Automated fibre braiding facility for multifunctional structural materials: This project seeks to establish an Australian automated braiding facility to create innovative fibrous materials with multiple functionalities. This facility aims to provide Australian researchers with the capabilities of high-speed, precision and versatility to radially braid single or multiple filament types including carbon, metal, optical, natural, bio-inspired and bio-compatible fibres and filaments to create new materials with unique functional properties. The facility would be able to braid over multiple length scales spanning nanofibres to millimetre-sized filaments to create novel materials and shapes not possible using other processing techniques. Expected applications include new materials for building, self-healing, human protection and biomedicine.

多功能结构材料自动化纤维编织设备： 该项目旨在建立澳大利亚自动化编织设施，以创造具有多种功能的创新纤维材料。该设施旨在为澳大利亚研究人员提供高速、精确和多功能的能力，以径向编织单根或多根长丝类型，包括碳、金属、光学、天然、仿生和生物相容性纤维和长丝，以创造新材料独特的功能特性。该设施将能够在从纳米纤维到毫米尺寸的细丝的多个长度范围内进行编织，以创造出使用其他加工技术无法实现的新颖材料和形状。预期的应用包括用于建筑、自愈、人体保护和生物医学的新材料。
