Armored Vehicle Launch Bridge(AVLB)
• Goal of Project:– Manufacture
composite panels for an AVLB
Armored Vehicle Launch Bridge(AVLB)
What is an AVLB?
• Armored Vehicle Launch Bridge• A folding bridge that is attached to a 2-man
armored carrier.
AVLB Uses
• Launches a bridge that troops, tanks, and army vehicles can use to pass over a small river or creek.
• Facilitates transport of troops, tanks, and materials to a location in a time of battle.
Where is the AVLB Used?
• The AVLB is used mostly in Europe, as many small lakes and rivers interfere with army transports and/or battle plans.
• Can be used in any location where a small river needs to be crossed.
How the AVLB Works
Manufacturing Aspects / Approach
• Materials:– List, BOM
• Techniques– specify necessary steps
– Flow diagram
– specify additional tooling and/material
Possible Problems & other consideration
• The depression of the panel skin.
• Equal pressure during consolidation
• Mandrel extraction • Cost and process
constraints
Important
• Process for Manufacturing
• Identify all equipment used in manufacturing steps– Purpose of use
– Equipment Specs.
• Mill
