Composite Joining Methods: Types and Key Considerations
2025-09-01
Overview Composite joining technology is a critical yet relatively weak link in the design and manufacturing of composite structures. Due to the anisotropy, brittleness, and low interlaminar strength of composites, their joining design differs significantly from metallic structures and requires special attention. The main joining methods can be categorized into three groups: 1. Mechanical Joining ...
