Manufacturing of an All Composite Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

전기체 복합재 무인항공기 제작

For the development of an all composite unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), manufacturing consideration in design phase, works for composite parts fabrication, subassembly and final assembly are summarized. In design phase, to maximize the advantage of composite material, manufacturing processes such as cocuring, cobonding and secondary bonding are introduced. For the curing of designed parts, composite tools are designed and manufactured. Assembly jigs are designed to satisfy dimensional tolerance of the structure. Inspection criteria are established and applied to the manufacturing. Technical data about inspection items and methods are summarized as manufacturing specifications for the mass production of the UAV structure.
