[0002] Composite material sabots have become a top research focus in China. Previous research has revealed that one-piece molded sabots suffer from poor stability. The large size and width of the one-piece molded material sheets make them prone to uneven thickness and weight imbalance under external pressure, leading to gaps on the internal or external surfaces and causing localized bending. Furthermore, the sabot shaft contains windward and pressure-bearing curved surfaces, as well as areas of uneven thickness, making the ply structure design challenging. Therefore, a solution is needed that meets product structural strength requirements while reducing ply process complexity and improving production efficiency.
