ABSTRACT:
A method and device are provided for manufacturing a unitary caul sheet to be used in creating a composite material fuselage for an airplane. Specifically, a generally tubular shaped tool having a hollow interior cavity defining a fuselage IML surface is provided. In the method, a caul sheet material such as polyurea is applied to the IML surface before an armature is inserted into the interior cavity of the tool. Then, a filler material is introduced between the armature and the caul sheet material. Further, steam is injected to form the filler material into an infrastructure. Then, the caul sheet material is cured before the tool is removed from the caul sheet material to expose the caul sheet to receive composite material.
