Systems and methods for on-aircraft composite repair using double vacuum debulking

An in-situ double vacuum debulk (DVD) composite repair system designed to produce partially or fully cured autoclave-quality hot-bond composite repairs on contoured structures. The system provides vacuum pressure for hot bond repairs to be performed on flat and contoured structures using one set-up capable of debulking (partially curing) and then fully curing composite repairs on composite and metallic aircraft structures. The use of in-situ DVD also eliminates handling of the patch/adhesive when transferring from an off-aircraft DVD chamber to the repair site on the aircraft. This can increase the probability of successful repairs because the possibility of contaminating and misaligning the adhesive and repair patch are eliminated.

09994008 · 2018-06-12 · ·

System and method for compacting a composite ply layup comprising a forming tool comprising a top surface and a composite ply layup laid up along the top surface of the forming tool. A single release film comprising a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface of the single release film comprises a first non-planar bottom surface. The first non-planar bottom surface placed over a top surface of the composite ply layup. A venting port operatively coupled directly to the top surface of the single release film. A vacuum source operatively coupled to the venting port and configured to generate a vacuum to the single release film, such that the first non-planar bottom surface of the single release film defines a breather path for the vacuum generated by the vacuum source to distribute over the top surface of the composite ply layup.

Modular press
12134243 · 2024-11-05 · ·

An arrangement for pressing materials containing liquid has mobile press container with an container interior that is divided by a press membrane into a pressure medium chamber and a pressing medium chamber. A filling and emptying opening, which can be closed in a pressure-tight manner, allows material to be pressed to be added to the pressing medium chamber. At least one drainage element is arranged in the pressing medium chamber. An interior of the drainage element communicates with a juice discharge of the press container. A turning device, in which the mobile press container is temporarily received can be rotated during a pressing operation from a filling position, about an angle of less than 360, more particularly of less than 270, in mutually opposing directions of rotation about an axis of rotation. There is also described a method for pressing liquid-containing materials.
