    [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of thermoplastic or thermosetting organic matrix continuous reinforcing composites. It relates more particularly to semi-products used in the manufacture of composite materials by automated fiber placement (AFP) or by filament winding, pultrusion, braiding, 3D printer. These composites are intended for "indirect" processes, which means that the entire organic matrix of the final composite is already on the semi-finished product. Once the ribbon is removed from the substrate, a preform is obtained which contains a certain percentage of porosity depending on the removal parameters. Finally, depending on the porosity rate targeted in the final piece and the quality of the preform, the consolidation step of the piece is performed in an autoclave or in an oven. In the aeronautics, oil and automotive fields, it becomes imperative to automate manufacturing processes in order to increase productivity, accuracy and therefore quality in order to remain competitive in these highly competitive sectors. In addition, these sectors require high quality products with generally high mechanical properties. The use of carbon fiber and in particular of unidirectional makes it possible to reach the specifications. However, the paramount parameter for these applications, once the specifications are fulfilled, is the quality. Indeed, in aeronautics, all structural parts are controlled at different stages of manufacture, the costs of non-qualities can then be very important. In addition, the price of high performance materials used, such as carbon and high Tg polymers, requires a very low waste rate to be competitive. Finally, to reduce machine downtime, the packaging of semi-products must be optimized, this includes the use of coils of great length containing no defects to be discarded at the time of removal. It is to meet these requirements that the semi-products according to the invention have been developed. This type of product is usually obtained in several steps that can be done separately or online. The first step is to obtain a unidirectional carbon sheet formed of several strands of carbon. Once the filaments are aligned and the surface weight of carbon adjusted, the sheet is immersed in a polymer dispersion in the liquid phase, it is the impregnation phase. Once the filaments loaded with polymer, the web is heated in order to melt the polymer and to evacuate the liquid phase. Finally, once the web consolidated, it is cut into ribbon width controlled, and then wound on reels. The major drawbacks of this method is that the cut-out causes filaments to protrude from the edges of the ribbon and, if the cut is not perfectly parallel to the filaments, the latter are not rigorously oriented in the longitudinal direction of the ribbon. EP 1 007 309 describes the production of continuous ribbons by impregnating strands of inorganic material, carbon or glass type, in a polymer bath with application of shear. This process is directed to the production of ribbon for the indirect process, with a polymer content ranging from 25 to 75% by weight Example 1 describes the passage of a wick of glass fibers in an impregnation bath , then in a die of rectangular section of dimensions 0.64 cm x 0.023 cm, to produce a ribbon having these dimensions, it is thus a process of impregnation by molten way whose speed of production is limited (a speed up to 1676 cm / min is mentioned), in which the impregnation depends directly on the viscosity of the polymer and which does not make it possible to work with all types of polymers, Moreover, this method does not make it possible to have coils of long length (greater than 100 m) without splicing or "splice", which may result in discontinuities in the reinforcement and thus potentially a decrease in mechanical properties, other disadvantages are the energy cost of removing water or solvent and ecological impact when using solvent. An object of the invention is to produce and provide a large length of reinforcement tape in one piece, without cutting and without splicing, which can reach the length of the wick of the supply reel, for example able to reach and exceed the 1000 meters, while having a very regular width characterized by a very small standard deviation and a good management of the distribution of the polymer. Another object of the invention is to produce and provide such a ribbon with a controlled rate of polymer. Another object of the invention is to produce and propose such a ribbon whose constituent filaments are strictly parallel to the longitudinal direction of the ribbon. An object of the invention is therefore to provide a method for making such a ribbon continuously. Another object of the invention is to produce and provide such a ribbon which is flexible, especially whose flexibility can easily be adjusted, and preferably which is non-brittle. Yet another object of the invention is to produce and propose such a ribbon at a competitive cost. These objectives are achieved by a continuous ribbon production process from a tow of filaments. The subject of the present invention is a process for manufacturing a ribbon of reinforcing filaments impregnated with a thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer matrix, which ribbon has a constant width throughout its length, in which the filaments extend in a parallel direction. to the length of the ribbon. This method can be applied to the treatment of a wick from a supply reel or, simultaneously and parallel to several (2 or more) wicks from as many feed