Abstract
The system has special application in the manufacture of aircraft wing covers (made of carbon fiber and the stringers () cured jointly with the wing cover during the polymerization in autoclave. The tool pieces () being used are defined by angular elements () copying the geometry of the stringers (). The shape of these stringers corresponds to the 'T' section. The angular elements () comprise, in their upper part, a pair of battlements () in order to be caught by part of the clamps () of a head () linked to a robot () of the spherical type with articulated arm with six axes. The angular elements () are made of INVAR material and they are used to keep in position the stringers during the curing cycle in the autoclave.
