Weight Reduction TRIZ Cases
- AFP Layup Mandrel Tool Vibration Damping via Spindle Support
Spindle-mounted mandrel panels reduce tool breakage and eliminate post-curing cutting by damping AFP vibrations.
- Segmented Pressing Device for Thermoplastic Composite Shaping
Segmented pressing means resolve autoclave size limits by applying localized pressure to large thermoplastic blanks, avoiding global alignment complexity.
- Pre-patterned Layup Kit for Automated Composite Airframe Manufacturing
A pre-patterned layup kit uses a flexible carrier to index composite laminae for automated application.
- Overlapping Caul Plates with Compliant Edges for Composite Manufacturing
Overlapping caul plates feature compliant edges that deform under pressure to form a continuous face across gaps between adjacent plates.
- UAV Foot Stand Resonance Mitigation via Internal Support Structure
An internal support structure extends into a lightening cavity of the UAV foot stand to boost rigidity, preventing resonance with propeller vibrations.
- Modular Composite Manufacturing for Aircraft Fuselage
Segmenting fuselage skins into composite modules reduces capital investment and factory space while increasing production rates.
