Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fiber application head for a fiber application machine for producing parts made of composite materials, and more particularly to a so-called fiber placement head equipped with an infrared type heating system.
- the present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing composite material parts by means of a corresponding application head.
- Fiber application machines commonly known as fiber placement machines, are known for contacting drape tools, such as a male or female mold, with a wide web of multiple flat fibers.
- continuous, ribbon type dry or impregnated with thermosetting or thermoplastic resin, especially carbon fibers consisting of a multitude of carbon threads or filaments.
- thermoplastic or thermosetting resin conventionally in an amount of at least 40% by weight
- the prepreg preform obtained after draping is cured or polymerized by passing through an oven to obtain a piece of composite material.
- the fibers comprise a reduced quantity of so-called binding resin, also called a binder, generally a thermoplastic resin, in an amount of less than or equal to 5% by weight, to give a character sticky to the fibers during draping.
- binding resin also called a binder
- thermoplastic resin in an amount of less than or equal to 5% by weight
- These machines conventionally comprise a fiber application head, a displacement system of said head, fiber storage means, and fiber routing means for conveying the fibers. fibers of said storage means to the head.
- the head conventionally comprises an application roller, also called compaction roller, intended to come into contact against the mold for applying the strip, and fiber guiding means on said application roller.
- the head further generally comprises a heating system for heating the fibers.
- the compaction roller presses the fiber web against the application surface of the mold, or against the previously deposited fiber web or strips, in order to facilitate the adhesion of the strips deposited between them, as well as to progressively evacuate trapped air between the deposited tapes.
- the heating system provides a heating of the fiber web to be applied, and / or the mold or strips already applied upstream of the compaction roller, just before the compaction of the web, in order to at least soften the resin of pre impregnation or binding resin, and thus promote the adhesion of the strips together.
- the prepreg fibers are simply heated to soften them, typically at temperatures of the order of 40 ° C.
- the heating system conventionally comprises an infrared heating system comprising one or more infrared lamps.
- the pre-impregnated fibers must be heated to higher temperatures, at least up to the melting temperature of the resin, ie of the order of 200 ° C. for nylon-type resins, and up to 200 ° C. at about 400 ° C for PEEK resins.
- Hot-air torches are a cost-effective solution, but the heating zone and heating temperature are difficult to adjust precisely.
- Laser heating systems are more accurate in terms of heating zone definition and heating temperature. These laser heating systems significantly increase the total cost of the fiber placement cell, and present significant constraints in terms of safety.
- the laser beam is generally routed from the laser source to the laser optics carried by the head by means of an optical fiber. This fiber optic system may be incompatible with some displacement systems of the fiber placement machine and / or interchangeable head concepts, in which the fiber reels can be shipped.
- the object of the invention is to propose a solution that overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks, and in particular a heating system for a fiber placement machine that is simple in design and construction and that allows the implementation of dry fibers with thermoplastic binder and or fibers pre-impregnated with a thermoplastic resin.

- Such a heating system is simple in design and is fully embedded on the head, without remote part as for a laser type system.
- Such a heating system may especially be advantageously used for interchangeable application heads, and / or with heads associated with particular displacement systems that do not allow the connection of elements of the heating system on board the head to d '. other elements deported from the head.
- said secondary guiding system is capable of laterally guiding said strip at the output of the main guiding system, and thus preventing a lateral displacement of the strip in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the roller, preferably adapted to guide laterally each fiber of said strip.

- said head constitutes a fiber placement head comprising cutting means and means for rerouting, and possibly fiber blocking means.
- the invention also relates to a method for producing a composite material part comprising the application of continuous fibers to an application surface to form a preform comprising several folds of fibers superposed in different orientations, each fold being made by applying one or more strips in an orientation, each strip being formed of one or more fibers, characterized in that the application of fibers is carried out by means of a fiber application head as defined above, by relative displacement of the application head relative to the drape surface according to different removal paths.
- the process according to the invention is particularly advantageous in the case of dry preforms made from dry fibers provided with a binder and / or thermoplastic preforms made from fibers pre-impregnated with thermoplastic resin.
- the method further comprises a resin impregnation step in the dry preform, by adding one or more impregnation resins by infusion or injection to the dry preform, and a step of hardening to obtain a composite material part.

- the fiber placement head advantageously comprises a compacting roller 11 adapted to adapt to the application surface, in particular to convex and / or concave application surfaces to ensure substantially uniform compaction over the entire width of the strip.
- the roller is for example a compacting roll of a so-called flexible material, which is elastically deformable, such as an elastomer.
- the roll is cooled by a cooling system 16 comprising a deflector or nozzle supplied with air by conduits (not shown) connected to the nozzle via connectors 16a, the nozzle covering the roll over a large sector, more than 180 °, opposite the application surface.

- the heating system comprises infrared lamps or emitters marketed under the trade name Golden 8 by the company Heraeus Noblelight.
- the heating system is in the active position, the first lamp 3 heats the draper fibers coming out of the main guide system, before they are applied to the application surface by the roll, and the second lamps 4 heat the surface application and / or fibers of the previous ply or plies, this to ensure the connection between the fibers to be draped and the surface and / or fibers previously draped.
- the first lamp 3 is oriented so as to also heat the nip between the roll and the application surface, as well as possibly the part of the application surface or previously draped fibers which is just upstream of the roll.
- FIGS 5 and 6 illustrate an alternative embodiment in which the head is further equipped with a secondary said lateral guide system 7, for laterally guiding the fibers coming out of the main guide system.
- This lateral secondary guide system is in the form of a comb, comprising a base 71 by which the comb is mounted on the head, said base carrying a plurality of fingers 72.
- Each fiber is thus guided laterally between two tongues, the tabs preventing lateral displacement of the fibers parallel to the axis Al of the roll.
- the small section of the tongues namely their small thickness, forms a screen negligible to the radiation emitted by the first lamp.
- the lateral main guide system comprises only the two so-called outer tongues, of the aforementioned comb, referenced 72a and 72b, for laterally guiding the outer fibers of a complete strip, formed in this example of 16 fibers, the two tabs preventing lateral displacement of the strip in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the roller.
