Modular structure of a new feed-deposition head for a robotized filament winding cell

摘要: This work shows the modular structure of a new feed-deposition head for robotized cell able to manufacture complex shape parts in composite material by means filament winding technology. The assembles, unique structure, four critical subgroups or modules involved roving winding: main frame, roving-guide system, tensioner and deposition system. Each component is deeply discussed this paper terms geometry, i.e. shape, dimensions tolerances, interfaces with other modules, constitutive selection related manufacturing processes. adopted solutions have allowed increase both efficiency part quality controlling process parameters, such as tension, speed trajectory through very compact flexible proved results some experimental tests. Moreover, resulting easily adaptable every robot machine used wind. Finally, enables an easy maintenance updating.
