. Hugon explains: “ once we had nondestructive to detect the concept of workstation, we can contact compositive dealer. ”. “ for example, we and PEI cooperate, for plane of paddle of snail of wainscot of the ATR wing wainscot and alar bridge, HTP that amount to all alone, IBD spare parts of spare parts and large research and development offerred a large number of nondestructive to detect workstation. This nondestructive detects there is a machine near area, wipe adhesive and fastener with Yu Tu, in order to assemble many A350 part piece.

Assemble floor board of A400M TPC cockpit.

What produce a division in TPC is left rear, assemble the cockpit floor board of A400M. The first batch this is airbus company development thermoplastic one of composite material, can restrospect to about 2005, its use UD CF/PEEK beforehand dip belt. Hugon says: “ our interiorly does all businesses: The shop is put, consolidate face plate, cut and a few punch. ” . “ punch spare parts is the largest part on the floor, also be the key of stiffness. Next all things are assembled with rivet, you can see the spare parts is laded in this large clamping apparatus, help our bore and finish assemble. ”

Turn back when us when arriving before the building, we display the digital screen that produces crucial performance index through. Hugon explains: “The production project system that this is us displays screen, we last here monitoring production, the flow that manages every job in order to help and the each pace of all sorts of flow. ” . “ is in each a little bit to go up, technical personnel can scan a form code of every kinds of material, preform or stamping workpiece. Next, these form code can enter a system, such we can see where it is, when be laded, and we are in each batches of products and the manufacturing place with only work. If have a problem, we can see, the technical group that invites us tries hard to solve. ” . Accordingly, important is, they had joined, data takes action as soon as possible, any problems that solve a likelihood to appear. This results from ODDICEA-Operatio of project of research and developmentNal Digitalization For DatabaSed And Inter-CoNnected Efficient Activities (the database is changed and the operation of efficient activity digitlizes interconnection) , this is factory and Sha Ping (Shap’in) between the group another example of synergism. ”

The machine of ATR72 wing envelope is machined.

Composite material produces TS

Before we return a factory, facing the back wall of the factory. Pool of nap of water of gush of a 3D is between TPC and TS production division, its are left the large and clean room that is 3600 square metre, deployed super- pressure control in order to prevent contaminant and temperature and humidity. In our left, opposite of clean room, it is a canister pressing heat of 4 meters of 21 meters long, diameters. There is a big metal car that takes wheel in front, be similar to a short and smooth railcar (graph 6) . Hugon says: We install “ two, the wainscot of 1.2×8.5 rice wing with solidify ATR 72 and 0.4×8.5 Miyi bridge. ”

There are 4 ovens besides autoclave: An oven of 3×6 rice 400°C that comes from French Etuve is used at TPC, oven of 3 2.5×2.5 rice is used at solidify RTM spare parts. The solidify spare parts that this area was full of preparation to have machine treatment and the machine that prepare to undertake be checkinged finally machine a spare parts. A treatment makes a station, use at clip and bore undertaking to finished part after solidify fill corner. We are right-handed, go at the back of the building forward. Left is to be used at place and assembling ATR ala bridge and joist the tool that strengthens wing wainscot. It is on the side of these tools, it is Elmetherm (France Shengaowente) infra-red heat is diaphragmatic shape (HDF-hot Drape Forming) station, use at be opposite ATR wing joist shape beforehand undertake degum is mixed shape. Right is ATL and AFP workstation, they are ATR wing envelope, joist He Yiliang and other part found a pressing plate.

The ATL shop of ATR72 wing envelope puts the work.

Graph 6. ATR wing. Daher uses his to heat up drape figuration (HDF) station (coping) in bridge of ATR 72 ala shape beforehand a hot pressing that grows in 20 meters is absorption drawing of patterns undertakes to its before solidify (the 2nd piece of image) , canister of this high pressure also is used at production in all the joist of solidify envelope of wing of aggrandizement ATR 72 (bottom) .

Hugon explanation says, business of hardware of ATR 72 wing came over from airbus company move 2012. Wing envelope folds a layer is use Brisard Group (French Capdenac) the “BMO” brand machine that in 20 centuries 90 time develop makes. These are in front mentioned machine, prefab beforehand dip is taken and the patch is gone to by to load beforehand in dip belt box, the ATL shop that goes up in frame by installation next puts a head to use. Original design is this system use 25-150 millimeter is wide beforehand dip adhesive plaster, among them dark beforehand dip takes a box to be able to accommodate 300 meters to grow beforehand dip belt.