coils. The supply coils can be in particular of a commonly used type, most commonly a cross reel (the wick is wound with a crank and crosswise) or possibly a reel with simple slicing. This method is characterized in that it comprises, for each wick (one or more wicks that can be processed simultaneously), the following manufacturing steps, from a wick supply coil to a ribbon storage spool: a) management of the tension between the supply reel and the storage reel, b) guiding the wick so as to obtain a wick moving in translation on a line coinciding with a longitudinal axis said machine axis extending up to close to the storage reel, c) optionally transverse spreading of the wick to a predetermined width greater than the width of the strip, d) management of the width of the wick, e) optionally traction of the wick, preferably by pinching or padding, f) grounding of the wick, g) deposition of the polymer in powder form on the wick, by electrostatic powdering, preferably with a polymer mass ratio of about 20% to approximately 75%, obtaining an impregnated tape, h) melting or softening of the polymer, i) calibration in width and thickness of the tape, j) optionally measuring the width and / or thickness of the tape, k) winding the ribbon on the storage spool. According to the invention, a wick is defined as consisting of a set of filaments (or fibers) and comprises from about 1,000 to about 80,000 filaments, preferably from about 3,000 to about 24,000 filaments. The locks used in the context of the invention are preferably made of a material chosen from carbon, ceramics, glasses, silicas, basalts, and aramids, or any other material used in the field of materials. composites, for example filaments or metal fibers, the filaments may be of natural or synthetic origin. Carbon is particularly preferred. Useful ceramics include silicon carbide and refractory oxides, for example, alumina and zirconia. The starting wick may be in a form already flattened or more or less round. Generally, the locks are presented in coiled bobbin flat bobbins. In a preferred embodiment, carbon wicks comprising from about 1,000 to about 80,000 filaments, preferably from about 3,000 to about 24,000 filaments, are used. The flat composite formed of the wick and the thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer is called a ribbon. At the end of manufacture, this ribbon is advantageously stored on a spool or support directly usable on the depositing robots. The winding can be of the wire-to-wire type (the ribbon is wound edge to edge, this mode is preferred) or of the crossed type. The constituent filaments of the wick or ribbon are preferably continuous. The filaments used generally have a substantially circular cross section (round filaments) or, preferably, substantially parallelepipedal or elliptical (flat filaments). The locks have irregular widths, as described in the table below, giving the width of the carbon locks according to the number of filaments and their title. Number of filaments Title (tex) Width variation of a wick 3K 200 1 to 3 mm 12K 445 2 to 5 mm 800 3 to 7 mm 24K 1000 5 to 10 mm 1600 5 to 12 mm Any type of wire can be used carbon. Preferably, it is possible to use High Resistance (HR) yarns whose tensile modulus is between 220 and 241 GPa and whose tensile tensile strength is between 2450 and 4830 MPa, Intermediate Module (IM) yarns whose modulus in traction is between 242 and 300 GPa and whose tensile breaking strength is between 3450 and 6400 MPa and High Module (HM) son whose tensile modulus is between 345 and 600 GPa and whose the tensile breaking stress is between 3450 and 5520 MPa (see ASM Handbook, ISBN 0-87170-703-9, ASM International 2001). In a), it is said that the voltage between the two coils is managed or adjusted, which means that the wick and the resulting continuous ribbon are kept energized between the supply coil and the storage coil. . The tension along the line and the process may vary according to the steps and devices that the wick and then the ribbon pass through. This tension can in particular be understood and vary between about 5 and about 50 N. The guide of the wick in step b) allows its precise alignment in the machine axis. The guiding step may in particular eliminate the slicing of the wick and / or eliminate the lateral movements associated with the unwinding of a wick wound crosswise on the supply reel. The guide may use in particular at least one set of at least two bars oriented so as to be able to bring the wick from the supply reel onto a line or path perfectly aligned with the machine axis (positioning in the axis includes positioning at a given height, which is that of the machine axis), at least until the cooling of the impregnated tape. One can use for example a set of two bars at 900. The first bar is parallel to the axis of the coil, oriented at 90 ° to the direction of travel of the wick, the latter sliding from left to right on the first bar because of slicing of the feed reel. This first bar allows to adjust the alignment of the wick in the rest of the process. It also makes it possible to force the strand to flatten, in particular, but not only, in the case of a round initial wick. Then, the wick goes into contact with the second bar located below the first, oriented at 90 ° relative to the previous and perpendicular to the machine axis, and which keeps the wick flat and adjust the height of the wick to following the process. According to a first modality, the wick has a width that is constantly greater than the width of the final ribbon.
