20120000597 | Method of manufacturing composite parts - A method of manufacturing two or more composite parts, the method comprising: assembling the composite parts on a mandrel by laying a series of layers of bands of composite material onto the mandrel with a placement machine,—rotating the mandrel as the bands are laid onto the mandrel; attaching two or more debulk frames ( | 01-05-2012 |
20120234472 | HOCKEY STICK AND RELATED METHOD OF MANUFACTURE - A composite hockey stick and related method of manufacture is provided. The hockey stick includes a blade joined with a tapered and elongated hosel that is further joined with an elongated handle or shaft. The method includes providing a cured blade, bladder-molding the elongated hosel while partially seated within the cured blade, and bladder-molding the shaft while partially seated within the cured hosel. The hosel can be tapered to have a toe-to-heel width that decreases and a side-to-side width increases as the hosel extends upwardly from the blade. The hosel can extend greater than the length of the blade to emphasize the gradual transition from the blade cross-section to the shaft cross-section. The resulting hockey stick can improve energy transfer during play while also providing a streamlined appearance and an improved resistance to breaking. | 09-20-2012 |

Preferred corrugated media, filter constructions having such corrugated media, and filter systems using such filter constructions are provided. Also, preferred methods of forming filter constructions are provided. | 11-15-2012 |
20140020819 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING CONTINUOUS COMPOSITE TUBE, APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING CONTINUOUS COMPOSITE TUBE - Method for manufacturing a continuous composite tube comprising translating a tube liner through a manufacturing station wherein the manufacturing station comprises a winding station and a consolidation station located at a distance downstream of the winding station; winding a composite tape on the tube liner at the winding station for forming a tape layer; consolidating the composite tape on the tube liner at a consolidation zone of the consolidation station by pressing and heating to the tape. | 01-23-2014 |
20140299262 | SYSTEMS, TOOLS, AND METHODS FOR FORMING COMPOSITE TUBULAR STRINGERS AND STIFFENED COMPOSITE STRUCTURES HAVING COMPOSITE TUBULAR STRINGERS - Systems, tools, and methods for forming composite tubular stringers and stiffened composite structures having composite tubular stringers are disclosed. Systems include a tool, a supply of pliable blanks for forming composite tubular stringers with the tool, a supply of skin segments for forming a skin, and a layup mandrel for receiving the composite tubular stringers and the skin to form a stiffened composite structure. Tools include a wrapping mandrel for forming from a pliable blank a tubular structure with a first circumferential profile, and a transition mandrel for conforming the tubular structure to a second circumferential profile. Methods include wrapping a pliable blank around a wrapping mandrel to define a tubular structure having a first circumferential profile, and transitioning the tubular structure from having the first circumferential profile to having a second circumferential profile. | 10-09-2014 |
20160107369 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A FILAMENT-WOUND STRUCTURE AND USE THEREOF - There is described a method for manufacturing a filament-wound hollow body. The method comprises providing a mandrel ( | 04-21-2016 |
