Method for honeycomb panel bonding by thermosetting film adhesive with electrical heat means
Resistance wire layer is introduced during winding of the fiber glass filaments with simultaneous heating. Emission of heat from the wire layer cures second fiber glass layer.
A backup bar designed to use both vacuum and air pressure provides a method of sealing the weld root of a faulty section of seam weld. With slight redesign, the bar can be made sufficiently flexible to fit any large cylindrical surface.
For flexibility in forming a curved surface, a honeycomb configuration using multiple pleats has proved superior to the usual core structures. The partial pleats formed in individual cell walls permit movements to and from the central axis without tearing.
To protect curved, finished surface and provide support for workmen, portable flooring has been made from rigid plastic foam blocks, faced with aluminum strips. Held together by nylon webbing, the flooring can be rolled up for easy carrying.
