ABSTRACT:
A compliant tape dispensing and compacting head and method by which tape is dispensed and compacted onto a contoured surface. Tape is dispensed from a plurality of tape supply reels onto the contoured surface and subject to the action of a compacting head. The compacting head is capable of being biased in the compaction direction, i.e., against the contoured surface, and adjusted by the biasing force to follow the contour of the contoured surface so that each discrete tape strip has a compacting force applied thereto which is normal to the contoured surface at the tape strip location.
