Abstract: As a kind of out-of-autoclave process, moulding process which has advantages of low energy consumption, short process cycle, fine process window and high dimensional accuracy,is the development trend of low-cost process for high-performance thermoplastic composite. Mould design, prepreg laying and process window optimizion are studied in order to obtain thickness control methods for thermoplastic plate. Considering above factors, CF/PPS plate is manufactured and thickness of the plate are tested by special measuring tool. It is shown that dimensional accuracy of CF/PPS plate is fine and thickness uniformity is controlled within ±5.7%. This result will provide technical support for design and manufacturing of thermoplastic plate, and lay the foundation for moulding process application on high-performance thermoplastic product.
