AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for manufacturing composite elements with high directional stiffness and mechanical strength are limited by time-consuming and costly mold creation processes, as well as the inability of current 3D printing technologies to produce components with complex shapes and directional fiber arrangements beyond a single plane.
A 3D printing method using a print head attached to an industrial robot with multiple mechanical and energy transmission connections, allowing for the directional arrangement of continuous fibers on a heterogeneous structural core, enabling the production of composite elements with hybrid structures that combine a lightweight, complex shape with superior mechanical properties.
This method reduces production costs and time by eliminating the need for molds, allows for the creation of components with complex shapes and directional fiber arrangements, and enhances mechanical strength and flexibility by optimizing fiber placement, enabling the production of lightweight, high-strength composite elements with improved stiffness and flexibility.
