A laying head for manufacturing a three-dimensional preform includes an inlet configured to feed in a plurality of dry rovings. A fiber conveying device simultaneously and mutually-independently conveys, in a fiber supplying direction, the rovings fed-in via the inlet. An outlet is arranged downstream of the fiber conveying device in the fiber supplying direction and simultaneously lays the plurality of rovings on a workpiece carrier to manufacture the three-dimensional preform. A fiber-cutting device is disposed downstream of the fiber conveying device and upstream of the outlet in the fiber supplying direction and cuts the rovings. A nozzle applies a medium onto the rovings. A slit-shaped through gap of the nozzle has a height is equal to the height of the dry rovings in the thickness direction plus a margin that is sufficiently small so as to cause the medium to be forcibly embedded into the dry rovings.

Protruding features, such as tabs, adjacent to different peripheral edges of the protective film may enable removal of the backing and the application tape from the protective film, and may include features that indicate the order in which each protruding feature is to be grasped to peel its corresponding element away from the protective film.

An efficient method for manufacturing a partially cured composite component intended to be joined with other component or components to form a composite structure and a manufacturing method of the composite structure. The partial curing of a composite layup is achieved using a mold comprising heat conductive elements and insulating elements and applying heat and pressure over the mold. The heat conductive elements are used to transmit or dissipate heat to/from the composite layup. The insulating elements are used to prevent the transmission or dissipation of heat to/from the composite layup.
