Abstract

A method is provided that uses half-period translations, ply-upon-pin repositions, and shape-maintaining pins with a bolster plate, with insertable nodal heating elements that provide heat at their rectangular ends and when driven under pressure against opposing pins with rectangular faces cure portions of a pre-impregnated fabric to make honeycomb core composite articles.
