Producibility and Serviceability of Kevlar-49 Structures Made on Hot Layup Tools

Abstract

The purposes of the program were: evaluate the producibility of a helicopter structural component made from Kevlar-49 fibers, demonstrate the low cost aspects of using hot layup tools to fabricate composite structures, and evaluate the serviceability of the Kevlar-49 structure in actual field operations.
