Abstract
A composite structure such as a stringer is produced by laying up composite charges at a layup station, spooling the charges onto a roll and transporting the roll to a forming station where the charges are unrolled and formed into individual components of the stringer. The components are then transferred to an assembly station where they are assembled together and vacuum bagged in preparation for curing.
