so they easily slot into position. This makes the assembly stage easy for
the manufacturers.
Many engineers say that the use of ridges make sure that the shells wont
crack if you had to drill holes into the shells however using ridges will
ensure that they would just slide in without an issue. The next stage
involves the parts to be sent back to the AutoClave to cure again for the
last time where the parts between the two shells will stregnthen and
assemble together making sure they dont collapse apart. assebly
methods of creating composite parts of the airplane is very simillar to
those methods used to manufacturing a formula one car.
After the parts are taken out of the AutoClave safely it is sprayed and
coated with epoxy primer then a layer of polyeurafane is added this
makes the parts resistant to weather avoiding corrosion when the plane
finally takes flight. The frame is made upon a composite material called
high grade carbon steel which is 30% more stronger than normal carbon
steel due to it containing more carbon. The non composite material used
would be the shell of the plane as it would be made of a much structured
harderdend plastic. The wings are then added to the body shell also with

and inch thick between two layers of the fibre glass cloth. This foam
insulates of several things such as noise,heat and cold. Any voids that
need to be filled are injected with epoxy resin.
The next method that is used to produce the fuselage of an light aircraft
following the sandwich stage is to use the vacuum bagging method. The
vacuum bagging method as I described before in this assignment is used
to produce formula one cars, this shows the importance of this stage as it
is used in nearly every engineered manufactured design in the world. The
vacuum bagging process involves every component to be covered with
perforated plastic just like the a formula one car, a clamp is attached to
the bagging to suckle all the air. Once the air is taken out and compressed
the components are taken to be cured into an AutoClave sitting around
180 degrees .
The next method used to construct a fuselage is the the trimshot method
basically which is taking out the excess fibre glass to create
space for windows and doors. Once the techinitians have
sucessfully trimshotted the excess fibre glass the main
structure is set to be cured for a secound time , now
around 175 degrees. The parts stay in the AutoClave
machine for around 15-18 hours. As soon as the parts are
released from the AutoClave they are sent to the
department of paint , the parts are painted and coated with epoxy primer
and poly europhane which persist weathering and damages.

However just like any other thing in world spray up also includes several
disadvanages one of the few disadvantages are spray up process doesnt
cover every aspect of the shape due to your spraying you wouldnt
remember exactly wear you sprayed. One side could be done perfectly
and the other could be rough and unfinished.
Spray Up comes with several health risk as you are using several
chemicals included inside of the resin. You would need to use several
