REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: Aerospace Composite Forming Tool

The National Composites Centre (NCC) requires information to shape the generation of a tooling requirement for a forming manufacturing process using dry fibre non-crimp fabric (NCF) of a complex aerospace component. The component is approximately 6000mm x 750mm and up to 20mm thick. It is expected that process development will be carried out on the same tooling for a smaller component. An overview of the proposed manufacturing process flow is provided in the RFI specification (see details below) to illustrate furth...
