Kitting is the process of cutting and collating uncured fiber material for a composite component before the actual layup process. A sheeter is an automated cutting system used to cut sheets of fiber material. The desired length of material is input into a computer and the sheeter cuts the material to that length.
Learning Objectives- Define kitting
- Define a controlled contamination area
- List the personal protective equipment used when kitting with a sheeter
- List the components of a sheeter
- Describe the process of kitting with a sheeter

Kitting is the process of cutting and collating uncured fiber material for a composite component before the actual layup process. An automated cutting machine is a cutting system used to cut shapes out of fiber material. A knife moves across the fiber material cutting the shapes. The movements of the knife are controlled by the computer.
