About

Carsten Tille is a researcher advancing the frontiers of hybrid manufacturing, with a focus on the intersection of additive manufacturing and composite tooling. His work is central to the development of Enhanced Multipoint Moulding with Additive Attachments (EMMA), a novel process that integrates 3D-printed elements with vacuum-assisted multipoint moulding for producing carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) components. Tille’s most cited study (7 citations) investigates the transferability of material extrusion from conventional to robotic fused filament fabrication, specifically using silicone build plates to enhance the EMMA process. A subsequent study (2 citations) explores the mouldability of these additively manufactured attachments, establishing foundational parameters for this hybrid technique. By addressing the critical challenge of creating precise, reconfigurable moulds for composites, Tille’s work has the potential to reduce tooling costs and lead times in high-performance sectors like aerospace and automotive. His research is notable for bridging the gap between accessible 3D printing technologies and advanced composite manufacturing, offering a scalable pathway for custom part production.
