Abstract
A method for shape forming a composite part includes positioning an oxidized PAN fiber preform between a first forming mold and a second forming mold. The first forming mold is pivotally coupled to the second forming mold such that rotating the first forming mold toward the second forming mold compresses the preform therebetween. The method can further include forming the preform into a shaped body first as the first forming mold is rotated toward the second forming mold. As the first forming mold rotates toward the second forming mold, a compressing force can first clamp a first side of the preform in place, and then the compressing force progresses along the preform from a first side of the preform, located at the hinge side of the first forming mold, toward a second side of the preform, located at a free side of the first forming mold.
