Advantages
Not generally as strong or
environmentally resistant as typical heat-cured epoxies

Trang 48Tape is butted together and seam welded to wider widths with a handheld iron Also, ply stacks can be tack melted together
Equipment takes multiple 30 cm (12 in.), 0° tape rolls and butt seams them to wide (i.e., 300 cm, or 118 in.) 0° or 45° roll stock
Wide roll 0° and 45° roll stocks are stacked together and melt fused into sheet stock
Material is laid to shape, vacuum bagged; autoclave heats TP to melt, applies pressure, and cools to consolidate
Slit tape stacks are pulled through a heated pressure die to generate continuous cross section Ts, Js, etc
Similar to pultruding, but uses rollers to shape, consolidate, and cool the material 0.5 cm (0.2 in.) wide slit tape rolls are placed and melt fused to prior layers on a contoured mold tool (may autoclave after to get full compaction)
Similar to FL, but uses wider slit tape (7 cm, or 2.75 in.), better for large gentle contour parts such as wing skins
Induction Similar to diaphragm, but an electromagnet field is used to heat the extendable
plates, not the tool, thereby reducing cycle time

Bolt Bending
Trang 80Fig 1 Example of plastic bending curves for nickel alloy 718 Ftu , ultimate tensile
Trang 81Fig 2 Blind fastener bolt bending and deflection (a) Smooth bore allows little resistance
to bolt bending in multiple piece fasteners such as blind fasteners The multiple pieces act
as axial laminates and slide over each other (b) The effect of the threads on the corebolt
“lock” the corebolt to the other components and improve stiffness of the joint However, the notches (threads) can be detrimental in fatigue if the loads are high enough to cause significant deflections
