Development of innovative automated fiber placement machine for composite fuselage manufacturing with high performance hybrid materials. Activities described in the present Topic shall contribute to develop and validate an advanced process of hybrid materials automated lay-up for manufacturing of regional aircraft composite fuselage which allows a significant reduction of the overall production costs and manufacturing flow. After a developmental phase to be performed at Partner site, the innovative process and related machine shall be validated and costs assessed through the execution of dedicated lay-up tests and fabrication of fuselage demonstrators at Topic Manager plant. For the full topic description see the Call Text Document (Annex of Workplan) published with this call.
