Abstract

The invention pertains to a method for manufacturing a FRC/FRP-component component from rovings by means of a molding tool with a mold surface, featuring the steps of: applying rovings formed of dry fibers onto the mold surface by depositing the rovings under tension with predetermined orientations between deflection devices by means of an application device, applying binder material onto the tensioned rovings; consolidating the arrangement of fiber strands and binder material by applying heat and pressure in order to produce a preform for the component to be manufactured; separating the preform from the deflection devices and removing the preform from the molding tool; and carrying out an injection process or infusion process in order to manufacture the component after separating the preform from the deflection devices; as well as to a molding tool and a device for implementing the method.
