The manual, labour-intensive production process leads to high tolerances and requires high safety and reliability factors. Especially in the case of offshore turbines with current and upcoming blade dimensions, automation will make the blades cost effective, quicker to produce and guarantees a higher quality. Here, we analyse the current blade structure and production processes and present a technical review of the existing automation approaches for the textile build-up process in industry and academia. Thereby we classify these approaches according to the different techniques based on the rotor blade structure parts.

The measured ion viscosity of aged resin was directly converted to a degree-of-cure metric using a resin cure map constructed by correlating cure kinetics and dielectric analysis data. Next, an age-adjusted infusion process map was employed to define a nominal infusion window and to identify key process metrics. Finally, process simulations and flow contour maps were used to validate and refine the process map and to guide adjustment of infusion process parameters based on resin age and part size/geometry. The study describes a pathway to more efficient use of aged resin using in situ process diagnostics, cure map design, and process simulation. The methodology employed to evaluate resin age and to adjust process parameters accordingly can be extended to other composite manufacturing processes, including conventional prepreg processing.

VBO processing can produce defect-free components under ideal processing conditions; however, adverse process conditions (e.g. poor vacuum) commonly encountered in manufacturing environments result in unacceptably high scrap rates, preventing more widespread adoption of such techniques. This work explores how modifications to prepreg format can increase process robustness. A unidirectional (UD) prepreg was produced with a customized, discontinuous resin distribution, henceforth referred to as semipreg. The semipreg exhibited through-thickness permeability orders of magnitude greater than conventional hot-melt VBO prepregs. The semipreg also was less sensitive to variations in process conditions than conventional VBO prepreg. In situ process monitoring allowed observation and identification of two defect formation mechanisms arising during cure of the custom prepreg. Resin feature topography played a critical role in these mechanisms, indicating its importance to the design of next generation VBO semipregs.

Displaying greatly improved mechanical properties, new components using these materials still need to be characterized and their suitability for aviation applications demonstrated. A common restriction to the implementation of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic parts is the almost default autoclave manufacturing, which is both time consuming and expensive. Aiming for a more economical final product, this study utilizes a one-step in-situ Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) process to produce samples for mechanical and thermal characterization. The recently developed and highly popular material CF/LM-PAEK was used within this study, with the four major AFP processing parameters varied to assess material sensitivity. Test samples were manufactured using Design of Experiment (DoE). Subsequently, single lap shear (SLS) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) tests were performed to assess consolidation quality. With rising tooling temperature, both SLS strength and crystallinity increase up to 31 MPa and 25%, respectively. A post-manufacturing tempering process improved crystallinity of the tested CF/LM-PAEK specimens up to 29% and SLS strength up to 38 MPa. Within the tested parameter range, CF/LM-PAEK appeared to be unaffected by increasing layup speed, which is a promising aspect with regard to faster industrial production.

The resin cross-linking and viscosity increase that occurs during out-time can reduce resin flow during a specified cure cycle, causing porosity. In this study, a flow-optimized cure cycle was developed, leveraging both flow level and time during out-of-autoclave (OoA) processing. First, predictive cure kinetics and viscosity models were used to model viscosity evolution under selected cure conditions, accounting for initial out-times and humidity conditioning. To quantify resin flow, an ‘effective flow number’ metric was defined as the integration of inverse viscosity evolution until the resin gelation point. The method described revealed that a rapid heating rate achieved by use of advanced tooling was essential to achieve a high effective flow number. The experimental results showed that the effective flow number is a useful criterion to limit flow-induced defects. The method presented also extends the boundary (by 175%) of the manufacturer’s specified out-life for OoA prepreg materials.

In this work, an in situ co-cure fixture is employed to directly observe the adhesive during processing and identify defect formation mechanisms specific to the bond-line. Relating fillet quality to imposed core pressure reveals the non-linear effect of core pressure. High pressures suppressed voids; intermediate pressures resulted in void growth and entrapment within deformed fillets; and low pressures led to void rupture and small, irregular fillets. Experimental results aided in developing a model to predict void growth in the bond-line. The findings presented here provide insight into the physics controlling the adhesive bond-line evolution during co-cure, which can inform manufacturing decisions to produce higher-quality honeycomb core sandwich structures.

Half-sandwich structures comprised of fiber-reinforced polymer facesheets, film adhesive, and core were fabricated using a custom-built lab fixture. Autoclave, bag, and core pressures were varied to produce controlled, constant pressure differences during cure, and the resulting skins were tested for permeability using a fixture constructed to measure gas flow rate across the skins and to locate gas flow pathways. Facesheet cross-sections were analyzed to evaluate porosity. Porosity and the number of gas flow pathways were correlated to permeability, but significant gas flow was possible without high void content or with few channels, as pressure differentials led to complex variations in permeability.

One possibility is to use Compression Resin Transfer Molding (CRTM), which is fast and can be highly automated. One disadvantage can be the very high cavity pressure during injection. To avoid this disadvantage, a pressure-controlled RTM (PC-RTM) process was developed. PC-RTM uses a variable mold gap height and an embedded pressure sensor to control the cavity pressure actively during mold filling. In this work, we investigate this process by experiments and simulations with varying initial mold gap and controlled cavity pressure. We show that PC-RTM is a viable manufacturing process with short cycle times and high robustness. Furthermore, the simulations are validated by comparison to the experiments and show the same process characteristics.

Flat and curved laminates were produced and characterized, confirming that porosity-free parts can be manufactured from a range of constituent materials using VBO semi-pregs.