    [0002] According to a second embodiment, the width of the wick is constantly or punctually equal, close to or less than the width of the final ribbon. In this case, provision is made for spreading the wick in step c). The wick brought back in the machine axis is spread transversely. The transverse spreading of the wick is wider than the nominal width of the ribbon. This step ensures that the wick, as it is submitted at this stage, always has a width greater than the nominal width of the final ribbon. To do this, it is possible to pass the wick in a docking device, comprising one or more elements of docking, such as bars of docking, which allow to spread the wick so that its width is always greater than the nominal width of the final ribbon. In particular, bars having a diameter of between about 10 mm and about 100 mm may be used. Preferably, the bars have a low abrasion surface, for example chromium, aluminum or ceramic. To obtain the desired width it is possible to heat the bars and / or to vibrate, which increases the spreading. The width of the wick is controlled or adjusted in d), which means that the width of the wick is reduced to a predetermined value by passing through a calibration device. In the case of the wick spread in c), the width is reduced to a predetermined value, in particular between the maximum spreading width and the nominal width of the final ribbon. To perform this width management, it is possible to pass the wick in a groove that calibrates the wick to the desired width. In particular, the width after spreading is from about 1.5 to about 4.5, for example from about 2 to about 3 times the nominal width of the final ribbon. For example, the calibration width is from about 10 mm to about 29 mm for a nominal ribbon of about 6.35 mm.
    [0003] Downstream of this stage, at a time of its course in which the wick is under high tension (there may be a tension of up to 5 kg per wick), it is preferable in step e) to pull the wick in order to maintain its width and to apply to the wick a forward movement towards the storage reel. This step can in particular be done using a device for gripping the wick and forcing it to move in the opposite direction to the supply reel. In particular, it is possible to use a scarf or similar device. The work done on the wick so far allows to work with initial wicks of very different qualities, having for example a variable width, to ensure a regular powder level and significantly improve the dispersion of width of the final ribbon. A step of measuring the width can be performed with a laser, as will be described later. The running speed of the wick and ribbon may be in particular between about 5 and about 50 m / min, especially between about 10 and about 40 m / min, typically between about 15 and about 35 m / min. This speed is adapted to the different steps, in particular to the dusting step. The grounding f) of the wick, to allow the electrostatic powdering, is advantageously carried out as close as possible to the dusting, therefore just upstream of this step. The g) powdering step determines the distribution of the matrix in the final ribbon and the fiber / matrix rate in the final composite product. Preferably, an electrostatic powdering method is used. The wick is grounded, in particular by passing in contact with one or more grounded bars, for example one or more bars 25 for docking. This dusting step comprises a first dry fluidization step. Fluidization involves passing a gas between small polymer particles. When the friction of the gas creates a force sufficient to compensate for the weight of all particles in the bed, it is said that the bed of particles is fluidized. The use of the dry fluidized bed makes it possible to deposit larger quantities of powder and to work with more powder compared to the pressure pots. One or more electrostatic powder spray guns or nozzles using the corona discharge principle is preferably used. This consists in applying a high potential difference between the tip of the gun and the part to be covered, which is connected to the ground. The electric field at the tip accelerates the electrons of the surrounding medium by the Coulomb force and ionizes the molecules present in the air. By avalanche effect, a self-sustaining process is obtained which makes the surrounding medium conductive.
    [0004] The powder particles passing through this ionized medium are charged by the accumulation of electrons on their surface. They are then driven by the electric field towards the wick which is connected to the mass. For strands of non-conductive filaments, the conductive surface is made before dusting by misting, metallization or use of a conductive polymer. In the context of this invention the deposition of the powder is via the use of one or two gun (s) on which a nozzle, preferably flat, is mounted. This type of installation creates a cloud of powder around the wick which is itself connected to the ground. The powder that is around the fiber is then attracted by the wick changing its path to create a thin layer of deposit all around the wick. Preferably, a gun is disposed above the wick, the other below. The guns are controlled via a central unit that allows the two guns to be independently driven. The parameters that can be set are: Injection pressure: it allows to convey the powder from the fluidized bed to the gun Dilution pressure: additional pressure that allows to dilute the powder in the pipe that leads to the gun Voltage and intensity These two parameters make it possible to control the voltage and the intensity released at the cathode. The adjustment of these parameters makes it possible to adjust the rate of powder deposited on the fiber and the regularity of the deposit. The settings are to be adapted for each wick / die pair. Once the powder has been deposited on the wire, it is then referred to as ribbon, which therefore consists of a fibrous reinforcement oriented in the longitudinal direction impregnated with a polymeric matrix. The length of a ribbon spool may be equal to or substantially equal to the spool of which the thread is issued, with no limit on the length of the thread.
