The disclosure is directed to a method for producing a Fiber Metal Laminate component of an airplane, using a manipulator system with an end effector and a control, wherein at least one metal layer and at least one unhardened fiber layer are being stacked onto each other in a mould in a stacking sequence, wherein each stacking cycle comprises picking up a metal layer or a fiber layer from a supply stack according to the stacking sequence, transporting the layer to the mould, placement of the layer at a deposition surface in the mould and depositing the so placed layer onto the deposition surface. After being picked up from the supply stack and before being deposited onto the deposition surface the layer to be stacked can be deformed by the end effector as to adapt the form of the layer to the form of the deposition surface.

A composite component for a vehicle has a core layer made from a theiinoplastic plastic foam and at least one cover layer which is connected to the core layer. The core layer has a higher density in one region than the density of the semi-finished core layer. The cover layer formed from a fiber-reinforced plastic is connected in the region of higher density to at least one joining element by friction welding.

A 0 unidirectional yarn prepreg and a preparation method are disclosed. The 0 unidirectional yarn prepreg has high-strength filaments which are arranged in parallel to each other in an axial direction X of a winding roller around which unidirectional yarn prepregs are wound and a resin is impregnated. The method includes steps of: (i) weaving a fabric using a thermoplastic film tape as a warp and using high-strength filaments as wefts; and (ii) performing thermal compression on the woven fabric at a temperature in which the warp is melted. Also, a multiaxial prepreg composite material is prepared by simultaneously and continuously supplying the 0 unidirectional yarn prepreg A prepared as described above method and a 90 unidirectional yarn prepreg B prepared by a conventional warping method to a thermal compression roller, and performing thermal compression thereon.

An interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) adhesive comprises an acrylated polymer system curable by radiation, and a flexible epoxy system thermally curable after the acrylated polymer system is cured.

A joint structure (1) for a composite member made from a composite material. The joint structure includes a plate for increasing thickness (40a, 40b) adhered to at least one side of the composite member (10). The composite member (10) and a counterpart member (20) are fastened together by inserting and fixing a fastener member (30) into a through-hole (24, 26) formed through the composite member (10), the plate for increasing thickness (40a, 40b), and the counterpart member (20) to be joined to the composite member.

A resin-rich peel ply that does not leave behind residual fibers after peeling and can work well with different resin-based composite substrates. The resin-rich peel ply is composed of a woven fabric impregnated with a resin matrix different from the resin matrix of the composite substrate. The peel ply is designed such that, upon manual removal of the peel ply from the composite substrate's surface, a thin film of the peel ply resin remains on the composite substrate's surface to create a bondable surface capable of bonding with another composite substrate, but no fibrous material from the woven fabric remains on the same surface.
