Production-related preliminary damage and residual stresses have significant effects on the functions and the damage development in fiber composite components. For this reason, it is important, especially for the safety-relevant components, to check each item. This task becomes a challenge in the context of serial production, with its growing importance in the field of lightweight components. The demand for continuous-reinforced thermoplastic composites increases in various industrial areas. According to this, an innovative Continuous Orbital Winding (COW) process was carried out within the framework of the Federal Cluster of Excellence EXC 1075 “MERGE Technologies for Multifunctional Lightweight Structures”. COW is aiming for mass-production-suited processing of special semi-finished fiber reinforced thermoplastic materials. This resource-efficient and function-integrated manufacturing process contains a combination of thermoplastic tape-winding with automated thermoplastic tape-laying technology. The process has a modular concept, which allows implementing other special applications and technologies, e.g. integration of different sensor types and high-speed automated quality inspection. The results show how to control quality and improve the stability of the COW process for large-scale production. This was realized by developing concepts of a fully integrated quality-testing unit for automatic damage assessment of composite structures. For this purpose, the components produced in the COW method have been examined for imperfections. This was performed based on obtained results of non-destructive or destructive materials testing.