    [0005] The mass ratio of the polymeric matrix applied to the spread sliver may in particular be between about 20% and about 75%, especially between about 20% and about 50% and more particularly between about 30% and about 40%. This particularly high rate makes it possible to use the ribbon in the indirect process. This rate can reach important values, greater than 30 or 40 (3/0, while being supple and well consolidated, as will be seen below.) At the stage of impregnation of the wick, the polymer which impregnates the fiber becomes is in the form of a powder whose grains have a diameter in particular of between approximately 10 μm and approximately 300 μm and preferably between approximately 30 μm and approximately 200 μm. The process can be applied to any type of fluidizable powder having a softening point allowing for adhesion to the wick during powdering Among these powders, mention may be made more particularly of the following thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers: polyamides (in particular PA6, PAI2, PAU, PA6.6, PA 6.10, PA 6.12), copolyamides (CoPA ), polyamide-block ether or ester (PEBAX, PEBA), polyphthalamides (PPA), polyesters (especially polyethylene terephthalate-PET-, polybutylene terephthalate-PBT-), copolyesters (CoPE), polyurethanes thermoplastics (TPU), polyacetals (POM, ...), polyolefins (especially PP, HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE), polyethersulfones (PES), polysulfones (PSU, etc.), polyphenylenesulfones (PPSU, ...), polyetheretherketones (PEEK), polyetherketoneketone (PEKK), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polyetherimides (PEI), thermoplastic polyimides, liquid crystal polymers (LCP), phenoxys, block copolymers such as styrene-butadiene-methylmethacrylate (SBM) copolymers, methylmethacrylate-butyl-methylmethacrylate acrylate (MAM) copolymers and mixtures thereof, epoxy, bismaleimide and phenolic polymers. According to one characteristic of the invention, the thermoplastic material is a thermoplastic material. In the first place, it may be a high performance thermoplastic material that is to say having a melting point and / or a transformation temperature of greater than or equal to 280 ° C. It can be chosen in particular from PEEK, PPS, PEKK, PEI, or a mixture of at least two of them. The invention is compatible with the use of thermosetting polymers in powder form having a softening temperature lower than their crosslinking temperature. This type of powder is obtained by uncrosslinked thermosetting polymer formulation and provides a ribbon with a non-crosslinked thermosetting polymer content of between 20% and 75%. This tape can then be used in a method of automated fiber placement or filament winding, where the crosslinking will be activated once the crosslinking temperature reached. This tape impregnated with thermosetting polymer makes it possible to produce composite parts without an injection or infusion step after placement of the ribbon and also allows storage of unlimited duration at ambient temperature. In step h), the melting or softening of the powder can in particular be carried out by passing through one or more, especially 2 ovens, preferably short or medium infrared ovens, just after the dusting step. The regulation of the furnace (s) is preferably in power for a better stability of the process. Again, the settings are to be adapted for each pair wick / matrix but also depending on the speed of travel and the target powder rate. The temperature applied to the polymer is in any case greater than its melting point (e.g. for semi-crystalline polymers) or sufficient to pass the powdery polymer in the viscous state for impregnation. For PEEK, the temperature may especially be between 300 and 450 ° C., more particularly between 350 and 450 ° C.
    [0006] Calibration of the ribbon in step i) at a target width is a decisive feature since, for example, variations in width result in non-qualities at the time of automated deposition of the ribbon by the deposition robots to form. Too small a width generates "gap" while a too large width generates "overlap" and jams at the deposition head. To obtain a dispersion in low width it is necessary to have a perfect alignment of the wire before calendering, which is ensured throughout the process and at the calibration stage. It is thus possible, upstream of the melting, an alignment of the ribbon to coincide with the machine axis and in particular with the calibration device located downstream.
    [0007] One can thus use a plurality of bars, particularly oblique. Preferably, in step i), the ribbon can be calendered. This calendering can allow alignment on the machine axis or contribute to it. In particular, the calendering makes it possible to ensure the impregnation of the wick by the thermoplastic or thermosetting material, which is still in the molten state. Preferably the calender is cooled. The temperature of the material at this stage may allow it to be sufficiently fluid to be shaped. The calendering can be achieved by passing the ribbon between at least two cooled rollers whose pressure and temperature can be regulated. In this device, the calendering allows to penetrate more or less the matrix in the ribbon but also, possibly, to spread the ribbon.
