DFM Tips
- 1Define ply orientation schedule early—quasi-isotropic [0/45/90/-45]s is a safe default for structural parts.
- 2Avoid sharp internal radii under 3mm to prevent ply bridging and resin-rich pockets.
- 3Design inserts and hard points with metal bushings co-cured into the laminate for bolt loads.
- 4Specify trim allowances of 3–5mm beyond net shape for CNC trim tool access.
