Project duration
1.1.2016 – 31.3.2019
Initial situation
- Helicopter rotor blade in prepreg construction very expensive and high manual effort
- Potential of innovative process chain (RTM design) could be demonstrated
- Robustness still questionable and economic efficiency or necessary degree of automation (4 sheets for the price of 5)
Objective
- Optimization/ proof of the robustness of the production process chain
- Mapping and optimization of the material flow / production layout
- Testing of different production scenarios ((partially) automated, supplier scenario, etc.) with regard to economic optimization potential
- Validation of economic efficiency