    [0008] The impregnation rate accounts for the distribution of the matrix in the transverse direction of the ribbon. A low impregnation rate amounts to having, according to one embodiment, a hollow strip with a distribution of the polymer only at the periphery of the wick (eg carbon), thus forming a polymer sheath (or continuous layer) which protects the filaments and guarantees a very high flexibility to the ribbon. In other words, there is a reduced proportion of filaments taken from the polymeric matrix. In this embodiment, the calender pressure is preferably less than 1 bar, typically it is between about 0.1 and about 0.9 bar, especially between about 0.1 and about 0.6 bar. This type of product is particularly interesting for the draping of complex shapes with very small radii of curvature.
    [0009] On the contrary, a high impregnation rate will correspond, in another embodiment, to a ribbon where the polymer is distributed substantially uniformly between the filaments (e.g., carbon) in the width and thickness direction. In this case, the polymer protects the filaments of the ribbon with a sheath, but it does not necessarily form a continuous outer layer as in the previous case. However, there is a high proportion of filaments taken from the polymer matrix. In this embodiment, the calender pressure is preferably greater than or equal to 1 bar, typically it is between about 1 and about 4 bar. By increasing the impregnation rate, it prevents the slippage of the filaments against each other, which decreases the flexibility thereof. According to the invention, the temperature parameter can be continuously monitored by the temperature measurement, for example using an infrared pyrometer, at the outlet of the oven and / or before calendering. The calendering ensures a first calibration, in particular in thickness, of the ribbon. Step i) may comprise a width calibration of the ribbon by passing through a transverse calibration device or width, or calibration both width and thickness. Preferably, step i) comprises, on the one hand, the calendering and, on the other hand, the calibration in width, or in width and in thickness. Preferably, one caliber both in the transverse direction and in thickness. In particular, it is possible to calibrate using at least two calibration forms, in particular grooves and antagonists. The calibration is advantageously set to the desired nominal width for the ribbon. Various embodiments will be described later.
    [0010] The cooling takes place gradually between the exit of the oven and the winding. It is not essential to provide a cooling device. It has been seen that the calender at calibration step i) is performed at a sufficient temperature, e.g., between the glass transition temperature and the melting point of the semicrystalline polymer. Before winding, the temperature reached is such that the polymer is no longer deformable, for example it is less than the glass transition temperature Tg of the semicrystalline polymer. The width and / or thickness of the tape can be measured in j) continuously, preferably with its standard deviation, during the manufacture of the tape using the following method. Downstream of its calibration and upstream of its reel storage, spot measurements of width and / or thickness are carried out every x cm (for example every 50 cm or every 1 meter) with the aid of a Laser, the data is processed by a computer processing unit or a computer collecting the width values and calculating the standard deviation. Advantageously used a laser formed of a transmitter emitting a line of laser light and a receiver having a line of receptor cells. The transmitter is placed on one side of the ribbon, facing one of its flat faces if the width is measured. The receiver is placed on the other side of the ribbon, facing its other flat face always for width measurement. The shadow of the ribbon projected on the receiver makes it possible to know the width (or the thickness) with a great precision. The winding in step k) consists in winding the ribbon onto supports that are preferably compatible with automated dispensing robots. It can be done in two different ways: in tension or in speed. For the voltage winding, the spindle carrying the storage spool adapts its speed of rotation according to the tension information of the ribbon, for example raised by a dancer arm. This type of winding makes it possible to have a very clean winding and does not require speed control with the device, such as the scarf, which tows the ribbon at the beginning of the line. In the case of a speed winding, the speed of the spindle is entered in setpoint, it is then necessary to slave the winder and the drive device such as the scarf to avoid any problem of tension due to the speed difference. between the two devices. Voltage winding is preferred. The winding and thus the speed of production of the tape may be between about 5 and about 50 m / min, especially between about 10 and about 40 m / min, typically between about 15 and about 35 m / min.
