Achieving efficiency and precision in layup

Maximum efficiency and precision in every step of ply layup

  • Efficient production:
    Faster, visually guided placement (layup) of the individual fiber plies.
  • Error elimination:
    Clear contour projection reliably prevents incorrect placement or wrong ply orientation.
  • Process optimization:
    Template-free production with direct control and data import from CAD software.
  • Maximum precision:
    Guaranteed, reliable process repeatability even for components with the most complex shapes.
  • High flexibility:
    Easy, immediate adaptation to changing geometries and dimensions of the parts being produced.

Do you face these challenges too?

Challenges

  • Manual ply placement is time-consuming and prone to errors
  • High quality standards under constant pressure to reduce costs
  • Incorrect fiber alignment puts component quality at risk
  • Geometry changes require templates to be replaced frequently
  • Complex shapes and free-form surfaces make it harder to ensure process reliability

Solutions

  • Laser projectors project precise outlines for manual fiber and ply layup directly onto the tool or mold.
  • They reduce scrap, increase process repeatability and significantly speed up the production cycle.
  • Processing and handling prepregs, fabrics or mats becomes easier, faster and safer.
  • Even with multi-ply parts or spatially complex 3D molds, the correct orientation and layup direction of the plies is always clear.
  • Versatile use across industries – they are ideal for aerospace, automotive, wind energy, architecture or shipbuilding.

Applications

Do you want to shorten setup times, prevent errors and produce complex shapes with precision? Our laser projectors project work instructions directly into the field of view – intuitively, quickly and with high accuracy.

Glass and carbon fiber layup

From the precise layup of glass and carbon fibers to the production of complex aerospace components: laser projectors are indispensable in the aerospace industry.

Composite semi-finished products for wind turbines

Precise placement of glass and carbon fibers with the help of laser projectors can increase productivity in rotor blade production by up to 30%. At the same time, quality is optimized and human error is minimized.

Wind turbine rotor production

Laser projectors simplify and speed up the positioning of glass fabrics and prepregs in wind turbine rotor production by precisely displaying the outlines of the individual plies. They are compatible with common 3D CAD formats, increase productivity by up to 30%, improve blade quality, minimize errors and make the production process more efficient.
