METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A CENTRAL WING BOX FROM PROFILE SECTIONS PRODUCED USING HIGH-PRESSURE, LOW-TEMPERATURE FORMING, AND A CENTRAL WING BOX OBTAINED FROM IMPLEMENTING THE METHOD

摘要

A method for manufacturing an aircraft central wing box from a plurality of U-shaped and C-shaped profile sections made of composite material and from an outer skin of fibrous reinforcements formed on the U-shaped and C-shaped profile sections. The C-shaped and U-shaped profile sections are obtained by a method involving a step of compressing resin-impregnated fibrous reinforcements at a pressure greater than or equal to 7 bar and at a temperature less than or equal to 90° C. This solution makes it possible to optimize the dimensional and geometric accuracy of the profile sections and the surface finish thereof.
