Summary:The processing cost of fibre reinforced plastic being 50% of the whole manufacturing cost, it is suggested that the methods of processing FRP should be well developed. Various processing methods actually applied in America and Europe are summarized, e.g., the adoption of lay-up machines, cutting machines, robots, etc. The machines used for processing, as well as testing equipment, are becoming increasingly computerized for efficient manufacturing; the design of a fully automated factory is presented. 20 ref.--M.L.
