INFLUENCE OF PROCESSING TEMPERATURES ON THE DEFLECTION OF HYBRID-METAL-CARBON COMPOSITES MADE BY RESIN TRANSFER MOULDING

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

This paper shows the impact of resin pre-heating temperature and mould temperature on the deformation of hybrid metal CFRP plates manufactured through a single-step resin transfer moulding process. A design of experiment study was carried out and the final plate deformation was measured by a laser based measuring system. The study shows the interaction between the process temperatures on the final part geometry. Strategies to reduce the temperature induced deformations and stresses will be discussed.