    [0011] The method described in the invention makes it possible to produce a ribbon both from a single lock and from several (2 or more) locks. In one embodiment, the surface weight of carbon is increased. For this, at least two, preferably two, carbon ribbons are superimposed to obtain a given mass per unit area. For example, two 12K 800tex carbon ribbons calibrated at 6.35 mm are superimposed in order to obtain a mass per unit area of 2 x 126 = 252 g / m2. The combination of the two son can be done before dusting at the level of the spreading or after dusting, once the polymer melted. In both cases it is necessary to reproduce the unwinding and guiding elements described earlier. Then, in the first case, the mixture of the filaments of the two threads is made throughout the jams used to spread the threads. The rest of the line is not changed, only the setting of the electrostatic powder and the power of the furnaces must be adjusted. In the case where the assembly is carried out after powdering, the guiding of the two powdered wires must be adapted before calibration, the remainder of the line remaining unchanged. Another subject of the invention is the ribbon that can be produced by the method of the invention. According to the invention, a continuous reinforcing ribbon formed of unidirectional inorganic material filaments, substantially uniformly coated and / or substantially impregnated with a core of a thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer at a mass ratio of between about 20% and about 75 is produced. %, in particular between about 20% and about 50% and more particularly between about 30% and about 40%, of predetermined constant width and controlled, with preferably a standard deviation of between 0.02 and 0.15 mm, preferably between 0.02 and 0.05 (inclusive), over a single piece length (without splice) greater than or equal to 100, 500, 1000 or 5000 m, or more. This standard deviation is actually the entire length of ribbon produced from a continuous feed wick length. From a reel of x meters of wick, a ribbon of substantially equal length is produced with the standard width and standard deviation. This standard deviation is typically measured as described above by laser measurement. The ribbon is also continuous throughout its length, without cutting filament and in one piece, ie without splice or "splice". Its component filaments are substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the ribbon (or perfectly aligned in the longitudinal direction). This product is intended for indirect processes for making composite parts from one or more tapes. The ribbon has a constant width, which may be in particular between about 2 mm and about 75 mm and more particularly between about 5 mm and about 10 mm. The content of thermoplastic or thermosetting material can reach important values, greater than 30 or 40 (3/0, while being supple and well consolidated, as will be seen below.) The standard deviation is calculated using the following formula : ax = with n = number of measurements; = average value of x; xi = value of x for n = i The width of the tape can be measured with its standard deviation continuously during the manufacture of the tape using the method described above, which makes it possible to obtain the standard deviation over the total length of the ribbon or a fraction.Outside the production line, to characterize a ribbon according to the invention, it is possible to proceed in the same manner, by unrolling the ribbon and making spot width measurements, for example every 1 m by the laser measurement The invention also relates to a consolidated continuous ribbon formed of unidirectional inorganic material filaments, preferably of carbon, uniformly coated and / or impregnated in the core of a thermoplastic or thermosetting polymer, comprising a polymer content of between about 20% and about 75%, especially between about 20 and about 50% by weight and preferably between about 30% and about 40%. % by weight, based on the weight of the ribbon, and having a constant width with a standard deviation of between 0.02 and 0.15 mm, preferably between 0.02 and 0.05 mm (inclusive). The width of this tape may be in particular between about 2 mm and about 75 mm and more particularly between about 5 mm and about 10 mm. In one embodiment, the ribbon has an average width in the specification of 6.35 mm ± 0.15 mm with a standard deviation of 0.02 to 0.05 mm, preferably a length of a single piece. , that of the starting wick, especially greater than or equal to 100, 500, 1000 or 5000 m. For example, it is possible to obtain, for example, a ribbon of average width 6.35 mm with a standard deviation of between 0.02 and 0.05 mm. In a first embodiment, the tape is impregnated and consolidated at the periphery, including on its two longitudinal edges (or longitudinal edges), the thermoplastic or thermosetting material impregnating the filaments at the periphery forming a substantially continuous sheath, including the long ribbon edges. Preferably, this tape has a particular surface state, corresponding to the fact that it is completely or mostly coated with molten or softened polymer which substantially forms a polymer continuum across the ribbon in the direction of the width and in the direction of the length, as illustrated by way of example in Figure 6. The ribbon comprises a certain proportion of non-impregnated filaments of polymer (taken in the polymer) in its interior. This proportion can in particular represent from about 20, 25 or 30 to about 50% of the total of the ribbon filaments (this can be determined by analysis of the impregnated and non-impregnated surfaces by image processing of sections with adequate magnification). This ribbon is called hollow.
    [0012] In a second embodiment, the tape is impregnated and substantially core-bound, i.e., it comprises a high proportion of polymer-impregnated filaments within it. This proportion can in particular represent from about 80 to about 100% of the total of the ribbon filaments. Preferably, this ribbon has a particular surface condition, corresponding to the fact that it is partly covered with molten or softened polymer, forming discontinuous phases across the ribbon in the direction of its width and in the direction of its length, as illustrated by way of example in Figure 7. This tape is said impregnated to heart. According to one embodiment, the proportion of filaments taken in the polymer is between 80 (3/0 and 99, 98, 97, 96, 95 or 90%.)

