A new composite robot performs an elaborate “dance” as it moves up and down a 40-foot track releasing carbon fibers from 16 spools and placing them in intricate patterns to make composite parts for space vehicles. The robotic fiber placement system resides in the Composites Technology Center that is part of NASA’s National Center for Advanced Manufacturing at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. http://www.nasa.gov/centers/marshall/news/news/releases/2015/robotic-manufacturing-system-will-build-biggest-composite-rocket-parts-ever-made.html (NASA/MSFC video)
