DEVICE AND METHOD FOR COMPACTING/CONSOLIDATING A PART MADE OF A COMPOSITE MATERIAL HAVING A THERMOPLASTIC MATRIX REINFORCED BY CONTINUOUS FIBERS, IN PARTICULAR FIBERS OF NATURAL ORIGIN

摘要

Device for forming and consolidating a textile preform (600) comprising continuous fibers impregnated with a thermoplastic polymer, a method of implementation by this device and a part obtained by such a method, the device comprising: i. a die (200) comprising a shape (210) having a cavity (220) corresponding to the shape of the piece, which shape extends in depth between an inlet plane and a bottom and is inserted into a carcass (230) ; ii. induction heating means (241, 242) of the form (210) comprising two inductors extending into cavities of the form (210) and each forming a turn in a plane, substantially parallel to the input plane of the imprint (220), and between said input plane and the bottom of the shape; iii. means (235) for cooling the matrix.