    [0016] The numeral 1 denotes a wick coil 2, for example a wick of carbon filaments. This coil is mounted on a spindle (not shown), provided with an adjustable brake. A first bar 3 is parallel to the axis of the coil 1 and oriented 900 relative to the direction of travel of the wick 2, the latter sliding from left to right on the first bar because of the slicing of the supply reel 2. Then, a second bar 4 is located below the first, oriented at 90 ° relative to the previous and perpendicular to the machine axis. A series of seven docking bars is shown. Four of them referenced 5 are arranged so that the wick tangents to their upper part, the other three referenced 6 being placed below the machine axis and causing the wick to tangent their lower part by applying a constraint such as that the wick is spread in width. A calibration device 7 has a groove through which the wick passes, which is calibrated to the desired width. A scarf 8 is disposed later, this scarf being designed to pinch the wick 2 and force it to move in the opposite direction to the supply reel. A laser device for measuring the width of the wick is shown under 9. Two metal bars 10 and 11 connected to the ground are in contact for one, 10, of the lower face of the wick, for the other, 11, from its upper face. These bars apply some pressure on the wick.
    [0017] At 12, there is shown an electrostatic powdering unit comprising two powdering guns 13, fed with fluidized polymer powder from a fluidization device (not shown). One of the guns has its spray nozzle oriented towards one side of the wick, the other toward the other side of the wick. The unit is controllable to ensure the continuous removal of a predetermined amount of thermoplastic or thermosetting material on the wick 2 which scrolls inside the enclosure. The numeral 14 designates two infrared furnaces, preferably short or medium, located one behind the other, which are controlled by temperature and this control is power. The wick impregnated with molten polymer then passes into a cooled calender. The shell has two rollers and a device for adjusting the pressure exerted by the rollers on the wick which passes between them. The wick then passes into a calibration device 16 which will be described with reference to FIGS. 2-4. A Laser Wavelength Measuring Device is shown at 17, which is connected to a computer or processor for recording the width and calculating the standard deviation. The device performs punctual measurements, at regular intervals, according to the desire of the user. At the stage of passage in front of the laser device, the ribbon 18 itself is formed. The ribbon is then taken over by a ribbon winding device, comprising two return rollers 19 and 20 and a storage spool 21 mounted on a spindle (not shown) rotated.
    [0018] According to an important characteristic, the active surfaces (in contact with the wick or ribbon) of the elements 4, 5, 7, 8, 14, 15, and 16 are perfectly aligned on the machine axis, so that the wick, then the ribbon when it is formed, does not undergo lateral movement or in sensible height. FIG. 2 shows a first embodiment of a calibration device that can be used, notably as a device 16 in the installation of FIG. 1. It comprises a plate 22 hollowed out of a groove 23 formed of a part flared 24 and a straight portion 25. The width of the groove is equal to the width of the ribbon to produce. The numeral 26 denotes a wheel having a planar surface of revolution slightly smaller in width than that of the rectilinear portion 25 of the groove in which it is inserted in part. In operation, it is understood that the wick passes to the bottom of the groove 23 and the caster comes to apply a pressure on it inside the portion 25 of the groove 23. A device (not shown), for example a vernier, allows to perform this operation. This adjusts the pressure on the wick. In Figure 3, there is the same plate 22. In place of the wheel 26, there is downstream of the plate, a wheel 27 having a groove 28 peripheral flat bottom, whose width is equal to the width of the ribbon to produce. In operation, it is understood that the wick 2 passes to the bottom of the groove 23, then into the groove 28 of the roller 27, which comes to apply pressure on it. A device, for example vernier, not shown, allows to position the flat bottom of the groove in height relative to the machine axis to adjust the pressure exerted on the wick.
    [0019] In Figure 4, a succession of three rollers 29 is used, each having a flat bottom peripheral groove 30 whose width is equal to the width of the ribbon to be produced. The first and third wheels are placed above the machine axis, the second below. In operation, it is understood that the wick 2 passes in contact with the bottoms of the grooves 30, in the lower part of the first wheel, then in the upper part of the second, and finally in the lower part of the third. A device, for example a vernier, not shown, makes it possible to position the flat bottom of the grooves in height with respect to the machine axis in order to adjust the pressure exerted on the bit. EXAMPLE 1 Obtaining a Carbon / PEEK Tape with a Polymer Mass Content of 34% and a 6.35 mm Width Using the Installation of FIG.
