Composite Filament Winding RIT Multidisciplinary Design Project P 09226 Shijo George, Alex Sandy, Tiago Santos, Christofer Brayton, Daniel Weimann www. thaicomposites. com

Project Background • Composite Tubing – Carbon Fiber, Fiberglass, Kevlar – Benefits • High strength • Light weight • High creep and fatigue performance • Chemical and corrosion resistance – Uses • • Drive shaft/half shaft Golf Clubs Pipes Pressure vessels

Filament Winding • Continuous strand of impregnated fibers wound onto a mandrel • Often computer controlled • Mandrel may be removed post cure

Project Goals • Capability – Develop filament winding within department – Base for future senior design teams • Composite tube – Variable length – Variable wrap angle • Machine – Robust expandable design – Simple partially automated operation • Test – Compare theoretical and experimental results • Risks – Budget • $2000 Preliminary budget – Design • Integration – Control structure • Resin Impregnation • Tension • Fiber Slip – Time • 2 quarters • 11 week build/test • Part lead time

Team Roles P 09226 Creel Tension Resin Bath Feedeye Mandrel Motors Shijo (ME) Dan (ME) Alex (ME) Tiago (ME) Shijo (ME) Alex (ME) Chris (EE) Tiago (ME) Dan (ME) Shijo (ME) Controls Chris (EE)

Responsibilities • Feedeye – Lead screw calculations – Carriage, mounting • Tension – Explore capabilities • Electromagnetic Brake • Motor Brake – Work with Chris (EE) to ensure control • Mandrel – Lathe condition • Chuck, Tailstock • Solid Modeling

Project Plan • Detailed Design Review • Senior Design 2 – Multiple reviews 2/92/18 – Build Stage • Executive Review – 2/20 • Finalized Parts List – 2/25 • Working Machine 4/24 – Testing • 4/27 – 5/1

Desired Outcome • Develop capability • Base for further within department development – Senior Design • Create composite wound • Increase Spools tube – Repeatable – Confirmable through testing • Advanced controls • Multi-axis
