METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING HONEYCOMB PANEL WITH SPECIFIED POSITIONING OF SUPPORT NODES Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC B32B37/00 

FIELD: space equipment.

SUBSTANCE: method for manufacturing spacecraft panels. Creating a method for manufacturing a honeycomb panel, which increases the accuracy of machining of the holes of the honeycomb panel, which leads to improved quality and reliability of the manufactured product and a reduction in the production time of the honeycomb panel. The method for manufacturing a honeycomb panel with a given positioning of support units is that the panels are assembled using at least two support units with service pins to fix the relative position of the skins and honeycomb core during gluing. Service pins are dismantled after gluing the panel. The coordinate centers of two support nodes are used as base points for constructing a coordinate system, which is a common design and production basis for machining holes in a honeycomb panel intended for installing support nodes.

EFFECT: increasing the positioning accuracy of the honeycomb panel support nodes through the use of a coordinate system, one of the axes of which passes through the centers of two support nodes, and the construction of a common design and production basis for further mechanical processing of the honeycomb panel, for installation of the remaining support nodes.
