A ply sorting device is disclosed, comprising a picker and a buffer. The picker is arranged to pick planar plies of cut fiber material and move them to the buffer. The buffer comprises a plurality of substantially planar supports each arranged to receive phes from the picker and to support the plies in planar orientation. The planar supports are movably arranged relative to each other to receive the plies. In addition, a method of sorting plies of differing geometry is disclosed. Planar plies of cut fiber material are picked and moved to supports of a buffer where plies are received in a planar orientation, and supports are moved relative to each other to receive the plies.

A tape sectioning system, comprising a tape web feed path for feeding a web of fiber reinforced tape, a quality inspection system arranged along the web feed path that inspects the quality of the web of tape, and a sectioner that sections off longitudinal tape sections from the web of tape, wherein the sectioner is arranged to vary the length of the tape sections that are sectioned off from the web of tape based on the outcome of the quality inspection.

A method of non-destructively testing a magnetisable conducting object surrounded by a magnetisable layer wherein the field strength of a primary magnetic field that is applied exterior to the magnetisable layer is abruptly changed. A vanishing secondary magnetic field generated by eddy currents induced by the changed field strength of the primary magnetic field is received and the temporal field strength of the received secondary magnetic field is analysed for deriving characteristics of the magnetisable conducting object. Furthermore, a transient tertiary magnetic field exterior to the magnetisable layer when the field strength of the primary magnetic field abruptly changes is applied wherein the orientation of the primary and tertiary magnetic field, respectively, are mutually opposite.
