Braiding is a sophisticated manufacturing technique that involves the interlacing of fibers at different angles to achieve specific mechanical properties. The braiding process begins with the selection of fiber types and the design of the braid pattern, which determines the final properties of the composite. The fibers are then fed into a braiding machine, which consists of a series of spools or bobbins arranged around a central core. As the core rotates, the spools move in a coordinated manner, weaving the fibers together according to the predetermined pattern. One of the key advantages of braiding is its ability to create complex, three-dimensional shapes without the need for additional molding or shaping processes. This flexibility allows manufacturers to produce components with tailored properties and geometries, optimizing performance while minimizing material waste. In addition to its mechanical benefits, braiding offers advantages in terms of production efficiency. The process can be highly automated, reducing labor costs and increasing throughput compared to manual lay-up methods. Furthermore, braided preforms can be produced in continuous lengths, enabling seamless integration into larger assemblies with minimal joints or seams.
