Bridging in AFP-manufactured sandwich structures: investigation of the influence of material tackiness, process parameters and path planning

Several studies have shown that using Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) technology can improve productivity and resource efficiency in manufacturing sandwich structures. In this process the bridging effect occurs, which negatively impacts the processability and component quality. The aim of our work i...
