Summary on Grant Application Form |
A novel method for using a CAD representation of a structural assembly in the manufacture. The system works by linking the computer to a robot arm which directs resin coated fibres along the assembly profile and cures them to a hard stiff beam which is self supporting to form the 3D structure.