These ATL workstation make ATR wing envelope not only, still make C form shape beforehand, these shape beforehand a will collective solidify in order to form compositive joist board of put more energy into. These prefabricated component are placed to be in side by side by convert in assembling a tool, flange goes all out neat form joist. Put a colophony come the small triangle clearance among fill. Will assemble tool trice with the gantry crane next and convert, with joist shape beforehand assemble ATL wing envelope to go up. Next envelope joist package vacuum bagging is collective in autoclave solidify.

BMO beforehand the another side that dip takes laid workstation is induction of KVE composite material solders station (graph 7) . “ is here, we can found the standardization that is used at the test to solder sample, ”Hugon says. “ this is a simple setting, and very busy. It is one comes from Fives Liné on ” corridor (French Paris) ATL machine, use at bridge of ala of ATR of laid U form. Before vacuum bagging and autoclave solidify, these fold a layer to be in heat is diaphragmatic shape (HDF) in the station by squeezing ramming.

A room that close is on the side of this workstation, there is Keliaoli inside composite material company (French Quebec) machine of C1 robot AFP. Hugon says: “C1 can originally with heat quality beforehand dip makings, dry fiber or thermoplastic beforehand dip makings belt is used together. ” . “ is mixed to TPC dry fiber, we are right TS beforehand dip makings use laser heats and IR heats. C1 can bring to bear on at the same time at most 6 beforehand dip belt, and can become independent cut every beforehand dip belt. We can use tool carrier general beforehand dip belt brings to bear on to rotate on the tool, also can place go up in stage of smooth drawing of patterns. Current, we use this C1 machine to have research and development only, but it 100% be in take up condition. ”

Graph 7. KVE INDUCT solders and Keliaoli C1 AFP workstation. Use at research and development at present, these two workstation in Daher production plant mature in its TPC structure still be taken up in order to offer future when production.

We go advocate passageway, face wing wainscot and knock off of alar bridge shop to provide again, turn right next, go at the back of the building forward. Heat up leftly in us diaphragmatic shape (HDF) at the back of the station, it is to produce BMO workstation place to use beforehand the automation machine that dip brings. Besides, still IBD produces a division, be in over there manual laid all sorts of spare partses. This area still has a 3D that is used at IBD spare parts to control a station, include to be used at the HMI Advantage system that large part CMM examines.

Right is to use the A350 that RTM makes to present gas opening. Besides, the nap workstation that still one is used at these spare partses and a big nondestructive detect area. Hugon points out, the spare parts uses large C full water canister to undertake checking above all. If defined attention area, put the part on the table of this area, technical personnel undertakes local A scans in order to undertake more detailed assessment. Next, we passed the production that the triangular commutate of ATR plane overspreads, also use RTM creates this commutate fish trap. Hugon points out, this is a quite simple part, because we see technical personnel will be dry,fiber layer is put into the tool.

The preparation that the last area that we visit includes to paint works, and the face is acted the role of and ship. When we return the entrance, hugon points to those who give a plant to produce can be about 80% . What can you produce when business grows? We had been in “ reorder and compact, vacate more space in order to improve efficiency, he is pointing to ” the northeast horn say on the side of administrative office. “ still has additional land here, if need, we can add more factory spaces over. ”

Of decarbonization, engine and wing light quantify, accelerate manufacturing rate

Hugon says, daher is right of these two establishment wish scene be, their joint efforts, composite material reachs breakthrough TPC and TS its but durative bounds, include to reclaim and reduce the sources of energy to use. We think “ become best, ” his complement. “ now, everybody is talking about decarbonization, but we are in 15 years many before begin to pay close attention to this, devote oneself to to design and produce lighter plane construction, this remains one of optimal meanses that reduce carbon to discharge. This is our gene, we continue to challenge structural carrying capacity, produce bigger effect with reducing weight respect. This also is the account that we win a victory hard. ”This also is why we are studying wing structure, cooperate with engine manufacturer, in order to increase engine interior and the composite material all round. ”

Thermoplastic soldering is another kind of method that will reduce weight through eliminating fastener of thousands of metal. It still accelerated manufacturing rate, disappear supplies a lot of measure in catenary and craft catenary besides component. Pascal Laguerre of officer of Daher chief technology points out: We believe “ , it is to one paragraph general for the 5 new-style A320 planes to the implementation inside 8 years, thermoplastic composite material will change game regulation, can improve productivity not only, still can realize optimal cost and weight. ”

Dominique Bailly of vice-president of Daher research and development indicates approval to this, but additional line, the main challenge that “ aviation industry faces is to increase decarbonization and reduce environmental effect. We the one part that all projects are this job. The zoology that the knowledge of new composite material that we are showing and technology carry in function and limitative aviation affected a respect to gain headway. This is the key of prospective aviation structure, also Daher devotes oneself to. We will continue to hold lead position in extensive technical field, promote innovation, make aviation industry can be accomplished best. ”
