For the automotive industry, automated composite manufacturing via state-of-the-art Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) or Automated Tape Laying (ATL) is of limited interest due to moderate cycle times and limitations concerning applicable reinforcement materials. The novel Advanced Ply Placement (APP) on the other hand offers a high degree of freedom concerning fabric utilization. A unique multi-robotic handling process allows the APP to process dry fibers as well as pre-impregnated fibers with a large variety of fiber areal weights and fabric types. With the APP approach, automated, wrinkle free placement of wide, unidirectional fabrics onto complex, double curved geometries is possible.

    Offline robot path planning of the APP process is realized via FlexiCAM, a CAE interface for geometry based trajectory generation that allows databased parameter adaption and process simulation.

    The present paper will explain the working principles of the multi-robotic Advanced Ply Placement and distinguish between established automated manufacturing processes. Results on geometry based path generation via FlexiCAM and their applicability in the automotive industry will be discussed and the benefits of knowledge-based offline path planning will be highlighted.
