That must be sustained if if rates that high from you. Not sure how many days I will do there, it's poor timing for extended road trip being a week before the kids get out of school.
Yep that's what I expected when they said automated. Using a projector and calling that automation is a stretch, marketing wank at best. It didn't reduce human labour, it would help in accuracy no question about that, but just like using a jig of any type it's not automation.
This wouldn't work for bikes. The distribution of thermoset and fiber would be a mess. This is why they use tapes, the single layer of tape can be made to have a consistent and even distribution of thermoset and fiber.
Just jump in here and add to the pile on RR.

He could have made SC employee owned, continued to have some say in the BOD and still lived well.
Usually some grade of nylon. There is some PA6 nylon tapes listed there in the auction.
Who is going to buy the pair of kids bikes?

Yeah after digging around in the pictures I figured out the projector.
I wonder if they were doing layup outside the mold then able to drop it into mold before going into the heated press. With pre-preg they usually need to do all lay-up into a mold so the number of molds will be a limiting...
I was looking for the damn robots...
I should go read their patent.
Looking at those images of the line I'd guess the line feeders trim a specific length of the needed tape and the projector shows the manual operator exactly where to put it. Next precut tape next image showing application...
I looked through much of the listing but not all of it. I thought there was talk of them using tape laying robotics for doing their layups and I didn't see that on there.
Who was it that wanted to restart GG themselves?
Here's the auction with a bunch of their machinery.

Questionable on getting 170 outta 55 stroke.
I feel dirty getting just 160mm out of 55mm stroke but still able to hit the magical 3.0ish starting leverage rate.
