As a three-dimensional layer enhancement technology, the Z-pin technology is suitable for manufacturing composite prepreg laminates and can also effectively improve their interlaminar properties. In order to manufacture Z-pin composite parts efficiently, this paper proposes a transitional insertion system, and according to the technical requirements of the transitional insertion process and the functional requirements of the transitional insertion platform, proposes a transition insertion plan which can insert multiple Z-pins into a carrier. A prototype machine has been designed and made, and a series of function debugging and verification experiments have been carried out on the machine. Some problems show up during the experiments, but based on the analysis of the reasons, this paper provides lots of solutions, and finally demonstrates the feasibility and practical value of the system. The results show that the system meets all technical requirements of the Z-pin insertion process. It is capable to insert multiple Z-pins into a foam carrier; as a result, the system is as much as 5 times more efficient than existing equipment, and the deviation for the insertion distance can be controlled within 0.3 mm. This Z-pin transitional insertion platform promotes the use of Z-pins in national defense and lays the foundation for commercializing the Z-pin technology.
