Abstract
Methods, apparatuses and systems are disclosed for making and applying composite material rework parts to rework composite substrates by partially forming a composite material rework part before staging the rework part onto the composite substrate. An approximate geometry is imparted to the partially formed rework part, with the final composite material rework part geometry imparted by the composite substrates requiring rework, as the rework part is finally shaped and cured in situ on the composite substrate.
