Abstract: The automatic laying equipment is widely used in the automatic forming of composite materials with the characteristics of high efficiency, high speed and low waste rate. Starting from the basic framework, this paper introduces the existing automatic tape laying machine and fiber laying machine, analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of various laying equipment, and summarizes the scope of laying parts for each laying equipment. At last, the possibility and efficiency of automatic laying equipment in future are prospected from two aspects of improving production efficiency and reducing cost.

Key words: advanced composite, automated tape-laying, automatic fiber-laying, laying equipment