    [0020] We start with a flat wick of HR HTS45 E23 carbon filaments of Toho Tenax, with a title between 810 tex and 780 tex, width of wick varying between 3 and 7 mm, wound crosswise. PEEK powder 150PB from Victrex, particle size dlc, = 30 μm, d50 = 60 μm, d90 = 100 μm.
    [0021] The carbon fiber wick is heated before spreading to a width of between 8 mm and 12 mm by loading, at a post-loading tension of between 4.5 kg and 2.5 kg. The fibers then pass through a groove 10 mm wide, then into the scarf that pulls the fiber. Before entering the dust box, the fiber passes into contact with two grounded bars.
    [0022] The dusting step is carried out using a SAMES installation comprising a fluidization tank, 2 guns and a control unit. To obtain the target powder rate, a single gun is used, its settings are shown in the following table: 35 Parameter Adjustment Voltage (kV) 70 Current (1..1A) 70 Injection pressure 12 Dilution pressure 5 Pressure the fluidization tank is set at 2 bars, which allows a uniform and regular fluidization regime. Then, the polymer is melted by passing the ribbon under two SOPARA infrared ribbon radials (IR average) set between 50% and 70% of their power. This is IRR radians brand SOPARA 75cm length and a power of 2.3kW each. Calibration is carried out by first calendering the ribbon and then passing it through a groove with a nominal width of 6.35 mm +/- 0.05 mm. 1.0 The measurement of the width is performed by a Mike Model 911 LASER (measurement accuracy of 0.003 m), the data collected every 1 m during the production of a 1000 m reel is shown in Figure 8. The average width ribbon is 6.37 mm with a standard deviation of 0.04 mm. The winding is carried out in tension, at a speed of between 15 m / min and 15 m / min with a SAHM winder. Figure 6 is a schematic view of the surface of the ribbons observed at 0.6x3 magnification binocular magnification. The reference numeral 104 designates the polymer coating, relatively continuous, and leaving the carbon filaments appear on discrete areas designated by the numerals 105. Example 2: Obtaining a carbon / PEEK tape with a mass ratio of polymer 34% and width 6.35 mm using the installation of Figure 1.

PEEK powder 150PB from Victrex, particle size d10 = 30 μm, d50 = 60 μm, d90 = 25% The carbon fiber wick is heated before spreading it to a width of between 5 mm and 8 mm by loading, under a tension after loading between 4.5 kg and 2.5 kg. The fibers then pass into a throat 8 mm wide, then into the scarf that pulls the fiber. Before entering the dust booth the fiber 30 passes in contact with two bars connected to the ground. The dusting step is carried out as in Example 1. The pressure of the fluidization tank is set at 2 bars, which makes it possible to have a uniform and regular fluidization regime. Then, the polymer is melted by passing the ribbon under the two infrared radials SOPARA lamp (length of 75 cm and a power of 3 kW each), set between 50% and 70% of their power. Calibration is carried out by first calendering the ribbon and then passing it through a groove with a nominal width of 6.35 mm +/- 0.05 mm. The measurement of the width is performed by the Mike LASER, as in Example 1, the data collected every 1 m during the production of a 150 m coil are shown in Figure 9. The average width is 6, 16 mm with a standard deviation of 0.13 mm.
    [0023] The winding takes place in tension, at a speed between 5 m / min and 20 m / min with a SAHM winder. Figure 7 is a schematic view of the surface of the ribbons observed with a 0.6x3 magnification binocular magnifier. The reference numeral 106 denotes the carbon filaments and this time, the polymer remained on the surface does not form a quasi-continuous coating, but discrete areas 107. Compared to Figures 6 and 7, Figure 5 shows what is obtained by the standard impregnation process by immersion in a bath. Reference numeral 101 denotes continuous zones of polymer at the surface, reference numeral 102 denotes discrete clusters of polymer and reference numeral 103 denotes bare filaments.
    [0024] Example 3: Production of a composite article An Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) robot is programmed to deposit the ribbon according to Example 1 or Example 2 on a support, until forming the draft of the part to be manufactured. The robot places the ribbon edge to edge to form a fold, then superimposes another fold on the previous one, the superposition can be done according to one or angle (s) adapted (s), according to the production program of the draft . The blank formed is then placed according to a first sub-example in an oven and according to a second sub-example in an autoclave. The consolidation is completed and the consolidated composite part is obtained. Composite pieces were successfully formed from ribbon according to Example 1.
