1 INTRODUCTION GMI AERO supplies nd engineers very flexile heting lnkets suitle to het composite prt for repir onding opertions. The chllenge is to get flexiility nd temperture homogeneity performnces to chieve pproprite curing of the resin lid on the whole ptch. Our lnkets meet these specifictions together with long life durtion. To nswer to vrious expressions of needs nd configurtions, GMI hs een led to design vriety of fmilies of lnkets tht differ in terms of size geometry, electricl circuit design, dpttion to shpes, specifictions to meet constrints of the use environment... A vriety of items ccording to dimensions re on stock ut ll dimensions cn e ordered specificlly. Shped items cn lso e designed nd mnufctured. All our lnkets re engineered to meet the temperture control specifictions of our ANITA Bonding Consoles. Figure 1: VARIOUS SHAPE DESIGN IS POSSIBLE 2 CLASSES OF BLANKETS PER APPLICATIONS: REPAIR OR FABRICATION Due to the vriety of ctegories of products treted y GMI, we give here list of clsses of heting lnkets designed nd produced ccording to their use: 1. For hot onding of composite repir processes 2. For generl het ppliction whenever it is it useful to improve productivity y heting resin, selnt,... 3. For heting prts in composite mnufcturing process: heting moulds, structures,... We will del here in this rochure only with the heting lnkets of the ullet 1. Consult us for other pplictions. For this clss of products for hot onding of composite repir processes, we cn lso consider severl su-clsses: 1. Composite repir with epoxy resins t mximum 180 C 2. Composite repir with mi resins t 275 C. For the composite repir t 180 C we develop silicone fmily lnkets with vriety of design nd Emil: gmi@gmi-ero.com - We : www.gmi-ero.com 3

4 STANDARD HEATING BLANKETS FOR CURING RESINS AT 180 C MAX The following rochure specifictions pply only to this clss of products These lnkets re connectle directly to our onders of the fmily Anit exclusively types: NG, OT,ES, EZ The following specifictions pply 4-1 GENERAL BASIC SPECIFICATIONS FOR STANDARD BLANKETS Silicone ruer mde heters, Flexile silicone with glss fier weve for etter resistnce to rsion. The dimensions cn e ordered in inch or cm, Mximum rising temperture: 245 C (473 F), Thickness: 1.4 mm (0.55 inch.) Voltge to e specified t the order : 230 or 120 Volts AC monophse Led output in t externl to the heting re unless specified differently, Led length: 500 mm (20 in);, unless specified differently Leds re mounted with connector stndrd for connection to ANITA controller cles (unless ordered differently) Wttge: the wttge depends of the specific needs of the ppliction plnned y the customer. However, stndrd lnkets for the use with n ANITA Bonding Console is s follows: the mximum wttge per surfce unity (density) is usully etween 0,6 to 0,7 wtts /squre centimeter Shpe, nd electricl zones; we mnufcture stndrd lnkets ccording to rectngulr, or round design. Ovl heting lnkets re lso ville. Some specific fetures my pply; consult us. The numer of zones for stndrd lnkets is of 1 or 2. Other possiilities of more thn 2 zones occur t the request of the customer. The position of the led output (T) is in generl in the middle of the smll side unless required differently Delivery of ech lnket with seril numer; file records of initil specs re kept in house for 5 yers; tg is ttched to the lnket tht specified P/N, S/N, Voltge, nd ntive ohmic resistnce vlue per zone. Test ccording to Boeing specs per therml crtogrphy under request ; chrge is pplied 4-2 BOEING SPECIFICATIONS Boeing specifies for its own use, lnkets ccording to certin specifictions deling with temperture distriution. These performnces cn only e chieved if the resistnce wire is routed with mximum of density nd regulrity. GMI mnufctures its lnkets to meet this specifiction recommendtion.

4-3 ELECTRICAL ZONING Zoning my e dvised when using lrge lnket. To get etter temperture homogeneity performnces, it cn e interesting to divide the surfce in two or more zones tht will e controlled in temperture. The Anit console llows this feture nd the user is invited to tke enefit of it when deling with lrge surfce or structures with vriility of thicknesses. 4-3.1 DESIGN OF BLANKETS IN 1 ZONE Two models re possile ccording to the position of the T: SS, T in the middle of the smll side LS, T in the middle of the lrge side The model SS is the stndrd model. If you do not specify differently, your lnket s ordered will e with t in the middle of the smll side.

4-4 DESIGN OF 2 ZONE BLANKETS Figure 4: Two zone lnket illustrtion There re 2 usul design models of 2 zone heting lnkets. The first cse where the two heting zones re prllel, side y side (see picture ove) nd sketch elow for led positioning choice. The second cse where one zone is internl to the other. The first design is pproprite for long rectngulr lnkets. The second one my e used for lrge squre surfces to het lrge uniform structures. The two zones my e equl in surfces or ccording to specific request from customer. One clssicl ppliction corresponds to the het of leding edges, verticl surfces,...
