    Abstract: Provided is a shaping method for shaping a laminated body of multi-layered sheet materials containing reinforcing fibers by using a shaping die. The shaping die has a curved portion formed in a convex shape over a predetermined direction. The shaping method includes: fixing, to the shaping die, a holding member configured to cover the laminated body over the predetermined direction to maintain a state where the laminated body is pressed against the curved portion; sealing the laminated body and the holding member to the shaping die by a sealing member to form a closed space; and depressurizing the closed space to thin the laminated body by sucking air of the closed space, and the fixing fixes the holding member to the shaping die such that the holding member does not come into contact with an end face on one side in the predetermined direction of the laminated body.

    Abstract: A tool system for producing a component from a fiber-reinforced plastic includes a molding tool with a tool surface having a peripheral edge, a compensating body having a coefficient of thermal expansion greater than that of the molding tool, a closure device, and a heating device for heating the molding tool. The tool surface is configured to receive, at a first temperature, at least one ply of a semifinished fiber product having a peripheral contour within the peripheral edge, and of the compensating body, along the peripheral edge, so the compensating body extends from the peripheral edge in a direction of the peripheral contour. The closure device is configured to close the molding tool to form a closed mold and, at a same time, to enclose the at least one ply of the semifinished fiber product and the compensating body. The closed mold includes a resin conduit for receiving resin.

    Abstract: A composite shaft has a fiber orientation that is a combination of fibers perpendicular to each other and a longitudinal axis of the shaft; and a second composite layer disposed at an angle ranging between 25 to 45 degrees+/−3 degrees from the fibers in the first composite layer; a third composite layer disposed at an angle ranging between 7 to 13 degrees+/−3 degrees from the fibers in the second composite layer and each subsequent transition layer(s); a fourth composite layer disposed at an angle ranging between 25 to 45 degrees+/−3 degrees from the fibers in the third composite layer(s); and a fifth composite generally perpendicular +/−3 degrees to each other and the fibers in the fourth composite layer.
