/ XPlace²

Modular and flexible AFP head design

The concept.

The XPlace² automated fibre placement head has been designed to provide maximum flexibility in terms of material type, material configuration and heating systems.
The modular concept enables the configuration of the head for specific projects and can be upgraded as needed.
