is investigating the usability of prefabricated fibre reinforcement produced in a robotic winding process for different AM methods. He’s developing an automated production process of the fibre reinforcement for the special needs of the project. This includes the investigation of the most suitable reinforcement geometry, the build-up of a dynamic winding machine and the integration of it into a robotic winding process.
