COMPACT
Roller-based design allows the transfer of large plies with a smaller footprint than other automated deposition systems.
FibreROLL is our scalable twin roller storage and deposition system for dry fibre composite plys. The tool picks and loads carbon fibre plys onto interchangeable storage rollers and delivers automated high rate layup for composites. This is combined with a vison system that monitors ply edges during layup for verification and positional correction.
Example capabilities based on a ply mass of up to 2kg/m2.
