Abstract:The optimisation and control of automated tape placement (ATP) requires fast analysis tools able to utilise process data for predictions and monitoring. In this study, a strategy for in-process estimation of nip point temperatures is proposed. The method is based on a combination of two one-dimensional analytical solutions of heat transfer in ATP using temperature data measured on the tool surface, combined with an inverse solution for the estimation of power delivered by the heating device on the composite su… Show more
