Systems and methods are provided for fabricating curved preforms of fiber reinforced material. Methods include laying up at least one ply onto a carrier of flexible material at a lamination station, loading the carrier onto a rail system, routing the carrier to a particular Ply-By-Ply (PBP) forming station at the rail system, separating the at least one ply from the carrier, and making the at least one ply into the preform via the particular PBP forming station.
