Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9811265A1] A process for preparing a continuous metal matrix composite tape. The process includes the steps of: providing a plurality of continuous metal matrix-coated fibers; providing a consolidating apparatus; providing a nonreactive environment around the consolidating means; advancing the plurality of continuous metal matrix-coated fibers into the alignment means to effect longitudinal alignment of the continuous metal matrix-coated fibers; and advancing the continuous metal matrix-coated fibers through the consolidating means to consolidate the continuous metal matrix-coated fibers into a metal matrix composite tape. The consolidating apparatus includes consolidating means for consolidating the continuous-metal coated fibers into a continuous metal matrix composite tape; means for providing a nonreactive environment around the consolidating means; and alignement means to effect longitudinal alignement of the continuous metal matrix-coated fibers.
