Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for through thickness reinforcement of a fibrous preform includes an actuating textile needle, a feeder spool configured to supply a veil cloth, and a take up spool. The feeder spool and take up spool can rotate to cause a portion of the veil cloth to translate such that a needled portion of the veil cloth is received by the take up spool and an unneedled portion of the veil cloth is provided for subsequent needling by the textile needle. In this manner, the veil cloth is only momentarily supplied to the fibrous preform for providing the through thickness fibers and removed from the fibrous preform before subsequent processing of the fibrous preform. The textile needle, feeder spool, and take up spool can be mounted to a common apparatus (e.g., a housing) such that the entire assembly is moveable together as a single unit.
