Composite component performance improvement and cost reduction are key areas of concern in the aerospace industry. This paper discusses how braiding can be used to improve performance and reduce manufacturing methods namely filament winding, manual and automated tape lay-up, roll wrapping (tape winding) and pultrusion in terms of versatility, component reproducibility, composite quality/structural integrity, design flexibility, damage tolerance, repairability, microcracking resistance, joints/attachments, resistance to thermally induced twist and lower manufacturing costs. Unlike filament winding where 0 deg axial fibers can't be laid down easily, triaxial braiding can be used to incorporate 0 deg fiber to improve strength, stiffness and structural integrity. The composite component can be fabricated in a shorter period of time in braiding as the number of rovings that can be laid down in braiding in a single pass are much higher than that in filament winding. Material savings resulting from minimal scrap also add to cost effectiveness.
