I must be a good thread killer...
This is how the titanium-capped composite main blades are made. I'm so very disappointed that hand lamination is still the best we can manage at the moment, albeit with laser projection and other best practices used I'm sure.
I heard recently that Audi, famous for their ULTRA lightweight approach, is already shifting focus away from the traditional CFRP for future development. There is still some ways to go before composites can be widely applied in everyday-car level. Or, we may not get there at all.
