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.

多功能结构材料的自动化纤维编织设施： 该项目旨在建立澳大利亚自动编织设施，以创建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，精度和多功能性的功能，包括径向编织的单丝或多种细丝类型，包括碳，金属，光学，天然，自然，生物启发和生物兼容的纤维以及生物兼容的纤维，以及创建具有独特功能特性的新材料。该设施将能够在跨纳米纤维的多个长度上编织到毫米大小的细丝，以创建新颖的材料和形状，不可能使用其他处理技术。预期的应用包括用于建筑，自我修复，人类保护和生物医学的新材料。
