ABSTRACT An automated lay-up machine for the fabrication of composite structures comprises an upper carriage which carries a material handling system and a lower carriage which carries a laying head. The upper and lower carriages each have a selected number of degrees of freedom of movement to allow positioning of the material handling system and the laying head. Motors are provided to move and control the motion of the upper and lower carriages. The movement of the upper carriage is slaved to the movement of the lower carriage to allow the material handling system to dispense material to the laying head. The material handling system and the laying head can also rotate to provide an extra degree of freedom, with the rotation of the material handling system also being slaved to the rotation of the laying head. The laying head can also be independently moved normal to a work surface.
