ABSTRACT:
A method of forming a honeycomb panel consisting of a plurality of interconnected permanent honeycomb cells that includes in one embodiment feeding two continuous sheets toward a joining station and prior to arrival, periodically creasing both sheets entirely across at timed intervals. After joining the sheets together at the joining station along parallel join lines midway between the creases, the resulting tubular structure is further sealed and expanded with pressure rollers and an expansion chamber to form the completed honeycomb panel. In another embodiment, an uncreased tubular structure is expanded by expansion plates that are inserted into each tube and permanent creases are formed midway between join lines by heating and pressing at the edges of the expansion plates.
