II Abstract The versatility of the braiding technology for the production of customized braids is nowadays still being done with a high manual effort for setting up the braiding machines. An automation of this process promises lower costs, reduced set-up times and consistently high product quality. In the present study a solution for the automated change of material on a conventional braiding machine is designed and constructed. The specifications and pattern of the braid material should be selected by the customer and transmitted through a network to the braiding machine. The development process is based on the proven design methodology of the VDI guideline 2206 which stands for the development of mechatronic systems, where a wide range of methods for the processing of the individual stages of development is applied, ranging from the scenario technique for requirements elicitation to heuristic methods for finding solutions through concept-rating means and utility analysis.

For these materials, various composite manufacturing processes have been developed such as Automated Tow Placement, Braiding, Diaphragm Forming, Resin Transfer Molding, Pultrusion, Autoclave Curing and Hand Lay Up. The aim of this paper is to examine the equipment used for these seven processes and to produce a cost analysis for each of the processes equipment. Since many of these processes are relatively new or are fairly costly and specified to the customers need, much of the equipment is custom made to meet the requirements of the part being produced. Current pricing information for individual custom-built machines, as well as standard machinery has been provided here.

Adanur, R.M. Nelms and R.M. BroughtonJr. The primary goal of this project is to develop a multi-phase weaving process that offers potential for significantly increasing the production rate of woven fabric To accomplish this goal, the mechanics of braiding must bc defined and the limitation imposed by yam-to-yarn friction during braiding must be overcome to allow forming of compact structures. ~n interdisciplinary research team of five faculty (3 TE, 1 ME & 1 E),ovcr the life of the project, have involved six graduate students and ten undergraduate students in projects to investigate a technology that offers a break though to increased weaving production rate using a braiding, 'yam slip interlacing' concept to produce a tubular sbuch~ewhich when bias slitted would make a flat woven fabric Design drawings for two machine test models have been completed and work is continuing on a novel slip shrouded weft yarn package and an electromagnetically activated warp yarn deflection mechanism. A defining manuscript on the mechania of braiding is nearing completion and solutions to overcome limits imposed by yarn-to-yarn friction on the compactness of a braided structure are being developed for study.

A brief history of bobbin lace and lace braiding machines is provided along with a discussion of the functionality of a Barmen lace braiding machine—the predecessor to the modern computerized lace braiding machine. It was found that the typical modern lace braiding machine lacked the robustness necessary to produce braided preforms using large, high-strength synthetic yarns such as carbon and aramid that are commonly found in advanced composite mate- rials. Improvements are proposed to enable lace braiding machines to be developed for future applications. Keywords: lace, jacquard, barmen, torchon, preform 1. Introduction Lace braided fabrics embody intricate patterns consisting of precisely placed yarns into struc- tures which from an advanced fiber placement standpoint appear suitable for pre-forms in composite manufacture.

  • What Kind of Braiding Fits Your Medical Device?
    PUBLICATION | FEBRUARY 2016 WHAT KIND OF BRAIDING FITS YOUR MEDICAL DEVICE? BRAIDING AS A PROMISING TECHNOLOGY Nowadays the medical device industry knows a broad range of different braided implants or components for cardiovascular, neurovascular or orthopedic applications such as stents, bone anchors, high-strength sutures or even parts of posterior spinal fixation systems. However, most of the medical device companies do not have their own in-house textile experts. This is where Meister & Cie AG comes into play. Not only does this publication present Meister’s commitment and services to the medical device industry but it also gives a general overview about braiding as a promising technology that can be applied in a variety of different ways in the field of clinical medicine. Meister offers the complete service portfolio throughout the entire process from your initial product idea and the development of prototypes to design freeze and in-house serial production under ISO class 8 conditions. Offering all these services under one roof, Meister is acting as an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and is your single point of contact for the development and the serial production of your braiding. Compared to traditional stainless steel solutions, braided structures have particular advantages, for example in the case of flexibility, elasticity or the ability to be compacted so that the product fits into a cannula, expanding at the designated spot in the body later on. This latter feature offers higher levels of safety and becomes more and more important for minimally invasive procedures like arthroscopy or laparoscopy. BRAIDING The process of braiding involves three or more individual strands of material forming an interlaced pattern by being placed diagonally to the product axis (at an angle of 40 to 60°).

ABSTRACT Optimal Design of a High Speed Rotary Braider By J Goodwin The aim of the work is to improve the performance of rotary braiding machines. An appraisal of existing rotary braiders concludes that all are limited in performance by one or more of the concepts they employ. None have been designedto optimise more than one or two aspectsof the rotary braiding concept. An increasein overall machine performance may be wrought by ensuring all the major areas of the rotary braiding concept are optimised in unison. The design is divided optimisation into two sections. -- The first is the theoretical and experimental study of the wire (product) behaviour.

  • Yarn and Braid Property Comparisons
    ABSTRACT BICKING, AMANDA MARGARET. Explorations in Fancy Braid Creation Through the Use of Industrial Machinery. (Under the direction of Dr. William Oxenham). The goal of the study was to identify how various yarns, their corresponding spool placement, and interlacements affected the structural and mechanical properties, appearance, shape, and performance of a tubular braid. By replacing one certain element or variable of the braid structure with a differing variable, (i.e. color, fiber, spool placement, or interlacement structure), a discrepancy is created, much like that of a fancy yarn. Though there are many braiding apparatuses available for braid production, the Cobra 450 Maypole braider was chosen to fabricate the experimental products due to its ease of operation, manipulation, and spool replacement. A standard twenty-four spool Maypole braider, the Cobra 450 produced hollow braids that allowed the structure to be utilized with or without a core; the machine was also capable of fabricating flat braids through the depression of the tubular structure and stitching the braid flatly in place. In addition, a Herzog winder was used to prepare spools for the braiding machine and a tensile tester was used in further studies to test properties of the braids produced. Preliminary work was designed to concurrently procure an assortment of braid samples and provide self-training on the braiding apparatus. By producing a series of braids, an improved comprehension of machine settings, material choice, and placement of yarns was achieved, while simultaneously fabricating a heightened design aesthetic in producing visual effects. Experimental studies within the preliminary work included color pattern development and structural effects, whereas quantitative-based experimental work reviewed the tensile effects of different interlacement structures and varying material selection.
