A method of manufacturing a thermoplastic panel may comprise: laying up a panel preform within a consolidation assembly, the panel preform comprising a plurality of plies of material comprising thermoplastic resin and fiber; generating, via a hot bond unit, a vacuum environment within the consolidation assembly; and heating, via the hot bond unit and through a heated blanket within the consolidation assembly, the panel preform.

A modular tooling arrangement includes a base member comprising a planar working surface, a frame circumscribing a first cavity at least partially defined by the planar working surface, and a plurality of plates configured to be received in the first cavity for forming a second cavity of a desired shape and size. The plurality of plates at least partially define the second cavity configured to receive a work piece. The plurality of plates may be replaced with plates of various sizes to vary at least one of the size and shape of the second cavity.
